A Photoblog on what goes into Queenkv's Tummy
Lobster toast amuse bouche at ‪Chez Panisse in Berkeley.
A delicious start to an elegant dining experience. I loved how every detail, from the delicate and flavorful dishes to the friendly service made all dinners feel so special, like my graduation dinner nearly two decades ago. It was lovely to return for another special dinner.
Also, happy anniversary Chez Panisse!
Lobster craving satisfied during our weekend trip to Baja California. Just add that amazing garlic butter!
Puerto Nuevo was our first stop on our Memorial Day weekend.
We ignored guys who tried to help us find parking, brushed off street vendors selling One Direction posters and knockoff Aztec shields and walked over to La Casa del Pescador.
It’s a tasty spot with a beautiful view of the Pacific. Fierce winds prompted us to dine inside.
Soccer matches will dominate the television sets inside. Mariachi bands will haunt your table. The food will make you wish for a nap by the Pacific Ocean.
I kicked off my holiday weekend with a margarita.
Mark enjoyed a fishermen’s platter with lobster, fish and shrimp. I wanted to save my belly for the Puerto Nuevo specialty: lobster. This is what my small order looked liked. They served it with garlic butter. Some yelpers called it “liquid crack.” It made the lobster taste amazing.
Camping trips and Hollywood Bowl concerts nurtured my love of eating good food outdoors. California has beautiful weather, fresh ingredients and bold chefs.
Most people have a craving to combine all those elements at food truck events.
A few weeks ago, we discovered mobile food heaven in Palo Alto at Edgewood Eats.
We lined up at different food trucks for our entrees. Next, we claimed a patch of asphalt with our camping chairs.
Then I scarfed down this incredible Maine lobster roll from the Shack Mobile.
