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 […]
Upstate New York is abuzz in autumn. So much to do, to see, everything crisp and beautiful. People flock to the farms to fill their senses with the season. Lakeside Farms [336 Schauber Rd, Ballston Lake, New York 12019] has got a lot to offer. They have a gift shop, […]
On my journey home from Syracuse I decided to break up the trip by visiting Binghamton. I had never been before, but heard that the city is known for spiedies: sandwiches filled with marinated cubes of meat. Not far off the highway Spiedie & Rib Pit [1268 Upper Front Street Binghamton, […]
There are a lot of peculiar places in the desert and if you know which stones to uncover you will discover some bizarre hidden gems. From San Diego, LA, Joshua Tree, or anywhere in southern California, make your way to Palm Springs for lunch time. It’s a perfect jump off […]
You should have a lifetime dedicated to explore the beauty of nature, but the world doesn’t work that way. Busy schedules allow most people two days off, and half of the second one is often spent thinking about the week ahead. So you are planning on visiting one of the […]
An ultimately killer sandwich, ya just can’t miss it when you’re in Budapest. Bors GasztroBar [Budapest, Kazinczy u. 10, 1075 Hungary] is located in the Jewish Quarter, packed with people inside and loitering around outside. There are only a handful of stools, and nowhere to speak about outside to take […]
Smørrebrød is to Denmark what hamburger is to America, an essential food item to eat while visiting the country. What is a smørrebrød, you ask? It translates to ‘open faced sandwich,’ and these bad boys come in many shapes and sizes, and can be found in a variety of eateries […]
I don’t normally make plans to eat at the mall, but Sammy D’s Cafe is a joint to make exceptions for. We had just hiked Buck Mountain and were hungry and in the mood for something hearty. Located in the Lake George outlets [Coleman Factory Outlets 1454 U.S. 9 Lake […]
I feel like I stumbled upon some enchanted grandma’s cottage, there is certainly some down home deliciousness to be had at this café (705 Columbia Tpke East Greenbush, NY 12061). To get to the restaurant you have to walk through the Country Trunk store filled with assorted jewelry, clothes, and […]
The Catskills have just got the funkiest places; I recently had a fantastic lunch at Last Chance Cheese Antiques and Café in the town of Tannersville (6009 Main Street, Tannersville, NY 12485). We had just come from a hike and were hungry (story of our lives) and this place so […]
Rainbow Drive-In (Cheap Eats, Lunch/Dinner, Honolulu) A quick, cheap, casual dinner turned out to be pretty tasty at this drive-in. The loco-moco is a keystone in Hawaiian cuisine. It’s not exactly my type of dish, so I was happy when Jeff decided to try it out. It consists of a […]
Kalapawai Market (Sandwiches, Cheap Eats, Lunch [or early dinner], Windward) If you find yourself Windward and you’re looking for a tasty sandwich, you gotta stop at this market. These sandwiches rival my beloved Cardona’s and those back in NYC. I was skeptical reading such rave reviews, but they were dead […]
Looking for lunch in Saratoga? Try Mrs. London’s, and make sure you have room for epic dessert. Their sandwiches are premade, some are heated up, some served cold, both I sampled were delish! The smoked chicken Panini was crispy and gooey while the chicken salad was dense and luxurious. While […]
I had a great time in the Catskills the other day with a friend meandering about roads watching the leaves change their colors. First stop was Kaaterskill Falls for a worthy little hike. The lower trail begins with Bastion Falls, and leads you to the bottom of NY’s tallest two-tiered […]
