June 4, 20242 yr I have to admit, I don't understand the devotion to this burger joint either. I'd choose What-a-burger over In & out every time.

June 5, 20242 yr But the best burger joint in the world isn't in California or Texas. It's in Anchorage, Alaska. I'm truly sad that you fine folks have never experienced magnificence in a burger. Especially with the best onion rings in the world. And on those walls is a pic of little, 10 y.o. Stevie and family from 1971. Oh how I'd like to be sitting in one of those Red booths, looking down on Camble Creek right now! Edited June 5, 20242 yr by swt61
June 9, 20242 yr Earlier today (Home made Cream cheese, cinnamon and maple syrup schmear) Later today (Salted dark chocolate, @Good Earth, The line at scoop was too long for Joanne!) Edited June 9, 20242 yr by Grahame
June 16, 20242 yr Banana pudding for a rare lunchtime dessert during my good buddy's b-day outing. After seeing the amphibian alien creature, I figure a little sugar is called for...LOL. HS
June 21, 20242 yr I watched a pizza documentary some time back, about Connecticut pizza, and Sally's was mentioned as a favorite.
June 26, 20242 yr I'm interested in bay area halibut. I've never tried it, and am curious how it might compare to Alaskan caught halibut?

June 26, 20241 yr I read that it's a bit thinner than Alaskan halibut and that looks to be true. The shrimp in the Texas gulf looked exactly like the shrimp in Alaska, but tasted quite different. More of an iodine taste in Texas. Because of the cold water, they are slower growing in Alaska, and so much tastier. But the waters here are not nearly as warm, so I imagine the taste of halibut would be similar? They do grow much, much larger in Alaska (upwards of 600 lbs.), but the tastiest are 25 lbs. and under, so that wouldn't matter. What I grew up knowing as "Chicken Halibut". Halibut is absolutely my favorite fish. Blue fin Tuna second and King Salmon third. But, hard smoked Alaskan King Salmon, brined and honey glazed, is the greatest thing to ever come out of the sea. Even better than Gay Mermen! https://www.themountainkitchen.com/smoked-salmon-with-honey-glaze/ Edited June 26, 20241 yr by swt61
June 29, 20241 yr Finally got to Howlin' Ray's for a hot chicken sandwich and it was excellent! Went with Medium+ heat level at my brother's suggestion, but should have gone all the way to hot. No multiple hour line on a Friday at 4:00pm. In fact no line at all.
