MUNCHIES [CA] . Hydration Café

Cheap, fast, tasty. That's all I ask a bento box to be, but places usually skimp on flavor, busting the sacred trinity. Hydration Café does not skimp. For about $5 and some change, you can get a ... continued»

MUNCHIES [CA] . Caffé Macs

I'm sure Caffé Macs (Apple's eatery) was attempting to be set itself apart from all the other Silicon Valley Corporate Cafés by adding an extra "f", or maybe they did that because that's what the food deserves. Okay, that ... continued»

MUNCHIES [CA] . eBay Park Café

Oh no! I'm officially a Silicon Valley whore. I've worked at Apple, Yahoo!, Adobe, (am still currently a Research Consultant for Google), but eBay made me a juicy offer and a tops title plus pet insurance(!), so I'm ... continued»

MUNCHIES [CA] . Café Adobe

Holy crap Jack Black works here! A doppelgänger who speaks spanish. It's like Nacho Libre, cafeteria version. I haven't ordered from his section, I usually stick to the daily specials like veggie paninis or falafels. Consistency ... continued»

MUNCHIES [CA] . Saravana Bhavan

If you think Amber India is good Indian food, then stop reading right now. If you're one for a little adventure, try Saravana Bhavan. Piquant, pungent, vegetarian South Indian (Tamilnadu, I believe) cuisine that won't break the bank ... continued»

MUNCHIES [CA] . Hoshi

Damn, forgot the camera again. Hoshi is not a place to order sushi rolls. You probably will be disappointed. And you might be taken aback when their grilled fish entrées reach your table as it is the ... continued»

MUNCHIES [CA] . GocHi Japanese Fusion Tapas

There's something wild happening in Cupertino, the education-centric mecca for droll family life and ethnic fairs held in the duck-ruled pond/park because they don't even have a Downtown to party in. Well, they're all partying over at GocHi now. I've ... continued»

MUNCHIES REVIEW [CA] . Tanto Restaurant

I was pretty much jazzed about any plate of raw fish set in front of me until I moved to the Bay Area, where sushi is prevalent, but good sushi is rare (so you know if I, the human garbage ... continued»

MUNCHIES . [CA] . Tofoo Com Chay

Tofoo Com Chay feels like family when Ben, the friendly upbeat shopowner with the photographic memory greets regulars by name every time without fail. One tiny counter lady seems to only know the english word "dear", repeating it often. ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Wild Mushroom and Spinach Habanero Lasagna

When the spinach e.coli outbreak of 2006 arose, I almost died. Died because I couldn't eat spinach. I luuuuurve spinach; raw or sauteed, it's so good. I was doing Consultant work for Apple then, enjoying piling up ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Ginger Spice Iced Cookies

Ginger is so Autumn, doncha think? The warmth of fresh Fall spices really inspire the soul and tempt the palate.. why, the very mention of it causes me to spout jenky poetry, apparently. These Ginger Spice Iced Cookies ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Curry Udon

Curry is welcome at our house any time, be it Japanese-style or Indian-spiced, and I love fatty thick noodles, so I thought I'd try my hand at merging both with Curry Udon. I just subbed seitan for chicken but ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Sweet Potato Macadamia Cake with White Chocolate Frosting

When I was young, I wanted a sweet potato pie, but noone I knew made or sold the stuff. Then my dad grew sweet potatoes, but still no pie. When I finally had some (even an authentic Southern ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Meatless “Meaty” Tacos

I'm sure if you made these with actual animal flesh, you'd have a coronary right on the spot. I don't do well with exact measurements or repeating routines (even if I'm following a baking recipe, I experiment and change ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Banana Cream Pie

Banana cream pie has oft been the glut of paranoia for amateur bakers. Soggy crust, bruised bananas, lumpy custard; it just doesn't seem like it's worth the trouble. Well, I can attest that your woes will be unfounded ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Vegetarian Oktoberfest

Thought Oktoberfest was only for omnivores? Turtle Island Foods, the wonderful people who brought us modern-day marvels (vegan fare that doesn't taste and look like cardboard), have quite a delicious selection of tasty pseudo sausages. Brown up sliced ... continued»

MUNCHIES [Homecookin'] . Stuffed Bell Peppers

This was the "Inadvertent Lycopene Dinner" with Stuffed Red Bell Peppers and Strawberry Shortcake. I have no idea how you're "supposed" to make stuffed peppers 'cos I've never researched a recipe, but my way is verrry simple.. I just ... continued»

I tells ya, if you ever want to work out your upper arms, whip your way into shape (literally) by making an Almond Sponge Cake Strawberry Shortcake (from scratch by hand) with freshly whipped cream. Owch. You separate ... continued»
