Mission Discover New Foods!
To break out of this weekends rut I took this mission to the extreme. I did a whole day of new things.
I started with lunch. I grabbed a person that was in my ward, Steven Balintine (not only because he has a car, but because he is the most happy go lucky person I know) so we started off to Payson. In the search for a hole in a wall place to eat our adventurous meal. We ended in a po dunk family run diner "Nebo Kitchen". It was not good food. Like homemade dinner from the freezer and boxed potatoes. But it was a fun adventure.
From there we went to the store. I am on the hunt for the perfect chocolate chip cookie, so it was time to make a new batch with a new recipe this week. (If you have the worlds best recipe let me know so I can try them) This time it was a recipe off the back of the Hershey's Semi-sweet chips. They were average. The chocolate was fantastic though.
Then, since I did not feel satisfied with either of these food adventures, we went to Guru's for dinner. The spicy curry was sub par, too spicy and not savory enough. It lacked depth and flavor other than spice. The sweet potato fries were fantastic when they were hot, the fry sauce was fantastic, but let them cool down and they were average.
So overall the food adventures were about a 5 out of 10. Nothing to call home about. But this food adventure day was an inspiration for future food adventure. This Rut was BUSTED! And it will set a pattern for future ruts being demolished.
I love the idea of going to little family diners/holes-in-the wall. Seems like it's always either super good or super bad....never in between.
ReplyDeleteI hope you find the best chocolate chip cookie recipe and when you do....let me know!
