• Happy Food

  Last weekend, Kev & I went out to eat in San Mateo. Even through the rain, it was well worth the drive.

  First, we went to Santa Ramen. It had been too long since we last went. Last time we tried to go, they just happened to be closed that weekend, and the time before that, they ran out of miso! (I was sooo bummed out). Despite not calling before we drove all the way down, they were open and they had miso! And I also sprung for the kurobuta (japanese stewed pork), since they happened to have that in stock too (they usually sell out fast). It was happiness in a bowl. Seriously. I could die happy after eating at Santa Ramen.
  

  Afterwards, we went to Sweet Breams (sounds like something got lost in translation) and got a "school" (12) of mini taiyaki. We got to choose 3 flavors, so we got nutella, azuki (red bean), and vanilla. They were pretty good, and hot, since they're made fresh. But since they're soo small, we kinda went through the it all hella fast. We easily could've done another box. At least now we know for next time.
  

  Jaymi told me about another ramen spot in San Mateo called Ramen Dojo. She said it was really good, and the cousin that she went with said she liked it better than Santa Ramen. Pure blasphemy, right?!?! Well, according to a bunch of reviews on yelp, maybe not. But I must verify these claims myself. So we're gonna have to try that place out soon.
