El Pastorcito

Chorizo, Al Pastor, & Lengua Tacos

Devoured at light speed… The al pastor and lengua (tongue) were fabulous.

Diablo Shrimp

These shrimp were a good size. And, as you can see, the serving was beyond generous. There was good amount of heat in the deep […]

Mi Pilon

Roast pork, fried plantains & black beans with rice

Tender roast pork with richly flavored pan juices and fried ripe plantains with crispy caramelized bits… beyond yummy.

Braised beef with black beans and rice

The beef was a bit too salty. But, that won’t stop […]

Elderflower Syrup @ Ikea

Elderflower Drink, Elderflower Syrup, Swedish Mustard & Hazelnut Chocolate

Elderflower Drink & Syrup

We’re both fans of St Germain liqueur. (The delicate floral liqueur that hints of sweet white flowers baking in the summer sun, honey and some sort of wispy barely-there taste of citrus and lychee.) So, […]

Vosges

Vosges Gianduja Bar

Gianduja (or Gianduia) = Chocolate Hazelnut Praliné

What’s better than chocolate? Chocolate with hazelnuts… in any form. This milk chocolate bar is smooth, creamy and decadently rich. Yet, it’s still all about the hazelnuts. If nutella had a sexier, more elegant sister… it would be […]

Cadbury Turkish & Walnut Whip

Cadbury Turkish & Walnut Whip

English Cadbury Turkish

To be brief, this chocolate bar tastes like chocolate covered essence of grandmother. The overpowering floral essence combined with the artificial chocolate flavor is one brutally awful combination. The word vile hovers within grasp.

Fox Bros. BBQ Smoked Corned Beef

Smoked Corned Beef, Grainy Mustard & Onions on Texas Toast

Melt-in-your-mouth tender, smoky and not just moist, but, downright juicy. This is one incredible sandwich. Even sharing, we had a hard time finishing it. Those slices of smoked corned beef are HUGE. And, the collards are great as usual.

Paolo’s — Pistachio & Cannoli

Cannoli

Creamy, sweet, deliciousness with little bits of chocolate covered cannoli shells thrown in to make this utterly addictive. But, even the small cup gets a bit too sweet by the end.

Pistachio & Cannoli

One of us cleverly thought ahead, […]
