El Coco Loco

September 7, 2012

If you follow me on Twitter, you already know about the one thing I love just as much as food – running. I’ve been running for a little over three years now (longer than I’ve been blogging!), and during that time, I’ve completed seven half marathons (13.1 miles) and one full marathon (26.2 miles!). It’s [...]

Midtown Alley BBQ!

September 5, 2012

I know what you’re thinking. I said last week that I was going to choose a winner for my Ribs Challenge. I even promised a full rundown of each of the places I visited! Wow…someone is overly ambitious! Well, friends…I told a teeny tiny fib. The full rundown (and winner!) of the Ribs Challenge will [...]

Crystal!

August 31, 2012

Happy Friday! Who else is ready for the 3-day weekend? I am! I’m so excited I could do a backflip. Sadly, I’m no Gabby Douglas, so I’ll just stick to using an obscene amount of smiley faces. Anyway, let’s talk food, shall we? I usually consider myself to be a pretty healthy person. Yes, I [...]

Ribs Challenge, Week 5: Holland Café & Meats and Boodle’s BBQ!

August 29, 2012

It’s here. It’s here! It’s Week 5, the final week of the Ribs Challenge. Over the past five weeks, I’ve visited 10 different restaurants to try their ribs. Did you read that correctly? Ten. Restaurants. I’m going to be completely honest and say that I don’t want to see another rib for a long time. [...]

J Spain’s Waffles & Wings

August 24, 2012

I have a secret, y’all. And no, it’s not that I say “y’all” all of the time. That’s hardly a secret. No. My secret is that I’m obsessed with waffles. OBSESSED. I don’t know what it is about waffles, but they’re easily my favorite breakfast food. Is it the little pockets that hold the perfect [...]

August 22, 2012

Welcome to Week four of the Ribs Challenge! It seems like this challenge just started, and now it’s almost over! Can you believe next week is the last week?

Soulard Farmer’s Market!

August 17, 2012

Good morning and happy Friday! I went to Soulard Market a few weeks ago and snapped a ton of pictures. I suppose I could craft an elaborate story to go with these pictures, but I think I’ll just let them speak for themselves.       If you’ve never visited Soulard Market, you need to [...]

Ribs Challenge, Week 3: Rib City & Bandana’s BBQ!

August 15, 2012

I really wanted to name this post “a tale of two chains”. Both places I visited this week are chains! You probably already know how I feel about chains – I’m not a huge fan of them. But my opinion is slowly changing. I still prefer to eat local, but I’ll step outside of my [...]

Thai Country Cafe

August 10, 2012

It’s no secret that I adore Thai food. Especially when it’s spicy. Remember my adventures at Pearl Café? Just thinking about those trips makes my mouth burn! Anyway, it had been way too long since I had Thai food. So when a friend suggested going to Thai Country Café, I happily agreed. Since when do [...]
