I have just returned from a cross country road trip that began in the little city of San Francisco, I then journeyed through Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona, Alamogordo and Roswell New Mexico, Lubbock Texas, Oklahoma City Oklahoma, Little Rock Arkansas, Memphis Tennessee, even hit a piece of North Carolina, the Smokey Mountains, up to West Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey and then back to New York City! It was a pretty long and arduous journey, but I'm back alive, in one piece, and I honestly don't regret any moment of it.
Of course this is my FOOD BLOG, so I will be updating you with some glorious images and reviews of all the interesting places that I ate at. Of course the next few posts will be updates from that trip, so I hope you will enjoy them!
We'll start with San Francisco!
CHOWDER - SF (2.5/5 stars)
Down at the Fisherman's Wharf, I tried this place called, "Chowder". Since this is the bay area, seafood around here should be pretty tasty and fresh no? So I wanted to try the Clam Chowder in their famous sourdough bread. Probably not a good idea to come here to try it... it's better in Boston. Hah. The decor of the whole place was great, the staff super friendly. The whole interior of the little shop was cute and inviting, but the food was just bad. The clam chowder was SUPER salty. I don't know if they think that the sour dough bread had to be consumed fully in order to counter balance the taste- but I wasn't about to eat the whole piece of dough just to get the taste of salt out of my mouth!
TRISH'S MINI DONUTS - SF (3/5 stars)
Next, I also tried this little donut place called, "Trish's Mini Donuts". I thought it was a cute place and the donuts actually ended up tasting really great. It was semi-sweet, there was sugar coated around it, but it wasn't nasty sweet. One the down side, I think the donuts were a little too oily for my taste, and it could have been a bit fluffier- but hey that's just me.
Okay, I'm going to try to limit each post with 2-3 different restaurants, since these are all going to be short blogs!
IN & OUT BURGER - SF (2/5 stars)
Okay, so I don't get what the hype is about this place. I mean it was good, but it wasn't GODLY. Everyone and everyone always raved about how great this place was, but honestly- is it because you haven't been to Five Guys before?! It was decent, I tried the "secret" burger- the "Animal-style" burger- but it was just mediocre. Yeah it was juicey, and the price is good for the meal, but the fries they gave me were cold and stale and just didn't cut it to any standard that people have given me. So all in all, I had a cruddy experience here and I don't think I'd ever crave this place ever again or want to go back. That's all. For all of you people that hate what I just wrote, I'm sorry, but that was my truthful experience. However, I do encourage you guys to go try it for yourselves.
