The first day of driving we decided to stop in Boise to see my mom's biological mom and have dinner with them. This was Julimae's first restaurant outing. And, of course, she was perfect! She did want to get up and leave half way through but I made her lay down and she didn't protest again. After that we went to our hotel room and she thought that was THE BOMB DIGGITY. I let her roam around the room the whole time and she was wonderful. She thought that running around with her toys was a great pastime in the hotel. The next day we started to drive to Oregon! She was brilliant and rode in the back of the car like she did before. When we got to Oregon we went to dinner with my mom's cousin. She was great during dinner there too. After that we went to Voodoo Doughnut and she was also great there. She impressed me a whole lot.
We went to Pok Pok in Portland because we had seen it on TV and heard great things about it. I wasn't too impressed with it. It was my first time having Thai food and since I'm a fan of very hot food I ordered the hottest thing on the menu. It even said it was the hottest... It was good but it wasn't that hot. A bag of flamin' hot cheetos is hotter. I was very disappointed. We all shared our food so I got to try some duck (bleck :P) and I also accidentally ate a cube (yes, cube) of pork fat. Who cube's animal fat and puts it on a beef kabob? I thought it was a pineapple piece, but I was way way wrong. It was the worst thing ever! Anyway, Voodoo Doughnut wasn't all it was cracked up to be either. We have also seen it on TV and thought we would try it... Eh. If they were fresh doughnut they would've been better...
We had a good first part of our trip and Julimae had a lot of fun!

Don't you mean the "BOMB DOGGITY?" Haha! If you want really good Thai food and you ever find youself in Fresno look me up and I'll take you to my favourite place. That being said you're probably thinking "Oh what does she know." But it is also my father's favourite place and he lived in Thailand for a couple of months. When they say things are spicey they are SPICEY! I'm under the same influence. If it doesn't completely wipe out my taste buds as I put it in my mouth it's not worth me eating. :)
ReplyDeleteIf I had known you liked hot and spicy food, I would have recommended you go to Salvador Molly's to eat the Habenero fritters they call "Balls of Fire." If you eat all 5, plus the sauce, you get your picture taken and it's placed on the "Wall of Flame." This place has been featured on TV before, too. Maybe you'll get a second chance to eat in Portland when Julimae graduates.
