Corn beef with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing on grilled marble rye.
Royalicious Bagel Bakery, Charles Town WV
Mmm, this sandwich was delicious and really big! The corned beef tasted great and they certainly didn’t skimp on the meat or the sauerkraut. I also liked the marbled rye bread.
Nationals Park, Washington DC.
Mozzarella sticks, spinach and artichoke dip, cheese quesadilla grande, boneless wings. $12.89
Applebee’s, Charles Town WV
This was disgusting and I’m actually ashamed I ordered this to eat all by myself. Hey, I like a greasy appetizer as much as the next guy, but everything on this plate was really low quality and tasted horrible. I definitely didn’t finish it and swore I wouldn’t return to Applebee’s during my trip.
Corona light beer. $4.39
Brunswick Railroad Museum, Maryland.
Served with fries, 2 hushpuppies, and drink.
Long John Silver’s, Charles Town WV
I was a bit confused when I received this because I couldn’t tell which piece was fish and which was the chicken. They looked exactly the same. And oddly enough, they tasted the same too, and were disgustingly greasy. I don’t think I’ll ever order this again or even return to a Long John Silver’s. Even the hushpuppies were super greasy. At least the fries were good.
Downtown Charles Town.
Thai hot and sour soup with coconut milk, chicken, galangal, mushrooms, red onion, tomato, kaffir lime leaves, and lemongrass. Sprinkled with cilantro and green onion. $8.95
Thai Thani Kitchen, Seattle WA
This soup was very good and a much better value than the fresh rolls (although they still skimped on the chicken). It was very flavorful with a bit of a kick.
Two enchiladas topped with mole sauce, chopped onions and cheese. Served with rice and beans. $8.95
Mi Degollado, Charles Town WV
Gross, this food was horrible! I don’t know what they’re thinking but this does not successfully pass as decent Mexican food. The tortillas used for the enchiladas were sad and the mole sauce was bland. Even the margarita didn’t taste very good. Welcome to West Virginia I guess…
Margarita. Medium $6.30
Chips and salsa. Complimentary
Charles Town Races.
Spicy Diablo: hornitos, ancho reyes, cassis, lime juice, simple syrup. $9
The Leary Traveler, Seattle WA
Mmm, I really liked the Spicy Diablo. It had a nice kick to it that wasn’t too overwhelming. The atmosphere at this bar was also relaxed and the servers were on top of it without being intrusive.
Margarita.
Egg, ham and cheese on a jalapeno cheddar bagel. $6.49
The Great American Bagel, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA)
The sandwich was ok. The bagel was a bit dense and chewy for my taste and I wish they could have added a bit of cream cheese or something. The ham was also of low quality.
Side sausage with whole grain mustard and sauerkraut. $5
The People’s Pub, Seattle WA
Who doesn’t love a side of sausage?! Lol. This was very tasty and I like how they make slices along the length of the currywurst.
Cheesy sauce dip.
Green leaf lettuce, chicken, shrimp, basil and cilantro freshly rolled in rice paper. Served with peanut sauce. $5.95
Thai Thani Kitchen, Seattle WA
I was not impressed. These rolls are all lettuce with very little chicken and shrimp. It actually had only half a shrimp and a sliver of chicken for each piece. Now that’s sad! The peanut sauce was very thick – not my favorite but some people prefer that consistency.
This place is totally relaxed and the service in friendly. The beers are pretty tasty too! $5
Bad Jimmy’s Brewing Co., Seattle WA
With Scooter sauce, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, onions. $4.95
Scooter’s Burgers, Seattle WA
This burger wasn’t very pretty, but it was decent I guess – perhaps on the greasy side though. I’m not sure what Scooter sauce is made of, but it seemed like plain mayonnaise to me.
Served with the half slab rib combo. $17
The Boar’s Nest, Seattle WA
Omg, these fried mac and cheese balls were amazing! They had a great crispy shell and the center was still molten and gooey with all the cheesy goodness. The baked beans were good too, but the fried mac and cheese certainly out-shined everything else.
