Cubana Cafe: Yummy, Yummy In My Tummy.

Oh. My. Gosh. This place rocks. After walking two miles to discover the place we had planned on going to dinner was closed, Alex and I ended up at this fabulous joint: Cubana Cafe. The inside was small and homey and the decor made me feel like I just stepped into a party in Cuba. The walls were bright, seating was tight and the food was comforting.

To start off we ordered a Relleno de papa: crispy mashed potato stuffed with savory ground beef, served with a tomato cilantro relish and it was so, so good! Next we moved on to what I'm assuming was baked slices of Plantain with some homemade sauces.

Finally it was time for the main course. We ordered a Shrimp with Roast Garlic Platter with tomato salsa, rice and black beans and Palomilla: pounded chicken breast marinated in garlic lime and onions, served with rice and beans. It sure did hit the spot!

Steak 'n Shake

    

    
     This past week I have been at Myrtle Beach with six of my friends- one of whom is obsessed with Steak 'n Shake. The whole ride down to South Carolina all my friend Jordan could talk about was how excited he was to get to Steak 'n Shake. When we arrived to the place "famous for steak burgers" he was in heaven.

      We all sat down and got to looking over the menu and couldn't believe how cheap everything was. Their menu is full of unique burgers but that's not all they have. This place has a full menu of breakfast, lunch, dinner and milkshakes. Check out the full menu here.

 

    I indulged in the Prince of Royale Steakburger which was topped with bacon, cheese and a over hard egg. To finish it off I also had a Salted Pretzel Milkshake for dessert and it was amazing! The best part about this place is the prices- $4 for a burger and fries and $3.75 for a huge milkshake. Can't beat it!
