Trader Joe's Paneer Tikka Masala

I know this is not a restaurant but from time to time you come accross a meal from your local grocery that you concider not that bad. I had this for the first time today. If you're a vegetarian that eats cheese, you will love this meal! It had the amazing spices of the Tikka Masala sauce. Paneer (a mild cheese) almost tofu like in taste is descent but you add the sauce and the rice and you have a beautiful melody in a box. I only enjoy this when I can't make it to an Indian restaurant. There sauce is pretty darn close!

You can find this dish at your local Trader Joe's grocery store.

Starbucks Chai Latte - Best latte ever!

This morning I had a great treat! I stopped at my local Starbucks and had a Grande Chai Latte with nonfat milk to lighten the blow. This amazingly built latte is like non other and will give you that warm fuzzy feeling in the morning. Enjoy it alone or with one of their favorite artisan sandwiches!  :)

Ripe Kitchen and Bar

I visited Ripe last night and boy did I love the Tuesday night drink special. I drank a rum and punch that was so pumped that knocked me out around 10pm. Besides that, the food was insanely delicious! We started off with the Cuban Plantain Boat, a salty and sweet fish and plantain dish that will knock socks off!  Then we went on to the main course. I had the Curried Goat while my partner had the winner of Bobby Flay's Throwdown "Big-Ass" Jerk Rib-Eye Steak. I had a couple of bites of that and it was delish. This restaurant from the outside may not seem like much but wow the taste will make you feel like you're in a restaurant in Paris.

P.S. Don't forget your cash. It's a "cash only" kinda place.

Happy Dining!
