That udon chew though 😮‍💨🍜✨

Thanks @zen_handcrafted_udon in Sunnyvale for having me! 🧡

They make their udon in house, and you can feel it the second you bite in 🤤 Thick, bouncy, slurps up every drop of broth 🥢💦

What we got:
🍜 Premium Seafood Cold Udon
🍜 Tonkotsu Udon
🍱 Tokijou Deluxe
🍚 Unagi & Ikura Hot Pot Rice
🍮 Chawanmushi
🥢 Otsumami (tako wasa, spinach, eggplant)
🍙 Yaki Onigiri with Mentai
🍶 Sake flight to wash it all down

Don’t sleep on the chawanmushi 🍮
It’s loaded, with shrimp and mushrooms packed into every spoonful of that silky egg 🦐🍄

Came for the udon, stayed for the sake flight 🍶😌
Bring friends so you can order half the menu like we did 🙈👯‍♀️

📍173 S Murphy Ave, Sunnyvale, CA 94086

Okay real question: cold udon 🧊 or hot udon 🔥? 👇

⊹˚˖ 𖡡 Telefèric Barcelona

⋆˚. ᵎᵎ Located in Los Gatos, Telefèric Barcelona is an upscale Spanish restaurant. Staff were friendly, professional, and attentive. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Parking can be limited during peak dining hours.

🍷༉‧₊˚ Telefèric Sangria: Deep red wine flavor with a hint of cinnamon and lemon. On the bitter side.

⋆·˚🍷Barceloneta Sangria: Fruity, sweet, and refreshing.

🥔 ༘ * Patatas Bravas: Baked potatoes were seasoned well and had a crispy exterior. The sauce and aioli added extra creaminess and flavor.

Send this to the person you’re overdue for a weekend getaway with. 🤍🍷

A little piece of European elegance tucked away in Napa Valley.

The interiors alone are worth the visit. Every room is so beautifully designed, and the attention to detail is incredible. It honestly feels like stepping into the pages of a design magazine.

And then you step outside to the most beautiful Napa Valley views. Such a dreamy place to spend an afternoon. 🥂

📍 @lewiscellars | Napa Valley, CA

Save this one for your next Napa day! 🤍

Just found out @nayadessert.sanmateo opened another location in @downtownsanmateo 🍰

Clocked out but not ready to go home? 👀 They open at 5pm on weekdays, right when you escape the office. They know exactly who it‘s for 😌

What I ordered:
🍞 Kaya Toasted
🍓 Strawberry & Cream Croffle
🧋 The Black Thai Tea
🥤 Ice Ovaltine
🍋 Yuzu Fresh Soda

My favorite was the Kaya Toasted. Two scoops of vanilla ice cream on top, pandan custard, coconut flakes and almonds tucked inside, with sliced banana on the side 🍌🍨

Save this for your next after-work hangout ✨
