Honest, detailed reviews from my travels and closer to home.

Great food and great service: the Fried chicken egg Benedict and a pancake to share.

Great burgers and fries: the bacon-loaded BUTA and the TAMAGO with a runny egg.

A Hawaiian mixed plate with BBQ chicken and chicken katsu, a tasty pulled pork sandwich, and sauces on the side.

My favorite meal in all of California: fresh lobster and seafood burritos and a super friendly chef-owner.

Phenomenal stone-baked pizza, amazing service and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Fantastic Thai food and excellent service: crispy garlic chicken, pad thai and panang curry.

Fresh wood-fired, build-your-own pizza, and a cheese-free BLT with bacon jam that became my favorite.

Some of the best Thai food in Alaska: rich panaang curry with beautiful butterfly pea flower rice.

A must-stop on the way to Zion: a gorgeous pastry case, a striped chocolate croissant and coffee.

The Murder Burger, a half-pound garlic burger, and fantastic pork enchiladas just 5 minutes from Zion.

Excellent burgers, killer bacon, crispy mac and cheese balls and a $28 all-you-can-eat deal off the Strip.

A fresh, hot Southern breakfast buffet and honestly my favorite pancakes ever.

Korean Mexican fusion done right: crispy bulgogi egg rolls, kalbi beef enchiladas and a quesadilla with mac salad.

Cuban bread done right since 1915, and a dessert case that makes you renegotiate your order.

Chipotle shrimp, soft shrimp chimichangas with cheese sauce, and great service on a quiet Sunday.
