2 Good Indian Buffets in South Jersey
Not that I'm a fan of buffets, but I stumbled across one one day that left me quite a pleasant surprise. I knew I liked curry but I didn't know all the different ways I would like it, and this place proved to me that I could have it any way I want. Not getting beside myself, but the way these curry-like dishes tasted left me speechless. There were so many different flavors like tomato, coconut vegetable, and creamy spinach. Best of all, they had them right next to each other with their native names out front so you know what to look for when you go back or elsewhere. No, best of all was the price. You could get all this for less than $14 at the lunch hour with the drink included. Desserts were a taste too but I'm not a huge fan of pudding. I did go for the milk and cheese balls dipped in syrup at Palace of Asia in Maple Shade though. It's called Gulab Jamun, and it tasted heavenly. The first restaurant I was referring to is Coriander, located in Voorhees, New Jersey. Both menus of these places complement each other and are worth checking out.

Hawaiian Opihi – The Deadliest Delicacy
“Try it, Mickey – you will like it!” If you have an opportunity to taste Opihi, do not turn it down. Opihi, known as the “Deadliest Delicacy” in Hawaii, is a “superfood,” chock full of iodine, fat-free and delicious. An edible shellfish, Opihi (Cellana exarata) of the limpet species of marine gastropod mollusks found growing attached to rocks where the ocean meets the shore, is a rare treat either eaten raw with salt or seaweed or cooked over a driftwood fire on the grill and garnished with butter and lemon. Others prefer opihi slurped fresh from the shell, wiggly tentacles and all, garnished with a dash of Tabasco. Opihi is also scrumptiously pickled, seasoned with soy and ginger.

Pandemic Donuts: Every Cloud has a Sprinkled Lining. Third Place in Pay It Forward Challenge.
Cast your mind back. It's March 2020. The US has only just begun to see the effects of COVID-19 hit its shores. The more cautious have started to self-isolate. The government is a patchwork of conflicting information. On St Patricks Day, the bars and restaurants of Denver are still full of blissfully ignorant revelers. The following week, the penny drops, and shutters close like dominoes along South Broadway, Tennyson, Larimer, and 16th Street.

Cravings I Deal With
Not gonna lie, I like food but I don't like food enough to call myself a foodie. However, I do have certain times where I can go for a certain kind of food so I tend to get cravings which is kind of funny to me because I'm a guy and women usually get cravings more when they're pregnant. I'm not saying that guys shouldn't have cravings but it's probably easier to accept when a woman is craving something.
