With garlic noodles, steamed broccoli, fish sauce. $9
Laksa, San Francisco CA
I liked the chicken more than the garlic noodles. The noodles were actually pretty bland which surprised me. Usually Vietnamese garlic noodles are packed with flavor.

White cheddar, fresh mozzarella, grana, cilantro, aleppo, and lime aioli. $14
Starbelly, San Francisco CA
I think the cilantro and lime aioli put this pizza over the top! It was a nice departure from the typical meat pizza that I normally order. I loved the corn and all the different cheese. And the thin crust was also great.

Oven roasted wings with a buffalo wing sauce. $6
Little Caesars, Palm Springs CA
These were ok. I liked that they were oven roasted instead of deep fried, but they didn’t have a great buffalo flavor. They were also very small.

Sausage, salami, pepperoni, and mushrooms. $19.50
Haystack Pizza, San Francisco CA
This pizza was very good. The crust was thicker than I normally like, but it still tasted great. I actually had this the night before I ran my first marathon (with the leftovers for breakfast right before the race, lol)!

Smoked Scottish salmon, homemade hollandaise sauce, roasted fingerling potatoes. $15.95
Spencer’s Restaurant, Palm Springs CA
This was yummy. I liked the smoked salmon and the hollandaise sauce was bright and delicious. I think the roasted potatoes were the best part though. Mmm…

Watermelon. Prix fixe dinner $29.50
Hearth Coffee Roasters, San Francisco CA
I liked this dessert enough, but the panna cotta tasted a bit chemical-y. I liked the texture of it, but the flavor was a lil off.

Coffee ice cream with chocolate fudge, coconut, and macadamia nuts. Regular $4.15
Lappert’s Ice Cream, Palm Springs CA
This ice cream was delicious. I loved all the flavors and the texture of it. My scoop was a little melty, but I didn’t mind.

$7.95
Lemonade, San Francisco CA
While I admit that this was tasty and really saucy (just how I like it), I will say that this small container of brisket is probably one the more over-priced items you can choose. They are pretty skimpy with the portion.

Half an order. Happy hour $10
Alibi Azul, Palm Springs CA
This was buttery, greasy, and very cheesy. I’m sure it is horrible for you, but I certainly enjoyed it. It was like have a spinach and artichoke dip on top of flatbread. Yum!

Two corn tortillas filled with breaded fish topped with Mexican cole slaw, chipotle baja sauce and pico de gallo. Served with rice. $9.95
Loco Charlie’s Mexican Grill, Palm Springs CA
These tacos were much larger than I expected. The fish were slightly greasy, but they tasted great and they definitely don’t skimp on the toppings. The rice, on the other hand, was really lame and dry.

Shrimp, green papaya, basil, carrots, peanuts, fried shallots. $8.75
Laksa, San Francisco CA
I liked this salad. It was crisp and fresh. I thought their fish sauce was especially salty, but it tasted fine when you mixed a little with the salad (definitely don’t use the entire container). I especially liked the fried shallots as garnish.

Fried tubes and tentacles. $12
Haystack Pizza, San Francisco CA
These were pretty greasy, tough and chewy, and oddly bland. So I guess it’s safe to say that I did not like them one bit. Ew!
