Mitica ChocoCherries

Mitica ChocoCherries (Handmade In Aragon, Spain)

These dark chocolate hand dipped candied cherries are divine. Do you love a chocolate covered cherry? But, do you think to yourself, “I wish there was significantly less sugar and syrup.”? If so, these are for you. The saccharine sweet syrup is completely gone. […]

Korean @ H Mart Food Court

Haemool Dolsot Bab (or, Haemul Dolsot Bap)

Sizzling hot, the seafood (the weak spot) hides under the vegetables.

The perfectly crisp rice was the highlight.

Each meal comes with a portion of kimchi and sprouts.

Sweet Rice

Green Tea Shaved Ice

Sweet green tea shaved ice hides under sweet red beans, vanilla ice cream, cubes of chewy Korean rice cakes (tteok, or ttuk, or dduk), corn flakes and almond slivers.

Some are packed and ready to go. […]

The El Felix

The Chips

Super thin and crisp, we couldn’t stop eating these.

Take care, you might just make a meal out of the chips and salsa.

Both were very tasty. But, the salsa verde disappeared first.

Gỏi Xoài (Green Mango & Dried Shrimp Salad)

This lightly dressed salad lets the unique taste and texture of green mango shine.

Beautifully bitingly fresh, this is just the thing we want to eat as the temperature rises.

Tender and delicious, that brisket was pure pleasure to eat. But, as usual, the magic is in that liquid of the Gods. It’s pure heaven. Heavenly soup perfection…

Fung Mei

Yes, that’s kimchi in the front with hot and sour soup in the back. That’s not something you get to say every day. So, I’m sayin’ it while I can. This place is equal parts weird, fun, and funky.

There’s more than a little bit […]

JD’s Bar-B-Que

JD’s BBQ Brisket & Ribs

This is one of those occasions when the image fails to capture the moist and tender nature of these generous slices of brisket. A little drizzle of sauce was added. But, the beef was quite tender and moist without any […]
