food

When I moved to Berkeley, I was determined to find my “go-to” sandwich shop. After a year of searching for some of Berkeley’s best veggie sandwiches, I’ve successfully found three that I think everyone, vegetarian or not, should try!

It was unsettling to hold this new kind of significance on my relatives and the people surrounding me. Way back when, breakfast was served on a first-come-first-serve basis, and you only got to eat what was left.

Coming back feels different, and I can’t help but feel like I’m a visitor in a town that’s supposed to be home. The foods I used to eat now recall the past, and I revel in those memories. 

Well, what caught my attention was not the fact that it was a grocery store, but, rather, that there was a grocery store directly linked to a shopping mall. I mean, that’s just so convenient.

So, I decided to go online, experiment with different recipes and make one of Erewhon’s most popular dishes in my kitchen: the buffalo cauliflower.

So, from endless food options to dance centers, I’m here to talk about some of the gems The Source OC has to offer. 

I came to realize that LA may not be the be-all and end-all of life, but it’s still a lovely city if you want to try delicious food and look for cool clothes. It may not be the glamorous city that I once thought it was. Still, after visiting a couple of times, I’ve found some solid activities to do if you’re in LA beyond the touristy traps like walking the Hollywood Walk of Fame or seeing the Hollywood sign. 

Santa Barbara has loads to offer in terms of great dining experiences, but what was most important to me was returning to these places that I have such fond memories of and reliving them with a new perspective.

If variety is the spice of life, then, oh boy, do I love variety! For me, food can never be spicy enough - I will coat everything and anything in Tapatío, Sriracha and all manner of chili flakes.

If there’s one thing that corporate companies know how to do best, it’s holiday items. With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, it’s time to head down to the store and stock up!
