Fabulous Food Finds-V.2

Here is the 2nd volume of my fabulous food finds. Yes, I am supposed to be on "a path to healthy living" aka "diet", but my stomach has been wandering...
  • Black Forest Cake from Safeway. I know, it sounds silly. But wait until you try it. Two scrumptious thick layers of dark chocolate cake, with a layer of whipped cream and cherries in the center. To top it off, more whipped cream covers the outside, and then, yes there's more, a layer of dark chocolate curls. For a store bought cake, it takes the cake. Pardon the pun... Just go get a cake. Slice it. Eat it. Enough said.
  • London Fog Tea Latte, from Starbucks. This is Andy's favorite, and thanks to a very chatty employee from there, we now know how to make them at home. Thank you "Jane Doe", you have now decreased Starbucks sales, and may prevent them from opening a location right across the street from you. Good on ya! Go get one, try it, and call me. I'll give ya the secrets. So good. And simple. Did I mention good?
  • Potatoes and glass noodles at Koryo Korean BBQ. They have these places in alot of food courts. The potatoes are fried, then sauced in some form of sweet creamy garlic dressing. The glass noodles look scary at first, but set your fears aside. Seriously. They are amazing. Enough said. Oh, and a tip? The jumbo combo? The name says it all. They give you 3 meats, 2 scoops of rice, and 4 side dishes. Yes, we order it every time. Yes, I ask "why did we order the jumbo" every time. No, I will not change my order the next time. Go enjoy, the staff is wicked, and the food is seriously amazing.
  • Any of the dim sum items at Fortune Foods. It's on Centre St., in a strip mall, close to the registry and a gas station. Find a phone book, google it, map it and love it. The owner is a family friend, and may seem rude as she is short with people, but she gets busy. Really busy. They roll ALOT of food out of there. Try the BBQ pork rice rolls, she'll try to sell you on them anyway. Her spring rolls are the best, not too greasy. You can dine in, if you can find a table--there are only 7. Or just get take out from the hot trays, or check her menu. She also has loads of frozen stuff--her wontons and dumplings are delish!
So there you have it kids, fabulous foods are everywhere. And the hunt shall continue...
