Inspired by @moonboy403 that did a lunch crawl recently. I did my own mini crawl this afternoon with the chow pup. Downtownish edition.
Langers - still makes me a little sad that they don’t cook and smoke it in house. But it was great.
Kid said “ dad this is really really bad bread” lol
Grand central - wanted to get a peach donut but I guess they stop it right at the end of august. Settled for a fat and flour key lime. Not as a good as I remember and also tiny. Fooflation!
Sonoratown caramelo was delicious. Smoky meat with all the right textures. Salsas both bright and punchy, beans, cheese, cabbage and guac to all bring it together. Tortilla was good but maybe not epic level like tacos carreta. This was her favorite stop
Bianco is always a solid stop. The bottom of my pizza was a little more burnt than usual. Not sure if there was a hot spot or the deck was too hot, kinda killed the balance of a plain marg. Sorbettos were great got the strawberries on the side so we could also mix them with the chocolate. Chow pup loved the chocolate with strawberries. Sad they don’t have the peach burrata.
Wanted to do another stop but it was getting late and I got pretty full since I did most of the eating lol.
I passed by Kato at around 7ish and saw that it wasn’t busy at all which made me sad. Hopefully their business is good.
