Italian beef sandwich Harry Caray's Seventh Inning Stretch

Sliced beef on a French roll, served with au jus, hot Giardiniera peppers, and Holy Cow!* potato chips. $11.95

“Holy Cow” is right! Those home made chips were frickin’ disgusting! They were SO greasy and soggy, gross! The Italian beef sandwich was ok. The beef had good flavor but the roll was super soft and got really soggy from the au jus. I would have preferred to be more crunchy so that it could withstand the dip a little better. I stopped eating it like a sandwich early on and used a fork and knife instead.

Project 365: Day 58

Yay, flying to Columbus Ohio to celebrate Codes’ birthday. I have mixed feelings at this point because I should really stay home, save money, and not eat and drink so much this close to the cruise but Codes is one of my best friends so I’m also glad to fly out to celebrate with him. I have an early flight so I land in Columbus around 4:30pm. It’ll be great seeing him family and “eclectic” group of friends, hehe!

Alambre taco El Huarache Loco

Mexico City style taco. Organic corn tortilla topped with bacon, chorizo asada, bell peppers, melted mozzarella cheese, cilantro, onions, and salsa. $2.75
El Huarache Loco, San Francisco

Wow, this taco had everything on it! Don’t know if I remember melted mozzarella cheese in there, but there looks to be queso fresco in there instead. This monster had SO much flavor, but I will admit that it was greasy! It’s definitely worth a try though. It’s pretty big so 2 of them would make a large enough meal for me. Mmm!

This scone looks dry, but it actually wasn’t. It was pretty moist and the blackberries gave it a nice sweetness and flavor. We pruchased this scone thinking it was on the healthier side, but I’m not entirely sure that it was healthy at all, hehe! $2.19

Project 365: Day 57

Omg, this rain sucks! It’s been raining off and on all morning and, frankly, I’m tire of it! Thank goodness I’m leaving for Ohio tomorrow. I wanted to go for a walk in the afternoon, but I guess that’s no longer in my plans. I hate getting wet outside!

Hitting the gym after work and stopping my the store to buy some stuff for Codes. Also need to stop by the bank to grab money for the house keeper tomorrow. Then Silverfox is coming over, yay!

Mom’s Tofu House, South San Francisco CA

Mmm, the cold rainy weather got me in the mood for something warm and comforting. I couldn’t resist ordering the chicken wings. Never had these before and they were SO good! I loved the flavorful sauce. It’s a little bit sweet and has a hint of spiciness to it, noms!

They definitely pile on the sauce, which is awesome! I love saucy wings!

Gyoza Ebisu

Pan fried pork pot sticker dumplings, served with gyoza sauce. $4
Ebisu, SFO San Francisco

Mmm, even though there were probably previously frozen, they still tasted good and fulfilled my fatty/salty cravings. I love gyoza, even when I buy them from an Asian market and completely butcher them while cooking. So I guess that’s why I’m forgiving even when I go out to restaurant and receive bad ones.

Lincecum sandwich Ike's Place

Ham, turkey, bacon, avocado, havarti, lettuce, tomato, dirty sauce on Dutch crunch bread. $11.11
Ike’s Place, San Francisco

Get the Dutch crunch bread, it’s SO good! I love this hearty sandwich too! It’s very meaty, but the addition of avocado helps to mellow out all the heavy proteins.
