One 4 ounce patty, ground daily all natural Niman Ranch beef. “Everything on it” with lettuce, tomato, red onions, Super sauce, and cheese. $5.50
Super Duper Burgers, San Francisco CA
I think my favorite part of these burgers is the nice crust on the grilled patty and the Super sauce. They are just so easy to eat and packed with amazing flavor. Noms!
With 2 eggs, spicy grits, and toast. $13.95
Market Lunch, Washington DC
This plate was delicious! I just wish that the piece of rockfish was a little bigger. The grits had a little kick to them which was lovely. This place gets packed, but I was able to snag a corner of the communal table right in front.
“Tradition” tasting menu €65
Tordomatto, Rome ITALY
These were really yummy bites that arrived after the main dessert course. They were delicious and had were in a variety of textures which made it fun to eat while reflecting on the lovely meal that was consumed. Mmm…
The bill came in this cute metal box.
$1.95
Tung Sing Restaurant, San Francisco CA
Meh, this isn’t the best but it was close to my old apartment so it was convenient to grab one on the way home.
$9.99
Hyderabadi Biryani Corner, Herndon VA
Omg, this biryani was SO delicious! I loved the roasted chicken pieces underneath. They were very tender, juicy, and flavorful. The long-grain rice was also cooked and seasoned perfectly.
Salmon, white tuna, cilantro, avocado, and masago inside with yellowtail, jalapeno, and ikura on top. $16
Kumo Sushi, Herndon VA
This roll was good. It wasn’t the best and it could have been more fresh, but I liked all the fish in it. The service at this restaurant was really awkward though. Ugh…
Potato puree, pan gravy, lingonberry, pickled cucumber. $20
Plaj Restaurant, San Francisco CA
Mmm, fancy Swedish meatballs! I loved the gravy and lingonberry combo. And the meatballs were really tender. The pickled cucumbers were a nice addition.

Plajer cocktail. $12
Lemon and garlic yogurt, bacon. RW Deal, $35 per person
Ambar, Washington DC
This was really delicious. I loved the yogurt sauce and the brussels sprouts were very flavorful.
Rice, steamed vegetables, roll, Treacle toffee ice cream. Complimentary
Rome (FCO) to Chicago (ORD), United Airlines
This wasn’t very good. The chicken curry was ok, the rice was dry, the radicchio salad was gross, the roll was a throwaway, and the ice cream was marginal. Hmm… United can definitely do better.
Kiddie cup $4.99
Haagen Dazs, San Francisco CA
I still think the ice cream here is overpriced especially when I can go to the grocery store and buy more for cheaper. I had never seen this flavor before so I had to try it. It was actually really good! I guess part of the cost is getting unique flavors that you can’t buy at the store.
Candied house-cured bacon, bourbon pecan caramel. $14
Mulebone, Washington DC
Mmm, this was really good! The fried chicken was nice and juicy and the bacon was crispy and flavorful. This was definitely on the sweet side, but the flavors were great.
Pine nuts, limoncello. “Tradition” tasting menu €65
Tordomatto, Rome ITALY
This was a super creative dessert, but I’m not sure that it was successful overall. I loved that it mimicked the look of an egg, but it didn’t feel satisfying on the mouth. The gelatin cellophane was odd and didn’t allow the other ingredients to blend. I liked the flavor of the dessert though.
Extra lil’ palette cleanser.
