Poke is quite possibly my favorite food on earth. I first discovered its wonder on Oahu last year at Tanioka’s, and have been addicted ever since. Raw cubes of fresh fish marinated in all sorts of goodies served on a bed of rice, simple perfection. It doesn’t get much fresher […]

Comfortably tucked into the scene on the main drag in Hilo, we found the perfect spot to eat our Sunday lunch. Many places are closed Sundays, but Dragon Kitchen Sushi [330 Kamehameha Ave, Hilo, HI 96720] was on my list of places to eat no matter what day it was […]
I almost didn’t go thinking ‘oh, it’s just another farmers market.” I was only on Big Island for five days and there is so much to do, so much to see, and I’ve been to farmers markets before. I am so very glad I decided to dedicate some of my […]
I love unique food experiences, trying out different types of cuisines, keeping it interesting when dining out. I’ve tried Korean food many times, but Namu Korean BBQ [1770 Central Ave, Albany, NY 12205] was my first experience with Korean BBQ. Outside: generic strip mall, Inside: trendy, spacious, clean. Korean pop […]
As Moab’s oldest restaurant, Milt’s Stop & Eat [356 E Mill Creek Dr, Moab, UT 84532] has to be doing something right. The little eatery opened in 1954 and if you didn’t know any better you might believe time has stopped. Order your food from the take out window to […]
Service is really important in restaurants. When a place has really good friendly service, you feel even better about the food. When the food is just as great as the service, what could be better? We felt right at home in Sweet Cravings Bakery and Bistro [397 N Main St, […]
You need a big ‘ol breakfast early in the morning to get your day started right for hiking and adventuring around Moab. Head to Love Muffin Café [139 N Main St, Moab, UT 84532], they’ll give you what you need. First thing you may notice is the funky local art […]
This is the place to get mole. Everyone is waiting on line outside because they know about the mole. It was cold, we had hiked all day, but none of that mattered. We were thankful they offered us a hot cup of cider to hold onto and sip as we […]
I’m really fascinated by Salt Lake City. I was in town for such a short time it was hard to get a grasp on the deeper feel of it all, but I liked what I saw. You can’t drive around the city without noticing the Mormon Headquarters, the state capitol, […]
This November I went on an absurd road trip starting in Las Vegas, all the way around Utah, through Arizona and ending at the Grand Canyon. It was exhausting, it was glorious, and it was everything in between. Our first stop after Las Vegas was Zion National Park, two and […]
Las Vegas is a foodie dream town! There are endless options to choose from, it’s almost a daunting task to pick out a restaurant. Don’t fret, I’ve found the one you’ll want to dine at. Lotus of Siam [953 E Sahara Ave A5, Las Vegas, NV 89104] is a Thai […]
Trendy, affordable, and delectable, Carson Kitchen [124 S 6th St, Las Vegas, NV 89101] should be your dinner choice before exploring Fremont Street. The restaurant in located on a quiet corner, but it’s anything but hushed inside. The place was packed, but we scooted in to a table for two […]
This is one of those places where everything was perfect. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does – treasure it. Dinner at Island Creek Oyster Bar [500 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA 02215] was one of the most memorable meals I’ve had in a long time. Reservations weren’t available until […]
On our trip to Boston we only stayed in town for one night. On a Saturday morning we left at the crack of dawn from Albany – it was dark, frosty, and the sky was sprinkled with stars. The drive is just under three hours on I-90, and we were […]
A little Italian bakery almost out of time, perhaps not too much has changed since it opened in 1928. If you’re visiting Utica or just passing through, make an effort to stop at Florentine Pastry Shop [667 Bleecker St, Utica, NY 13501] for something sweet. Everything looked and smelled delicious […]
