I have been looking for a good deli sandwich place for years since the only one in Austin closed down. I just do not understand why people go to Jason's Deli. So freaking dry.

Love Reubens so much. I miss them.

Also had ||lox and cream cheese|| the day before.  On toast, because the ||bagels|| suck here, and I can't find ||Temp-Tee|| brand cream cheese in my local supermarket; but again, the excellent NW Coast salmon makes up for it.

One thing I miss about Winnipeg - there are hardly any jews in Alberta.  Which means no good delis. :(

Bagel shops here in the midwest suck mightily.  Not even any good chains.  I'd kill for an Einstein Bros. or Manhattan Bagel shop nearby.  Best I can get is from Panera :mellow:

Bits and ends of (((Nova Lox))) with cream cheese, Philadelphia brand as (((Temp-Tee))) doesn't seem available out here, on toasted rye bread with sliced onions (alas, no capers laying around).  A quite delicious, and probably lower-cal substitute, where the bagels suck, as they do in the PNW.

Plus pickled asparagus and radishes on the sisde -- I am really going crazy for radishes these days :mmm: they just hit the spot and serve as an excellent vehicle for saot-- washed down with a fresh 2L bottle of (((seltzer water))).

Bought White Castle for the kids. They destroyed the 30 slider box I bought.

I haven't had White Castle in a while. :hmm:

Was talking with a colleague the other day about ice cream (he doesn't care for it...I consider myself a connoisseur).  He said that sometimes though, he would have just plain vanilla and mix in some regular peanut butter with it.  Intrigued, I tried this myself...some Tillamook Vanilla and JIF Extra-Crunchy.

It has changed my life.  :)

I was at the Italian grocery store on the weekend to buy supplies for home-made pizza (very good, as always).

On a whim, I saw a bag of local artisanal beet chips, named "Droppin Mad Beets" :frusty:

But still, I love me some beets, so I thought I would give them a try.

They were... not good. :x :(

Were you "angry" about it? And did you then "drop" them in the garbage?

Well then.  ;)

Just ate some kudu pate.  Kudu is some kind of South African ruminant.  Tasted like a very light deviled ham.

Had my first Dairy Queen burger in about 35 years.  I remember them being pretty tasty but this was nothing.  Only toppings they had were pickle and onion.  And they charge $3.50 for fries.  :huh:

I'm done with you DQ.  Back to Wendy's.

Yeah, DQ burgers aren't what they used to be.  A&W and Checkers lapped them years ago when it came to non-BCS burger joints.
