Snippets of Food Exploration:
Long Beach California
Great American Bakery, Seattle Airport

Tried this while on transit in Seattle from Japan to Alaska. First time I tried genuine American bagel. It is huge and I tried to finish it. Luckily it was a good one. They have a wide range of fillings choices. This is when I learnt how to drink the thick American black coffee and getting used to it. I heard Seattle coffee is the best so I tried. The sugar choice is also vital in order to enjoy the American coffee. Since I could not find the normal sugar, I tried the sweetener and well, it is so unpleasant.
Location: Seattle Airport, USA

Service - Awesome! I was served by a cute good-looking guy (anyway, he is much younger than me so..just enjoy the look). He seems to be attending to my queries amiably and suggested a few stuffs for me to try.
Taste - Love it!
Price Range - $15++
Food Quality - Not bad. They have selections of sauces served with their main dishes. Don't ask me what are they as I am 'very good' at sauces.
Seating Area - Moderate, comfortable and red!
Location - Accessible. It is around the Long Beach main area where there are lots of shops and near the convention centre.

Fresh Kabobs
Taste is acceptable. Service wise, the lady who served me was okay however, there was no follow-up from the waiters whether my food was served. It took around 15mins till the chef noticed it and hand me the food.

Islands Restaurant
(Fine Burgers & Drinks)
Initially, I thought I am not gonna finish this gigantic burger BUTTTTTT THENNNN...I DID!! And read this..I was not hungry but I could not resist the taste. It was a shroom burger and was like the best burger ever! Its with mild soft bread and the fries were delicious too. I suspected they used some secret recipe to make this fries. But anyway, it was a delicious meal. Environment was comfortable and it was packed with customers. The employees were friendly and make sure customers were served promptly.

P.F.Chang's Chinese Bistro
Whenever I traveled to other countries, I will avoid eating Asian food which is common cuisines in my home country. However, since I had been staying for 2 weeks in USA, I could not stop myself from having an Asian meal. This...is the Mee Singapura-Seafood. And it does not taste anything much like what I had tried before. Its abit sour I guess its the lime, but friends... this is pretty good! Like really good taste. No regrets. So don't judge the mee from its name.
Environment of the place is abit formal, so if you feel uncomfortable especially if you are alone (not loner or anti-social), you can sit at their bar or the one outside. It was cold so outdoors is very cooling.

The Funnel House
Churros Churrosing...I realised I did not take the photos of the churros. Anyway, I cannot find any of the inside section of the cafe too. By the way the churros is not bad just that I did not really understand the taste. Is it supposed to taste Cinnamon-like?
The staff who served me was helpful and approachable. The menu has toppings and all but since I was too full, I could not try any of it.
