Pai’s food truck in Seattle on Tuesdays and Fridays. Kalua Pork and Cabbage with rice, kim chi, and mac salad. The kalua pork was excellent. Not a big fan of kim chi in general so will probably choose from their other side items next time.

Where Ya At food truck in Seattle on Tuesdays. Their Jambalaya has chicken, andouille sausage, and shrimp mixed in with rice. A soul food staple, it didn’t have the amount of spicy kick-ness one would expect. Maybe it was my first time and didn’t know to actually ask for spicy. [...]

Sun Break Cafe in Auburn, WA. Sauteed mushrooms and onions, thin sliced ham, cheddar cheese topped with asparagus and hollandaise sauce. This is my new favorite breakfast spot in the Seattle area. Omelets come in half and full sizes. Half sizes are good for 1 person. Full sizes should only [...]

Local 360 in Seattle. Fried Chicken is a chicken roulade with bacon mousse over cheesy grits and braised collard greens, topped with a sunny-up egg. Just read back that last sentence and note the highlights. Chicken, bacon, egg, fried. My goodness, the waitress said that the fried chicken is what [...]

Pork Belly

Local 360 in Seattle. Really tender pork belly. Knife wasn’t really necessary to cut. Very well done. Slaw was excellent as well. Didn’t care about the biscuit too much. I just don’t like biscuits in general. Classified as a “Small Plate” on their menu, this dish could easily be done [...]

La Medusa in Seattle. Housemade Fettucine with Mangalitsa pork loin roast, topped with an egg yolk. This dish was made by the chefs on the spot as we had arrived just as they were closing and running out of fresh ingredients. That said, it was an awesome dish. The texture [...]

Taste of India in Seattle. Karai Gosht is chicken cooked in a traditional Indian wok with onions, tomatoes, fenugreek leaves, capsicums, fresh ginger, and garlic. I’ll admit I am not an Indian food connoisseur but I will say I enjoyed this dish. Karai Gosht isn’t a curry-based dish, which is [...]

Steak in Black Pepper Sauce

Purple Dot Cafe in Seattle. The name of the dish is exactly what you get. Two generously-sized slabs of flank steak cooked Chinese-style with black pepper sauce poured on top. Served with steamed rice and vegetables. It was ok, however definitely not worth the $9.95 price tag for a lunch [...]

Pork Adobo

Kawali Grill in Seattle. If Filipino Cuisine had a Panda Express, Pork (or Chicken Adobo) would be the Orange Chicken; everyone will order it. The pork adobo at Kawali Grill is very tender, not dry at all, and just great-tasting overall. Potatoes and bell peppers round out the meal.

Kau Kau Barbeque Market in Seattle. Lunch Special is Pork Fried Rice, BBQ Pork, Roasted Pork, Steamed Vegetables. Instead of roasted pork, other choices include soy sauce chicken, roasted duck, and BBQ spareribs. I would compare the look and feel of this meal to a Panda Express 2-item combo, except [...]
