Return of Rhodies BBQ

Friday, July 30th, 2010

In one of those moments that make you question your sanity, just a little for a sec, I’m on my way to have lunch at my cheap chinese favorite, when I see signs for Rhodies BBQ.  This is confusing because a couple years ago, they closed up shop without much notice, saying they were still open out in marysville North Bend, and available for catering.  Someone else eventually moved into the space, but their BBQ wasn’t as good.  I had to try it out, so I stopped by.  The menu is definitely the Rhodies I remember, but the guy behind the counter wasn’t recognizable.  The food tastes right; certainly better than the not-Rhodies that was there for a while.

Nom Nom.

Lunch Today – deep fried pepper burger

Thursday, May 6th, 2010

Lunch today was the deep fried pepper burger at Zayda Buddy’s, with tater tots.  It was quite tasty.  They only deep fry the patty part, the bun is just toasted =p  It was massive, and the tater tots (an extra $2 seems a bit excessive, but whatever) were the properly done that gets them nice and crunchy on the outside, while still moist and delicious on the inside.   Still so many things to try on that menu, and not a single one of them ‘healthy’.

Zadya Buddy’s does a good mac and cheese

I’m quite intrigued at the notion of a mac and cheese pizza, but didn’t try it on the first visit, getting the ‘hot dish’ mac and cheese instead. It was quite tasty.  Lots of cheesy goodness, crumbly crunchy bread bits on top that weren’t overdone, and a portion size that left me with something on my plate even after I felt properly stuffed.  All in all a good meal was had.

The End is here

at least for my Signature Hot Chocolate drinking days.  The store that promised to stock up just for me let me know that their stock up order was refused, and they are out stock now and forever more =(

Nestle == evil?

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Nestlé simply provided the FDA with all information required under the law. As the article points out, Nestlé’s practice is standard within the food industry.”
Sounds like Nestle is proud of being no better than the worst, which I’m pretty sure makes them equal to the worst.  Doesn’t sound like something I’d be proud of, but then again, I didn’t admit to deliberately endangering the lives of my customers because I thought the law would let me get away with it.

At least that’s what I think they said. YMMV

Tasty Safety

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Scientists have discovered a way to make edible food safety sensors, that could be implanted in fresh veggies, and eaten right along with the food when the time comes. Just wait till the genemod people start building veggies with the sensors already built in.
