Orange-pomegranate (above) and pomegranate-grapefruit (below). Huge $12 each
Mission Beach Cafe, San Francisco CA
Mmm, these things were definitely huge and gave me quite the buzz after brunch was over. Gotta love Sunday Fundays!
16th Street Bart Station, The Mission. I love the colorful Hispanic style decorations on the fences along the station.
“One layer was a chestnut mushroom, cep, dill and onion mixture. The cereal was dark-toned kasha. The moist European salmon was the substitute for sturgeon. I very well doubt that I will ever eat a coulibiac with all the most authentic ingredients but it doesn’t stop me obsessing about it.” – Mr. Edible

BBQ beef, short ribs, and chicken with 2 scoops of rice and macaroni salad. $8.75
L&L Hawaiian Barbecue, Millbrae CA
I always crave this once in a while, and I’m always inevitably disappointed. My mouth starts to tingle from all the salt and fat and I’m left feeling bloated. So why do I torture myself? Who knows, but I keep going back. I do love their macaroni salad – it’s delicious!

That’s right… a peanut butter and jelly doughnut!
Glazed Gourmet Doughnuts, Charleston SC
Ugh, this donut was more sugar than anything else! The glaze was pretty thick and everything just tasted super sweet. I was missing the bold peanut butter flavor that I assumed this donut would deliver and the strawberry jelly just added to the sugar overdose. I’m sad…
Layered with light mascarpone cream.

With macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, cornbread, and a fried pickle. $11.99
Brookwood Farms BBQ, Charlotte/Douglas International Airport (CLT)
Again, wow! The restaurants at CLT sure know how to pack your plate at really good values. Twelve bucks wouldn’t get you much at most airports, but this was a whole lotta food! I loved the mac ‘n cheese, and the ribs tasted decent but they had an odd texture. Everything together was maybe a little too salty for my taste.
Chocolate and orange glaze with homemade candied ginger.
Glazed Gourmet Doughnuts, Charleston SC
Sorry, the donut got smushed a little bit in the to-go bag but that didn’t affect the taste, hehe! The flavor was really good, but I’m not sure that I was a fan of the donut texture. It was on the doughy, dense side. I like donuts that are light, fluffy, and taste like they’ve been cooked all the way through.

Scrambled eggs, three bacon strips, and “All the way” hashbrowns topped with ham, onions, green bell peppers and cheese. $7.79
The Lowcountry Grill, Charleston International Airport (CHS)
I was hungover from the night before so I thought that this large, greasy breakfast plate would do me good but it made me feel even worse, lol! It’s nothing against the food because it was exactly what I expected – a basic, no-frills plate. It tasted a little bland, and there was so much of it! The food ended up being too rich and fatty for my tummy. 😦
Because the lights had gone out in the restaurant midway through dinner, the place was pretty dark by the end of our meal so a co-worker offered his cell phone light so I could take a photo of dessert, lol! Take my word that there is a blackberry sauce underneath that’s obscured by the shadow. The cheesecake was ok, but was more crumbly than I like. Three course dinner $30
17 North Roadside Kitchen, Mount Pleasant SC
Beach on Sullivan’s Island. I know you can’t tell from the pic, but there were actually quite a few people out on the beach enjoying the weather that day.

Fennel, saffron, chorizo. $10
Social Wine Bar, Charleston SC
This wasn’t my favorite. The mussels were on the small side and the fennel slices were too large and got in the way when navigating through the mussels. The flavors were good though, but how can you really go wrong with chorizo?!
