So I was in Winston-Salem on business visiting a leading apparel company. I won’t name names, but just sing to yourself, wait til we get our ___ on you! They have a beautiful campus. Like seriously beautiful. With a jogging trail and tons of land and even a lake type thing. And tons of outdoor spots for dining. And it’s hot here people. Hot and sunny. So I enjoyed myself a little outdoor dining with my giant heap of taco salad from their cafeteria. And pink lemonade.

I like to stay at hotels that give you complimentary breakfast of some kind. I like it because then I don’t have to think about it. I’m not a huge breakfast person so it’s not a meal that I particularly like to plan around. And when a hotel has complimentary breakfast, there’s usually tons of stuff to choose from, and there’s bound to be at least a few things I like. And I especially love it when they have belgian waffle stations! There’s something about “making” it on my own that makes me happy.
These made perfect breakfasts during my stay. The batter was premade, but great! You could totally tell you were in the south because of the breakfast choices here. There were biscuits, but there was also sausage gravy. There was also hot sauce available. For breakfast. I love seeing regional food differences!

When I travel, whether it’s for business or pleasure, you know my ass is going to plan eating at certain places. I always do some amount of food research! When in North Carolina you have to eat bbq. So I decided to go to Little Richard’s. Lo and behold, they’re closed on Sundays. Not just closed early, but closed all day long. I guess this is what I get when I cross the mason dixon on a Sunday. Suffice it to say, my growling belly was severely disappointed. So then in a starvation panic, I decided to just go to mcdonald’s. As I turned into the driveway, I saw a little strip mall behind it and spotted a thai restaurant. So I just went there and ordered some food.
