The Paso Robles region is an interesting conundrum for us. There region is bursting with amazing wine but the food choices are limited. As foodies, even if we go to Paso for the wine, we can’t help but want to have good food too. Don’t get me wrong, Paso has its fair share of high-end […]
This is a very fun spot at the world famous Grand Central Terminal in New York City. This bar is a popular hangout for locals waiting to catch the train after work. If you get in early you can grab a seat but it’s standing room only after the 5 o’clock whistle. It’s a fun […]

While on our foodie tour of the Northeast, Kim and I were told to check out Red’s Eats with promise of the best lobster roll in Maine. Kim also found them on every single top lobster roll list when she searched the web. We were hesitant to try them because they were about 40 miles […]
One of my favorite gourmet food trucks was Grill’em All. Yes, the same Grill’em All that won the first season of FoodNetwork’s Great Food Truck Race. They would pop in to the OC every once in a while and we would go wait in the long lines just so we could stuff our faces. About […]
