Everywhere here the weather is beautiful- I love where we live!! Another perk is the amazing variety of cuisine we are surrounded by on all sides. I visit other parts of the country and realize how lucky we are.
I come across interesting restaurants on foot, through word-of-mouth, in the newspaper, and online in places like FoodBuzz and Yelp! I try to keep a running list of places I want to go, in the hopes that someday I'll go to all of them. Not to mention all the repeats at hits in the past; these are just places I haven't been to yet.
It'll keep growing, but here is my summer '08 Wish List.

This weekend and next are full; tomorrow is the 4th at the in-laws, followed by some time at my family house and obligatory lounging. Next weekend is our wedding anniversary, and that means a fabulous evening at one of our favorites, still to be determined. So the list will have to wait a little.

congrats in advance on the wedding anniversary - how exciting :)
love that you developed that list of places to go - they all sound amazing!
have a great 4th of july :)
Aww your wish list sounds like fun Sarah! I adore Indian food and Vietnamese...and Japanese. Those are my 3 top favorites. Dim Sum is great too though- I don't like most chinese because it is just so gosh darn oily/greasey....but I like that a lot of Dim Sum can taste light...plus it's just so gosh darn cute!!
Vietnamese and Japanese are such great summer foods too. I am in great need of some good asian food. I only get to go out to eat if I have fam in town or I am visiting back home. Not to worry, my Mama comes at the end of the month!! Hopefully that means sashimi or vietnamese pretty soon afterall!
Happy 4th and have a wonderful weekend! I always enjoy reading your blog!!
I didn't realize I said "gosh darn" so many times. That's really odd, as I never ever talk that way. I think I use that phrase once every couple months. Strange!
kokkari is great :)
