VILLA BLANCA, BEVERLY HILLS

Published by Nicole Isaacs

I had the most beautiful dinner at Villa Blanca recently. This restaurant is so gorgeous. If I were to ever own my own restaurant, it would have a very similar vibe and look as Villa Blanca. So my style! I went on a warm night when the outside patio was packed and everything was lit with candles. Villa Blanca is all white and has a very romantic and elegant vibe. It is a fusion of Italian and Asian cuisine. Before going, I had heard the food was good, but nothing special, so my expectations for the food wasn’t high. Everyone was saying to just go because it is a beautiful restaurant. I must admit though, I was pleasantly surprised with the food. I had a great dinner. The place was packed on a Saturday night- I sat inside on the edge of the open door patio, and since it was a warm night, I felt the warm breeze throughout dinner and with the candles everywhere, it just had a great vibe. This is what was ordered: First …

BABY BO’S CANTINA, NEW YORK CITY

Published by Nicole Isaacs

     Whoever said there is no real/good Mexican food in NYC, I am proving them wrong right now! Baby Bo’s Cantina in Murray Hill, NYC, was one of the best Mexican meals I’ve had in a long time. It was so good! I went with my sister and a friend, and it is the cutest little Mexican spot- total hole in the wall, but charming and cozy. It was packed when we got there, and when we sat at the bar, a couple minutes later we turned around to look at the door and there was a line of people waiting to be seated. This is what we ordered:   ~Quesadilla Enorme with shredded beef-  this was one of the best quesadillas I ever had! Inside was shredded beef, gooey cheese (the cheese was so creamy and amazing), beans, and topped with gaucamole, jalapenos, and chipotle sauce. I love my chipotle sauce, or any sauce for that matter! It was perfection. A quesadilla done right!   ~*BBQ DUCK BURRITO-  3 words for this. I COULD DIE. It …

IN N’ OUT BURGER

Published by Nicole Isaacs

My first post, and I had to start with the OBVIOUS. If you haven’t been to the west coast and tried In N’ Out, you are truly missing out on one of the best things ever made on this earth. I’ve had almost all the best burgers in the WORLD, but this small fast food chain always seems to stay on the top of my list when it comes to burgers. I always order the double double with cheese (sometimes I get animal style- grilled oinions/sauce). You gotta ask for animal style because they don’t advertise it on the menu. I ALWAYS get animal style fries though. The best! The menu is simple, and I’ve learned that sometimes simplicity is the key to success. It’s simple, fast, cheap and delicious. A MUST have if you’ve never been. You’re honestly missing out on life! Oh, and their milkshakes are amazing. They only offer vanilla, chocolate and strawberry but you can mix any of them together. I get vanilla-strawberry 🙂
