Green Smoothies Yum!

One cup spinach, 1.5 cups of soymilk with vanilla flavor, 1 teaspoon of flaxseed, 1/4 cup of OJ, and 1/2 a banana. Mix it up in the blender, and enjoy!

Taste @ Eatsie Boys

So, wanting to try a new eating experience for lunchtime and decided that I'd try the Eatsie Boys food truck in the parking lot. It was hard for me to choose from their menu. So I went with the Da Bomb (a marinated Vietnamese style sandwich with chicken, roasted jalapenos, cucumber, carrots, and cilantro). I liked it. It had a little bit of a kick. I liked how I could stop inside Agora. I grabbed a sparkling water and was able to sit on the patio.

It was a nice way to chill out during the day. Relax, eat good food, and work on my writing for bit. The Vietnamese sandwich's chicken was nicely spiced, the carrots were tasting, and the green hot sauce was very delish.

Definitely stop by for a new way of dining. All the food that the Eatsie Boys prepare is fresh and local, too.

Taste @ Jeannine's Bistro

I don't come here often, but when I do visit, the moules frites are delicious and the service is always polite and helpful. Compared to the wimpy and uninspired moules mariniere I had in Paris last month, Jeannine's are much, much better. (Sometimes, everything in Texas is bigger and better.)

Last weekend, I shared the salade au roquefort and the large order of the moules mariniere with the frites. This is definitely enough food for two people! The mussels are plump and have a savory soup stock with onions and celery. And, I like the mustard/mayonaise dipping sauce that come with the french fries. My boyfriend had the Kwak amber beer. It's very delicious and is served in this very interesting shaped glass. (It will remind you of high school chemistry lab!) I paired my mussels with a nice sweet and refreshing Riesling wine.

We had such an enjoyable meal we decided to splurge and share the pistachio ice cream for dessert. It was served in this huge goblet and had a separate container of chocolate sauce! It was so indulgent and delicious.

It was a nice casual meal and from the looks of the other smiling patrons there that night, good meals were had by all.
