This hot chocolate is huge. It is so big that you can probably take a few laps in it! Call me crazy, but I like it without whipped cream so that I can enjoy the milky frothy top layer. The best part about this hot chocolate is that it isn't too sweet, but hits that sweet spot craving just right.

House Park BBQ is so generous that when you order a dish like this better than average Chopped Beef BBQ Sandwich, you get to leave the establishment with the aroma of smoke permanently embedded on your clothes. What a great bonus to this sandwich whose bread is a little on the stale side!

If you are a chocolate fan, this is the cupcake for you. Spongy, soft and not too over the top with cacao flavors this sprinkle covered treat will put a smile on your face. Make sure you have a glass of whole milk nearby to help enhance your cupcake experience! All in all, I would say hello to this charming Airstream stand again, but I would recommend that they figure out an alternative to the paper cup on the cupcake itself. When I was done eating the bulk of the cupcake I estimate 25% was still stuck to the paper and was not easy to remove. It was frustrating because my brain did not savor the last bite thinking there was more, so I resorted to eating the paper and all. ...still good, but avoidable. Right?

In this category of sushi (upper-mid-range), this is my favorite spicy roll. It is created with a nice spicy tuna mixture, jalapeño pieces and is topped with crushed red pepper. The jalapeños are not fresh (they look canned), so they are a bit less spicy than others I've had with fresh, raw peppers. The crushed red pepper is a fine powder and also adds a nice kick without being too spicy. It doesn't overpower the fish at all. I recommend this roll for those who like spice without too much burn.

Only available on Fridays, this ceviche taco rules. It is fresh and healthy tasting. I prefer a flour tortilla with this one. The fresh ceviche is loaded into the tortilla with guac, diced tomatoes, peppers, and onions. Pair it with a chicken fundido for the perfect Friday lunch.
