Tea-DO, really is a must do!

On our trip to Salem, we also stopped in Boston MA. And in Boston you will find a very small Chinatown. And in that Chinatown, you will find Tea-Do

Whenever we get the chance, we love to stop in and try small things in every larger cities Chinatown. We were fortunate enough to make it to the one in Boston. I had always wanted to try bubble tea, especially after it has gotten so much hype lately on the web. And I thought to myself, why not now?



Tea-do offers a large variety of specialty drinks for everyone. They are also open late, which was surprising to us because most of that area closed somewhat early. The restaurant is also on the smaller side, and we hear the locals love to come here and hangout. With that being said the place can fill up rather quickly. It's a fast paced environment and you feel like you don't have time to spare. 

Since it was my first time ever ordering bubble tea, I basically had no idea what it was I was trying to find, or trying to order. The menu is rather big. I had trouble picking what I thought I would like. The people working behind the counter tried to help, but they were rushing taking others orders. 

After finally deciding on something they started making our drinks. We waited only a minute before we received our drinks. This city really does move fast. I went with the Thai milk tea, and Seth opted for the passion fruit tea.


We learned that bubble tea comes with cool large straws so that the 'bubbles' at the bottom can come up and be enjoyed. The bubbles are made from tapioca and are really fun. After trying our drinks, we decided we both made good choices. I took a sip from Seth's and thought to myself I'm glad I didn't go with something fruity, it was good- but not my cup of tea! *Slaps knee* 

In all seriousness, they both were very good and we enjoyed every drop. 


After trying our first bubble tea, I decided I would like to go back and try more! Look forward to more bubbles coming your way. Thanks Tea-Do for the fun experience!

Later, foodie friends!

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Amorino has the Gelato

  Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well.  When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so pretty!

Fatso's.. hopefully Not-so Last Stand

Fatso’s Last Stand is a "somewhat" fast food restaurant that can also be found on the outskirts of Chicago. When it comes to hot-dogs, Chicago is the place you want to be. For those who may not know, the traditional Chicago dog includes an all-beef frank placed on a poppy seed bun, with a lot of toppings such as, white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled peppers, and lastly yellow mustard. Out of the many, many, places in Chicago you can find a great hot dog we wound up at Fatso’s. Not only does Fatso’s offer great hot-dogs, they have their own spin on hamburgers. The burger is famously named “The Fatso Burger” and we couldn’t leave without trying both. When ordering you’ll also notice that all of their hot-dogs are served Chicago style, but you can add or remove all the toppings that you would like. Fatso’s has a few different types of hot-dogs to pick from in terms of the meat and style
