there was this place in San Francisco called Cafe Muse with the best chai lattes I have ever fucking had and I wish I had gone there more than just a couple times on vacation because I think about that chai latte from time to time

The AMC nearest me used to have an in-house bar and restaurant. They did this gigantic buffalo chicken po boy. Ranch, lettuce, tomato. Half the time I actually finished it, I'd need to call off work the next day. I miss it SO MUCH.

my husband and I used to walk to this one shaved ice location when we started dating and would split a small three-flavored snow cone- a flavor I liked on one side, one he liked on the other, and a third we could both agree on in the middle. we were just talking about actually.

forever thinking about il corvo in seattle. waiting in line up the hill to share a tiny table with strangers as the waiters squeezed past you carrying fresh pasta and pesto kale salads. my sister worked as a chef in pioneer square so sometimes I’d take the 40 down and we’d meet there for lunch.

A Hungarian restaurant near my old apartment (which would still be totes accessible from where I live now, sob). It was just a husband and wife cooking dinner basically and it was so good.

The still-hot potato chips with green onions from Shut Up & Eat on SE Gladstone.

Pan roasted chicken and noodles, and duck confit spinach salad at Peristyle. I have this meal in my dreams every couple of years.

Once in college my friend & my sister and I had a miserable day, but she had won an apple pie from a raffle. We sat on the floor of her dorm room and ate it straight out of the pie tin with three forks, and I’ve tasted an apple pie that good since then.

So basic, but: the Rojo burger from the specific Chili's at park and Preston in Plano Texas in the year 1994. My dad used to only order this burger and continued even after they changed its name to the hickory burger and ultimately discontinued it: sometimes they would still make it for him

My mom made lasagna better than any restaurant food. Stouffer's doesn't even deserve to be called lasagna when my mom's lasagna once existed. I have her old recipe, but I don't have the electric fry pans needed to do it right. I'll always miss my mom, but darn if I don't also miss her cooking.

Now I’m getting teary-eyed thinking about how I’ll never have another chiliburger and thick-as-cement milkshake from Mad Dog and Bean’s.

when i was 6 years old & went back to Japan for the first time, my aunt took me to this tiny cafe near the train station outside Osaka. i had a kid-size shrimp gratin & a melon cream soda. i still remember how good it was. my aunt passed away soon after & i never was able to find that cafe again.

Mannnnnnnnnnnm There was this one shop in Oakland, a Caribbean/Haitian one, that I went to so often (like daily), I started helping close up.

A Niçoise salad at a pizza spot got pulled from the menu in the early covid era and I loved it so much the restaurant felt bad to 86 it and sent me the recipe. It’s just not the same in my kitchen.

Holyshit, I was just telling my kid about this yesterday. I used to get a dinner once a month from a restaurant called Adamos in western mass. It was a spicy creamy tomato sauce (w roasted toms I think) and shrimp over angel hair. I tried and failed to find a recipe for it when they closed. 😪

Growing up, petit fours from The Swedish Bakery in Chicago were a special treat for birthdays or Mother's Day. I actually went into mourning when I found out they'd closed.

It’s not a restaurant- our close family friend’s mom used to make us Mac n Cheese. It wasn’t kraft, it was off brand and she did something to it- some special butter maybe? Sadly she passed from breast cancer and the memory of her and that dish are entwined in my mind. I miss both dearly ❤️

Morton’s Wisconsinn of Cedarburg, now closed, had the best french onion soup, it was so flavorful and rich, and then they capped the bowl with a melted blend of three cheeses that you had to cut through with a scissors

The pizza shop in my parents' neighborhood had the best tomato sauce and the pizza shop that's in the building now just isn't the same.

We had a donut shop uptown that made cream fritters (apple pie fritter dough but filled with cream). They were heavenly.

I think I'm most haunted by these--wet burritos. That parents would sometimes bring home as takeout and I haven't even been able to determine WEAR from. They don't remember. AND I DIDN'T APPRECIATE THEM. My food sensitivities were slightly different at the time! Now, I Desire Them. So badly.
