Food & Drink
Food brings people together. It makes people happy, it provides sustenance, it’s motivation, its an Experience. Here I share recipes, food, drinks, locations, and thoughts on food. I have made and can vouch for the recipes shared, unless otherwise noted.

Cris and John – Dallas, Texas
This Vietnamese fusion street food with mexican flavors is absolutely Incredible. I had the Birria Tacos with Angry Pho, and Cafe Flan for dessert. 10/10 recommend.
Jambo Cafe – Santa Fe, New Mexico
African Caribbean fusion cuisine that exceeds all expectations. Try the special, whatever it is, and try the rum pecan pie. You wont be disappointed.
Banh Mi Boys –Metairie, Louisiana
This banh mi shop in Louisiana is a hidden gem. Its located near an airport and next to a gas station, about 20 minutes from downtown New Orleans. They use good French bread in true Nola style. The golden crispy crunch of the bread with the fresh vegetables inside… chefs kiss*
Gwennies Old Alaska Restaurant – Anchorage, Alaska
I stumbled upon this place on my journey from Florida to Alaska. Had my first non-protein bar/ jerky meal in a week. Huge strawberries & whipped cream pancakes with thick slabs of bacon…. unforgettable.
Recipes
Banana Pudding
A southern favorite, this recipe for banana includes condensed milk, cream cheese, vanilla pudding, and whipped cream. Absolutely decadent.
Baked Ratatouille (confit bayaldi)
Impress your kids with this ratatouille recipe. Even better, let them be the little chef and watch Ratatouille while you eat. Magical.
White clam sauce
Seriously amazing sauce. Add to any pasta dish
Hummingbird Cake
As featured in Southern Living Magazine, a traditional Jamaican dessert. Truly delicious.
