Burgers Galore at Smashburger – Review from Toddler Trails

Jennifer from Toddler Trails gave Smashburger a nice review. Check out the great review.

A twist on the typical hamburger, Smashburger takes the burger to a new level. Every burger starts with a fresh, never frozen, ball of natural 100% certified Angus beef. You also have the option to select a tender marinated chicken if you prefer a different option….

Chronic Tacos – Best Breakfast (Monster) Burrito

Check this out! As a follow up to my first video about Chronic Tacos’ breakfast burrito, I decided to go back to Chronic Tacos and see what was going on.

I gotta tell you, the food there is amazing. Great flavor, and fresh. The ingredients are classic but have their own flavor. I also think their Baja sauce goes well pretty much with everything I’ve tried there.

This time I went back for another breakfast burrito. But I asked Juan, if he would mind if I recorded the whole thing, he was like yeah! Let’s do it. And so I got most of it on video. I got to test out my new phone’s video camera as well.

Here are the results.  It’s crazy, and when we weighed the burrito, I couldn’t believe how heavy it turned out to be.

Thanks to Foursquare, I Got a Free Sub (Heritage Plaza Shopping Center)

Quick cool story wanted to share with you. I recently discovered that the Togo’s near my house had a check-in special. And the only reason I’m telling you this is because months ago I told some friends that a good way to use Groupon, more effectively was to reward the consumer after they’ve made their first purchase. And not at during the first time, for example, buy one get one free… on your second visit. Seems like Foursquare can accommodate such a request with a checkin special. Continue reading

Looking for a Breakfast Burrito in Irvine? Chronic Tacos has your back

I love this place and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite fast casual mexican food places. I’ve had their nachos, tacos and now breakfast burritos.

I didn’t get a chance to take pictures of the food here because I was in a rush. I was in a rush to eat it, because it was so good.

In the video you’ll see a breakfast burrito with eggs, chorizo and machaca. Amazing stuff. Kept me satisfied until dinner. Price was pretty decent and it came out to about 7 bucks. The machaca was extra, but normally they’re around 5 dollars.

The location is convenient if you live in Irvine. You’ll find them at Alton Continue reading

Sprouts at The Market Place in Tustin

My wife first told me about this grocery store, in Tustin. The location is odd, it’s in a mall; I think the space used to have an electronics store before. But anyway, I thought okay, this is just another one of those healthy organic trendy stores, but it wasn’t. Well, it is and it isn’t. It’s a good mix between the traditional supermarket and the small mom-and-pop shop organic grocery store.

You can actually find mainstream stuff in here, with  their brand names that you’re used to. But they still have a lot of their organic and health-conscious foods that you might be looking for at other healthy organic stores. The people there are so friendly it’s not even funny.  There’s a guy name Bert (I think that’s how you spell it) and he’s always at the checkout counter and by now, he recognizes us because we go there so much He has made great recommendations about wine and coffee and is always just eager to help you.  pretty much the rest of the staff is like this as well.

There’s also another worker that I run into once in a while,  his name is Corey, and I know of him because I see him hustling around the produce area but I also know him because he is the foursquare mayor there and as hard as I tried to steal the mayorship I just can’t and he’s always there always checked in.But in any case maybe I’ll steal the mayorship one-day.

The produce they have here is really good, I like it, it’s less expensive than the mainstream big stores around here.  They also have a great selection of wines, both international and domestic,  that New Zealand, Chile, France, and of course your local Pinots, whites, merlots etc.  and have a great meat counter  lots of different types of cuts, sausage, prepared meats for grilling and even have a deli counter to get a sandwich or something like that;  I haven’t tried those yet.  fresh bread is always around and I really just like this place a lot.  if you’re in the neighborhood or you’re looking for a new grocery store stop by and check them out.

Chase Cleaners in Tustin

Chase Cleaners are really cool, I’m lucky to have found them because my other previous dry cleaners got a little pricey for me. Also, I had to drive about 5 miles to get there. Don’t get me wrong, Irvine is not that big if you’re driving, but driving across town just for dry cleaners didn’t make sense.

Excellent service and prices! That’s how I have to open the first review of my new blog. Thanks for reading, and don’t forget to subscribe so you can keep up with my reviews!

I’m really close to The Market Continue reading
