Last weekend, I had my last ever meal at Rasa Contemporary Indian, an upscale Indian restaurant in Burlingame, California. This restaurant has a special place in my heart because it was the first ever Michelin starred restaurant I ate at, back in 2018. Since then, I’ve gone back more than 10 times, which is an absurd number of times for …

I didn’t have the highest expectations, but I hoped it would at least be a decent meal. As …
For our first night in San Luis Obispo, I chose to eat at Café Roma. I don’t typically seek out Italian food, but I was travelling with family, so I selected different restaurants than I otherwise would have. I narrowed it down to two Italian restaurants in the area, and Café Roma seemed more authentic. I didn’t have super high …

I picked one up and was instantly intrigued by its claim to combine molecular gastronomy with classic Indian cuisine. Shosha Ambience Shosha calls itself a …
