You’re Welcome

While I’m not a huge fan of the term “foodie”, I appreciate good eatin’ and wouldn’t want to keep these gems from you fine folk.

Austin, TX

Titaya’s - The wings and the gang dang curry are my top recs and while I have not tried everything on the menu, I assume there are no wrong turns here.

Quality Seafood - The ruby red trout, grilled oysters (especially the Rockefellers), and any dessert they have at the time are my top recs (that key lime pie and blueberry crumble with a scoop of ice cream, stupid good).

Licha’s Cantina - Cute date spot with good grub.

Brooklyn, NY

Ha Noi - Their shrimp summer rolls and pho are treasures I’m glad I found.

Peppa’s (Jerk Chicken) - Just plain good.

Scalino GP - The pasta was tops.

Chicago, IL

Opart Thai House West Town - The Gaeng Daeng reminded me of Titaya’s, so once again, a win.

Denver, CO

Illegal Pete’s - Props.

New Orleans, LA

Jacques-Imo’s - Best damn steak I ever done had and it’s a neat joint.

Omaha, NE

Oscar’s Pizza & Sports Grille - Those dang char-buffed wings stand out.

San Antonio, TX

Capparelli’s on Main - It’s hard not to recommend the classics here because they’re just damn good. Eggplant or chicken parmesan with a side of Alfredo sauce to mix in with the red sauce is my go to order. Other top recs would be the submarine sandwich, meatball sandwich- really you just can’t go wrong with this menu. They typically have particularly good chocolate cake and a solid wine selection, so ya know, treat yourself. Feels blasphemous not to mention the lasagna, amen.

ITO Ramen - Not only is everything I’ve had here two thumbs up, it’s a cute lil’ spot.

Pho Thien An - Girllllll.

Ruthie’s - It’s truly a shame that breakfast tacos aren’t more prevalent around the country and while that’s not all they do well, that’s what holds a soft spot in my heart (the green salsa is my pick).

Sushihana - They just do things right, I mean even the miso soup was uniquely delish.

Taste of Asia - The spring rolls with their hot mustard is almost too good. Almost.

Toroko Sushi - The Toro’ko roll was my fave, hard to go wrong with toro.

Philadelphia, PA

Anchan Thai Cuisine - The Gang Dang was a home run.

Dara’s Mediterranean - That chicken schnitzel is fire, a true treat n’ a half.
