Food eaten between 13 June & 20 June 2009

Some have said that photographing your food is terribly narcisstic¹. But then again, so is owning a blog.



We'll start off my food journey with a sushi restaurant.



I've always loved the special dressing quality sushi places put on their salads.



And here's some Miso Soup.



It was pretty good. Miso soup is good when done right.



But what is eating at a sushi place without the sushi?



I believe this is an order of Rainbow Rolls, but sushi names seem to be non-standard anyway.



Don't worry, I didn't eat all the sushi. Just... most of it.



On the road to Idaho, we stopped off at a steak place. They had some good bread.



The salad dressing was good. It was a very raspberry vinaigrette.



As someone pointed out, evidently I don't like carrots.



Then I ordered some bits of meat with sides.



It was the most ridiculously meaty meal I've ever had. The meat bits were a bit dissapointing, but the green beans tasted like meat. Apparently they were soaking in a bacon sauce long enough to taste like bacon. ...At least that made them edible.



Dude to the lack of quality, I was envious of my brother's pasta dish. When he admitted he couldn't finish it, I rushed to his aid.



Further down the road, we stayed at a motel. They had a continental breakfast.



I find that hotels all manage to have the same continental breakfast, while motels are all different. I had to stretch a little to make the bagel work, but the bread was excellent.



In retrospect, I don't know why I have a mostly empty butter on my plate. I don't remember putting butter on anything. Oh well, just a mystery of life, I suppose.



Further on our journey, we came across Lakey's Cafe. They know how to cook their patties, but they burgers tasted a bit spartan. The cheese was good, however.



That was a triple patty burger. I had to request it special. You'd be surprised how few people actually list a pound burger on their menus.



The first time around, I made the mistake of ordering just a plain shake for dessert.



I mean, there was nothing wrong with it. But there wasn't anything special about it. Still, it did take a long time to finish.



But the real fault of the shake is that I didn't get a pie, perhaps an apple pie. But don't despair, the next time we went there, I got an apple pie.



It was some pretty darn good pie.



Skipping forward a few meals... This is breakfast once we actually arrived at the cabin.



My mom thought I took too many. I laughed in her face.



This is the Jambalaya we had one night.



It wasn't actually as good as I thought it would be. I mean, on a base level it was jambalaya. But the things in it were too hard. Also, the cook didn't make it spicy enough, although that might be because wusses were eating it. I prefer my mom's version.



Sometime we went to a burger place. As is the norm, I ordered what is essentially a pound cheeseburger.



I'm not much of a fan of those thick pattied burgers. They're a bit too much like steak sandwiched between bread. I want a burger, not a steak.



And here comes a steak, so I can eat my words.



Its seasoning actually made it taste pretty good. I don't like steaks that rely on the flavor of the meat for all the flavor. Also, I guess I had corn or something.



On the way back, aside from going back to Lakey's Cafe again, we went to a place called "Rooster's." It seemed like a chain, but certainly not one that I know of. I ordered what's essentially creamed pesto chicken pasta.



It was amazing. Perhaps I'll have to look into this "Rooster's" place.

Well, that's it, that's a selection of the food I've had between 13 June & 20 June 2009.

And as always, here's an embedded slideshow of all the food I've posted to Flickr so far.
