A personal blog detailing dining and eating experiences
First place I’ve been to in Chelsea Market.
I gotta say, even though they only had cold lobster rolls (I really like the hot ones better), this cold one was really good (the best one so far). Also their New England clam chowder was great (no food poisoning from any of the food!).
Would come back here again.
We went to this place on our second night in Mexico City.
It is highly suggested by many that if it is your first time in Mexico City to go visit this place.
For drinks, mainly got Aperol Spritzs.
For appetizers, got the shrimp cocktail and the tuna sashimi. Thought both were excellent. Also got the clam chowder (would probably not get it again).
For the main course, shared a few things. Got the tuna tostados, the king fish tacos, the octopus, and the whole grilled fish.
For deserts, sampled the apple pie with ice cream, the strawberry cake, the flan, and the fig cake. Would get the apple pie again if I had to choose one.
Tried this place to get a lobster roll in Boston, located at Quincy Market.
The combo also came with clam chowder. I will say the roll was alright (probably wouldn’t get it again here since it wasn’t as sweet as I thought it would be. Also seemed like they already added lemon to it, which is something I definitely don’t like). Clam chowder was good.
There are other lobster roll places in Quincy Hall. Would probably try those out next time.
We had a late lunch for our trip to Hilo, and fortunately this place was still open.
For drinks, had a Big Island Coffee (Kalua, macadamia nut liquor, creme de cocoa, baileys, and coffee). Also has a lychee rum martini. Both drink were great, and what I wanted 🙂
For the appetizer and starter, I had the clam chowder and see fried calamari. I thought the chowder was a bit too salty, and the calamari was too fried. Didn’t hate either of them though.
For the main course, I got the mandarin bbq pork ribs, with a side of pesto pasta. I enjoyed the ribs. The pasta tastes good, but I think the crushed nuts texture was a little weird (but like I said, tastes was good).
Lastly, thought the view in this restaurant was great.
First restaurant I ate in Hawaii (Kona). It’s in the main town in Holualoa.
Overall, I did get a tourist vibe from the place. However, the drink I ordered, the toasted pina colada, was really good, and the perfect first drink in Hawaii.
For the main course I ordered a clam chowder and seafood pastaZ the pasta was great. The clam chowder was a bit too thick (the last picture posted was a ultimate Bloody Mary with a slider and bacon attached to it, which I did not ordered, but thought was really cool).
Definitely would come back to this place, especially for Happy Hour (which ends at 6pm).
For drinks, I ordered the lemon drop (it was so good I got 4 of them!). They’re only $6 during happy hour.
For the appetizers ($8 each), the shrimp cocktail and the calamari were great choices.
For the main, I got the $30 prime rib with the clam chowder. The clam chowder was great, it the prime rib was just ok (I’ve had better). I think I would order something else next time.
