@mivox Jealous!!!! Personally if I could only go back for a weekend I’d go to the beach overlook at Kincaid, Rustic Goat for nachos, and City Market for packaged european food (or the Midtown Sagaya for asian wares) and stock up on my favorite teas (alpine licorice & iditamint) at Summit Spice & Tea. I’d go to Kaladi because I used to work there but then I’d complain about the quality.
@Scatterseed OK, definitely skipping Kaladi then. 😂 That’s the second recommend for Rustic Goat though… dammit I just do not have enough dinner times to go everywhere!
RAY'S PLACE HAS VERY TASTY VIETNAMESE FOOD AND QUICK SERVICE, BUT THEY MIGHT BE CLOSED FOR MEMORIAL DAY FOR AMERICA REASONS. THEY WERE BLESSED BY THE MAYOR OF FLAVORTOWN.
3.PIZZA MAN IN EAGLE RIVER IS THE BEST PIZZA WITHIN AT LEAST A SIX HOUR DRIVE. WORTH THE TRIP.
I'VE HAD GREAT EXPERIENCES WITH EVEREST RESTAURANT.
I THINK SOUTH IS OVERRATED.
RUSTIC GOAT ANNOYS ME BECAUSE THE NAME FEELS LIKE A BRAINLESS MID-AUGHTS BAD BOY CHEF WHO MAKES $28 BURGERS CLICHE, BUT I'VE ONLY HAD A FINE TIME AND A GOOD MEAL THERE.
IF YOU'RE FEELING FANCY AND RICH, SPOONLINE BISTRO IN GIRDWOOD IS THE BEST MEAL I'VE EVER HAD IN ALASKA.
I HAVE A MASOCHISTIC LOVE OF TACO KING.
PHO LENA IS YUMMY AND RELIABLE.
INTERNATIONAL HOUSE OF HOT DOGS INSIDE THE INLET VIEW HOTEL IS A LITERALLY HIDDEN TREASURE. THE ASIAN DOG WITH THE SPICY VEGETARIAN SAUSAGE IS MY FAVORITE TUBE-SHAPED SNACK.
@LRRRonEarth THANK YOU MOST BENEFICENT OF OVERLORDS, SIR!
I was eyeballing Everest, will definitely do that one night.
Have heard nothing but good things about Fire Island, and I’m in walking distance! I’ve also been told to go to any downtown pho place, so maybe Lena for a lunch.
Fairbanks has a Taco King (I also kind of love them), so I don’t need to fit that in the schedule.
Expensive places can wait for another visit. 😅
Might have to stop and get a pizza on the way home. 🤔
@mivox SUPER FAIR RE: TACO KING. FOR A SATISFYING, UNFUSSY LUNCH, YOU COULD TRY THE YAK N YETI INSIDE THE SAME MALL AS TITLE WAVE. BIG FUCKIN' BOWL OF NEPALESE CURRY THAT YOU CAN TAKE TO GO.
@LRRRonEarth The friend I’m staying with mentioned Yak & Yeti, but if I do Everest, then I feel like I need to diversify… was eyeballing Hong Kong Spirit Food, because I trust any restaurant that serves chicken feet to generally make authentic Chinese food. 🤔
@mivox IT CAN BE A BIT OF A GUT BOMB. GREAT IF YOU HAVE A NAP PLANNED, BUT NOT CONDUCIVE TO BEING THOUGHTFUL AND ALERT. I OFTEN GET THE GARLIC CILANTRO FRIES WHEN I GET THAT DOG IN ME, WHICH MAY EXPLAIN MY SLEEPINESS.
