Focaccia

My new discovery for the day! I've always walked by Focaccia but never thought to try it out. Its a nice looking lunch spot where you can grab food to go. They have salads, hot food (today they had tri-tip, roasted chicken, ahi tuna... and lots of good looking sides) and sandwiches. Today I was really craving my usual - turkey, swiss and avocado. I was set on getting this before I stepped in, but was tempted at all the other selections of meats, cheeses and additions! Looks like they bake their own bread too! They even heat up the sandwich for you at no additional cost (take note of that Subway!) I stuck w/ my original choice, but I'm already thinking of what other delicious sandwich combos I can create.

Sorry Birley... you have been replaced. You are no longer my #1 sandwich lunch spot.

SLO down

Last weekend we went down to SLO to help my sister move in. SLO has certainly changed since I was there. looks all fancy now. What used to be a parking lot is now replaced w/ shops. People are still nice, weather was great and food was delicious as usual.

Couldn't make a trip to SLO and not eat at Firestone! Oh how I've missed the tri-tip sandwiches... still generous w/ the meat portions. It was so hot that day that I could only eat half of the sandwich and saved it for a nice snack when I got back home.


Steak Cobb Salad

The whole time I was in SLO I never tried Louisa's Place! Finally tried their breakfast which is what I guess they're known for.

Eggs Florentine

Giuseppe's... Italian food.

Eggplant Parm

Bucatini w/ meatballs

Risotto w/ shrimp

Tirimisu
