Brazilian, Ethiopian & Thai

I was there late last week. The steaks don’t really come with sides. And the duck ramen i had was the only bad meal i had on the trip. The stock tasted like generic vegetable stock paste with a little Chinese spice & the noodles weren’t anything you really wanted to eat. It may improve. I...

Do any of you have any reason to think this might open this month?

I took a date to the chefs table a couple years ago. As an executive chef myself & someone that seeks out adventures in dining around the world, I’d call V&A’s one of my top 10 experiences. It’s expensive but honestly, in a bigger food scene (NY, Chicago, Seattle) you’d pay more. The service is...

Is this in Strasburg, PA? Would you mind filling in the ignorant (me) on what exactly the history of this specific train is?

These are two of my Disney World treasures. Both from Magic Kingdom. The Josh Agle piece is over 3’ square, signed & numbered and the Fulton piece is a signed & numbered giclee of 95 pieces. I also have a couple collectible mugs from Trader Sams.

Ice cream at the food industry level is super cheap. It can be as cheap as 3 gallons for $15 or so, if you buy enough. I don't have an answer as to the availability of the AYCtE Shake at the Plaza, but it's not as expensive on their end as it seems.

I started that evening at Trader Sam's and then headed over to Kona, where I was surprised to be able to get the Lapu Lapu. To this day, I can't recall what I had for dinner.

I had the standard DDP.

I was served a Lapu Lapu in the pineapple on my trip two weeks ago at Kona as my specialty drink.

When I read your post, I immediately thought of "Feed the Birds". I dunno if it makes sense, but I'll go with it.
