Milk

We all love eating our favorite cereal and then drinking the sweet flavored milk at the bottom of the bowl.

I came across a little ice cream shop called Milk in New York City. The ice cream mimicked the sweet milk you would drink after eating a bowl of cereal. The cornflakes covering really made it feel like I was eating a better version of my favorite breakfast meal.

OTTO TACO

New York Tacos! I was walking the streets of New York and saw Otto Taco. I had to stop and get a bite to eat. I love trying Mexican food in different places. I experienced green salsa (which I never have before). The flavor was quite spicy, but really enjoyable. My taco consisted of a corn tortilla, chicken, cilantro, onion and the green salsa. It was quite messy to eat, but I would definitely recommend to others and eat it again myself. 

Pies and Pints

                                             

I had Pies and Pint a couple weeks ago in WV for the first time. The pizza was so good and I enjoyed looking at all the cool stuff on the walls. The pizza was extra cheesy and the crust tasted awesome. I'll need to go back to one in Columbus. I highly recommend to the pizza lovers!

Sushi Around the World

                                       


I experienced wonderful sushi in the middle of the ocean. My family went on a cruise out the country. Sushi was on the menu as an appetizer and I knew id like to try it. I ate each piece savoring the flavors.

The first piece of sushi was cooked shrimp laid over a bed of rice. The second one was a piece of raw salmon wrapped in a seaweed shell. Lastly, the third piece was a tuna steak laid over a bed of rice topped with greens. Soy sauce is always great to top all sushi with. I enjoyed each piece more and more as I ate the entire plate clean.
