Burger Joint

By | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

Jaime, the gourmet :-), says that this burger is his latest preference.  He tried it here in the San Francisco Airport last year and told us about it so we tried it for ourselves

We were in the San Francisco airport so I am not sure if prices are a bit higher here

Dad is very disciplined, he chooses always healthy so no fried – he did not enjoy it! haha!!  But he liked the lima beans on the side

Jaime also trying to be healthy – did not enjoy too! 🙂

Peace Love and Blowouts at the Dry Bar

By | Beauty, Travel | 2 Comments

When we arrived in Dallas, Mom was looking for a salon to have a blow dry.  There were several in the mall but many would not take her because she did not have an appointment.  I am so glad we stumbled into this place that took Mom in immediately.  All they do is blow outs!  LOVE THIS PLACE!


Some candy by the bar 🙂

Tei An Dallas

By | Foodie, Travel | One Comment

Thanks to this magazine we found in the hotel room, we sort of used it as a guide 🙂

We followed several in the magazine and went to Tei An.

It was in this complex with several other restaurants

We actually went without reservation and they turned us down because we did not have one and they were quite full and busy.  So we made a reservation and came back for dinner 🙂 I am so glad we went back because this was one of my favorite places

tei-an-2.JPG

It’s Japanese fusion

We were so intrigued by the Kakiage and was feeling bad we could not order it.  Apparently it has something to do with the oil.  The chef wants to oil to be fresh and so he will not cook anymore at a certain time once the oil is stale

Loved the tempura – the batter was potato chips 🙂

I don’t eat uni but I love risotto and this was really good!!

tei-an-11.jpg

I ordered the soba risotto!!! YUMMY!!!!!!

 

While everyone is into the ramen craze, we are moving on to Soba! atleast in this restaurant 🙂
