bodega

Hey,

Grabbed a quick bite from JJ's Sandwich Shop downtown.

Grilled Chicken Sandwich and a Coffee.

They threw in the Orange for free. Wasn't that nice of them?

Hey,

Lady and I went to 8oz Burger Bar for the first time. We started with the Grilled Artichoke appetizer, which was fantastic, maybe the best bite of the whole meal.

Main course, I went with the Lamb Burger with a side of Baby Broccoli.

Becky had the classic 8oz Burger with Thick Cut Garlic Fries.

Overall, everything was pretty good. I like how 8oz has a full bar and all the sides and apps looked great but in terms of Burgers, Umami still has the edge.

It comes down to the Bun. These were too big and fluffy, each bite had so much Bread and you lose some flavor.

The Meat Party Continues

Hey,

Lunch time. Picked up some goodness from Mendocino Farms downtown.

A Sandwich Study of Heat.

Turkey, Smoked Gouda, Avocado, Chili Aioli, Jalapeno Relish, Tomato, Romaine on Rustic White. Served with Chipotle Salsa and some Rotini Pasta Salad.

Boom goes the dynamite.

I've been on a real Sandwich kick lately. Can't wait to try Bay Cities Deli.

Just try and stop me

second tour of duty

Hey,

Went back to Xoia for another taste.

Curry Tofu Banh Mi, oh my.

I'm slowing working my way through the menu.

Welcome to the Team

Hey,

"I'll tell you what, when we get through fucking with these Koreans, me and you go to Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles, on me. Think about it now"

The Carol C. Special. Everything a growing boy needs.

Finger Lickin'

cheese steaks

Hey,

The meat party continues. I went to Hoagie Steak Out in Hollywood for a little taste of Philly. My buddy went with the 3 Pepper Scarface.

I opted for the Teriyaki Samurai (with Chicken add $1)

And an order of Cheese Fries to wash it all down.

These bad boys were awesome. Huge, lots of flavor and super satisfying. It's really the great Bread that makes the Steak sing. Most sandwiches start around $5.75.

If you are looking for a challenge try the Braveheart.

And in case you are wondering.

I ate it all. That Samurai didn't stand a chance.

No Leftovers

off the wagon

Hey,

Over the last few months I have been rethinking my views on meat. I've added some Poultry back into my diet and things are going good.

Last week I joined some friends in Korea Town for a Birthday Dinner. We met at Soot Bull Jeep, a Korean BBQ joint. My friend ordered for the table. The various cuts are cooked table-side over the charcoal grill.

It smelled and looked incredible.

So I dove in. My first taste of Beef in 10 years.

I don't know what to say. The food was great and now I have a taste for flesh. Watch out.

Welcome back to the Dark Side
