1000th Blog Post: My Favorite Place to Eat

It’s my 1000th blog post! What better way to celebrate by revealing my all time favorite place to eat. When I was younger, I tried to strive to fold 1000 origami cranes and 1000 stars, but I never had the attention span do undertake such a tedious task. I’m not sure why 1000 is the lucky number that is considered lucky … and Google didn’t help me try to demystify my curiosity.

I’ve never written a review with a 5 ‘beaker’ rating since there is never a place that compels me to always go back. Don’t get me wrong, there are tons of great places in town, but there’s one place that I always go home to. This place is obviously my kitchen! Seriously, no joke. I do love going out to eat, but sometimes home is really where the heart is…but in my case, the kitchen is where the heart is. The kitchen has always been the focal point of the house where everything happens.

I’ll share with you some of my favorite foods from the kitchen.

For those who know me, I only cook one meal a year and that is turkey. I marinade the crap out of it with butter and herbs, then cover it with bacon. With all the leftovers during thanksgiving, my mom makes an amazing turkey congee. The only reason I make the turkey is so she can make the congee. It’s so damn good and it’s something that I’ll never get tired of.  Thanks mom!

The freezer is always stocked with Earnest Ice Cream. Seriously, Salted Caramel and Oatmeal Brown Sugar are the best flavours.

Also, being asian, we have tons of tea. Tea all the time!

We have 2 sections in our kitchen for tea.  I can be your crazy neighbour that can offer you tea instead of a cup of sugar. We have more tea than we can drink.

 There you have it, my favorite place to eat is in my kitchen. I know, it might sound pretty lame, but I really do love the kitchen. I can go there in my PJs, theres always something to fill my tummy up, no line ups, and my mom is usually in there cooking up a storm. A large tribute to my parents for keeping it stocked all the time! You’re probably wondering where is the fridge and all the other fruits and vegetables. It’s in there but it wasn’t very pretty as we have quite a bit of leftovers right now.

You were probably expecting a cool restaurant to be my 1000th post, but there’s nothing that gets me more excited than going into the kitchen and rummaging for some food.
