Café Zupas at Summerlin

I again went to another Cafe Zupas' VIP dinner event this time at their new west side location along Lake Mead Blvd. I'm glad that Cafe Zupas is expanding, their food is so worth trying! The event was pretty much the same compared to the last event on Eastern Ave.: we chose our meal, we all ate, and a trivia game occured througout the event resulting in a lot of prizes given out!

I was impressed with the food and service of this location! If you didn't know, they make some of their foods from scratch, you can definitely taste the freshness with every bite!

I had tried the Pesto Chicken- This sandwich comes with chicken, their homemade pesto sauce, almonds, roasted sweet peppers, muenster cheese, sprouts, and tomatoes. This was definitely one of the best sandwiches I've had because I tasted many flavors at once which blended all quite well!

Wisconsin Cauliflower- Cheddar and Pepperjack cheeses are combined with the cauliflowers making a smooth, creamy texture.

For dessert, I had the creamy PistachioBerry Créme Brûlée- it's full of heart healthy pistachio and topped with fresh berries. This PistachioBerry is available for a limited time as it is part of the Summer Superfood Specials.

Here's more info from my past entry: Cafe Zupas on Eastern Ave.

Herbs & Rye

After driving pass by Herbs & Rye for many years I finally went in to see what all the hype was about this place. They serve classic cocktails that were popular during the Prohibition Era and before that time like the Gothic Age (unknown-1865) and Golden Age (1865-1900): Here's an example of of some of the drinks: I loved all the drinks they made, wasn't disappointed with any of them: Herbs & Rye also serves Italian food like flatbreads , pasta, and they're known for the steaks they cook, I'll try some next time! I only had the appetite to drink: I really enjoyed my time here especially the atmosphere of a " speakeasy feel". They get busy during the weekends so if you plan to dine in, make a reservation !

Hana Hou

During the last week of May, Bronsen and I went to Hawaii (my third trip) for vacation / family time / to eat! From my experience so far from eating Hawaiian local food, it consist an influential mix of traditional Hawaiian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Polynesian, Portuguese, and American foods. If you're fond of any those ethnic foods like me, its like food heaven in Hawaii! We flew on our favorite airline, Hawaiian Airlines . Bronsen was hoping to get a nice meal than a snack because he always has a big appetite. His wish came true, the complimentary meal came with pasta with vegetables and vinegar dressing: and a big brownie!: Hawaiian Airlines going green: One night I was craving for saimin (ramen) noodles and spam musubi , a popular Hawaiian snack simply made with a block of rice, topped with a slice of spam, and wrapped in dried seaweed. Unfortunately, you can't see the noodles, its covered by the pork. I think there was more meat than the noodles! Hawa
