Scrambled eggs, ham, fruit, wheat toast. $12
Escena Lounge & Grill, Palm Springs CA
This was ok. They give you plenty of ham, but the scrambled eggs were my favorite. They weren’t very light and fluffy. I still love their complimentary muffins though!
Blueberry muffins with butter.
House made steel cut oats granola, house made yoghurt, summer fruits. $7
Cassava, San Francisco CA
This was pretty tasty, but honestly, there wasn’t enough food! We were SO hungry after having our tiny brunch here that we had to go to get dumplings down the street! I’m not a huge eater, so that says a lot about how small the portions are here. I can definitely eat, but I eat in small portions. Cassava’s portion were even too small for me!
Coffee with cream and brown sugar.
Sidewalk parklet, Valencia corridor.
Banh ngan lop pho mai viet quay. 25,000 VND
Paris Baguette, Ho Chi Minh City VIETNAM
I love the different shapes that all the pastries come in here! American blueberry pastries mostly come in a boring round shape. We don’t get a cool variety like the ones at Paris Baguette. It’s a shame. 😦
Iced cafe latte. 55,000 VND
Hotel de Ville de Saigon (City Hall).
Oh Bi-Rite Creamery, how I still love you! You have never failed me on delicious flavors or served weird waxy ice cream. I will say that the blueberry swirl was verging on being too sweet, but the whole thing was still delicious! Kid size $2.50

Hand-hammered cutlet, two eggs over medium, country gravy, toast and breakfast potatoes. $14
Escena Lounge & Grill, Palm Springs CA
OMG, this cutlet was ridiculously HUGE! I can usually eat A LOT, but I couldn’t even begin to finish this thing, lol. It was pretty good, maybe a bit on the dry side, but the gravy and breading were flavorful. I think my heart is screaming from the sight of this again, hehe.
Mini blueberry muffin. Delicious!
Ground turkey, swiss cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickle, secret sauce on a Kaiser roll, side salad. $15
Escena Lounge & Grill, Palm Springs CA
I love Escena. The setting is gorgeous, the service is wonderful, and it’s a great value. This turkey sandwich was pretty large and they have a lot of add-on options to personalize it to your taste.
Mini blueberry muffins.
I think the bakery items at Starbucks taste like crap (at least at the U.S. stores), but if it’s the only coffee shop open at a small airport when it’s really early in the morning, I’m not past buying one. I swear these muffins have no flavor and taste like cardboard so you really need the coffee to help wash it down.. $2.59
Starbucks, Palm Springs International Airport (PSP)
Bighorn sheep statue with oasis theme, PSP Airport.
$3.25
HNL Food Kiosk, Honolulu International Airport (HNL)
We were starving when we got to the HNL domestic terminals to fly to the Big Island, but there wasn’t much to choose from. The only thing open was a small food kiosk with generic snack options. We chose the blueberry muffin because it was large enough to share. It was ok…
Colorful carpet in the HNL domestic gates.
Glorified eggs benedict with turkey, avocado, tomato, and hollandaise. Served with fruit. $11.99
Peg’s Glorified Ham N Eggs, Reno NV
This was also gross. The hollandaise had a weird texture and flavor and the avocado had a moldy black section. The deli turkey didn’t really add anything to the dish. I liked the fruit I guess.
Beginning of the Mount Rose Summit Trail. The summit looks SO far away!
Organic flour, eggs, buttermilk, cream, sugar, yeast, butter, sea salt. $2.75
Arizmendi Bakery, San Francisco CA
I really like how this pastry isn’t too sweet. I’m slowly becoming more aware of super sweet and salty foods these days, and this was a pleasure to eat. Hehe!
Blue spiral bike rack, 16th Street. This decorative rack stands in front of the Eureka Valley branch San Francisco Public Library. Almost snail-like! 🙂
Strauss Dairy yogurt topped with strawberry, blackberry, and blueberry.
Bean & Bottle, Sonoma CA
Firepit at The Lodge at Sonoma. After dinner, we hung outside at the hotel and relaxed next to the firepit before turning in.
Reduced-fat crumble top coffee cake made with blackberries, blueberries and raspberries. $2.25
Starbucks, South San Francisco CA
It says “reduce-fat” and it certainly tastes like. I was super starving the morning that I bought this (along with the mini vanilla bean scone) and neither item really satisfied me. Pretty to look at but not much flavor.
