Hello world! Spicy Sweet Chili Doritos! I went on this weird junk food binge at Wawa the other day, and picked up a bunch of crap, including tastykakes, sun chips, and these little crunchy triangles of heaven. It’s a new flavor, and damn, I’m addicted. When you pop em in your mouth, the first flavor you taste is soy sauce. But don’t worry, this isn’t like you’re dipping a chip into soy sauce. It just has a slight soy saucey taste initially, and then you taste the sweet, slightly sour, and not too spicy. It’s not easy to describe. It’s just easy to say that I am in love. I made D try em, and as healthy as he may be, he too was a convert. They are now officially his kryptonite! Seriously folks, nacho cheese and cool ranch ain’t got nothin on these!

UPDATE: I went back to the same Wawas to get some more of these treats, and they did not have them! GRRR!!! Now I must hit up every store I can possibly think of and stock up…

Slurpee that came in the cup? Not too good. Collectible cup? Adorable.


Awhile back, I was at a BP station on Girard when T needed to get some cash. He came back with cash, and some of these delightful Howard’s Honey Plantain chips. I don’t know where else you can get these. I ventured back there the other week just to pick these up. They’re still good.

A few weekends ago, we stopped by Reading Terminal Market to grab a quick lunch. Z got some indian food at Nanee’s Kitchen. It wasn’t bad. I got a crepe at Profi’s Creperie. I’d totally been hankering for some crepes. I got a banana honey crepe. I think I expected it to be light on the honey. Perhaps drizzled in honey. But it was drowned in it. A little too much honey there profi’s! Give those bees a break. Otherwise, it was filled to the brim with bananas and quite good, if it wasn’t for that weird feeling you get in the back of your throat when you’re dealing with too much honey. And a quick shout out to the milkshakes and smoothies made by Freal that you can get at Wawa. So they only have limited flavors, who cares? They’re cheap and they’re good. And you get to mix it on your own, so you feel part of the experience.

On lazy Saturdays, I like to head over to the Ardmore Farmers Market in Suburban Square to grab a bite. There are many options – pizza, chinese, sushi, fried chicken, seafood, etc. I’ve had the chinese, it’s good and different, but a bit pricey. Z always gets the amish fried chicken at Stoltzfus Poultry. I’m not big into fried chicken, that’s why I don’t get it. But it is pretty good. You can tell it’s made by hand and made with love. The batter is nicely spiced and crispy and it’s cooked very well. You’ll see no pink bits here.
Genji Sushi Express is a little to-go sushi place. It’s very small, but I’ve always found their food to be pretty good, for to-go stuff. And they will always make something fresh for you. On this day, I asked them to make me a california roll with brown rice. I’m not a health nut, but sometimes, I make small efforts. It actually tastes better with brown rice, as it adds a different flavor angle. They also recently started serving some udon dishes, and they’re not bad. It’s a nice quick choice.
