Deep Fried Pickles a food that just sounds so odd but is quite delectable. This is by no means the kind of food that you are going to find in a 5-star restaurant, you’re more likely to find them in a county fair, a BBQ joint, or a diner that make good ol’ fashioned comfort food. From what I understand these have been around for a while but I just discovered (at least got brave enough to try them) within the last 6-8 months. Since then I have become addicted. I have had both fried spears and fried chips/slices. I must say I like the chip/slices a little bit better. What do they taste like you are probably wondering? Well that is kind of hard to explain they are warm, crispy on the outside and have a DILLicious inside. The ones I have had have been served with either ranch or a horseradish sauce for dipping, again I prefer the latter, as I am a big horseradish fan. All I can really say is if you get a chance then try them or you will not know what you are missing. If your wondering where you might find some there is one restaurant that has an affinity for owls and the color orange that carries them.

OK I just downloaded Microsoft’s Live Writer as a client to use when posting to this blog. It looks like a really scaled down version of Word or maybe Word Pad with a few extra features. I will be using this for several days to see how I like it and who knows it may become a permanent tool.

After a disappoint incident this weekend that resulted in me not getting to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings I was left with a craving for some Buffalo style wings. I decided to take a chance and try Wing Stop

in Point Loma, Ca. I must say I wasn’t too disappointed. They aren’t BWW but they were meaty, juicy, not under cooked and the sauce wasn’t half bad. I was able to try two sauces with my combo order so I chose the hot, which was a thick buffalo sauce with good flavor and just enough heat. My second choice was Garlic Parmesan. I chose this at the recommendation of the cashier. I must say this was good but not great, they were basically wings tossed in a very light coating of garlic butter and than covered with Parmesan cheese. There was no heat to them at all. I may considering ordering them again as they were a nice contrast to the heat in the hot sauce. My combo also came with some fries. Now this was a surprise, not that I got fries with the combo but that they were fresh cut, hot, with a delicious garlic season salt. These were excellent. I will definitely have these again. Overall it was a good experience that calmed my craving.
