TPUMPS
It’s always my go-to boba place. So of course I had to get the largest size. 😉

Happily drinking boba 🙂

🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

BOBA GUYS

Athough not as good as TPUMPS, Boba Guys is also delicious. They have decaf teas as well as caffeinated teas, and also sell Taiwanese pineapple cakes.

My favorite food!

SMITTEN

Smitten is a unique San Francisco-based ice cream store that uses liquid nitrogen to freeze their ice cream.

Because the reaction is so much more complicated than regular ice cream, Smitten only has 4 flavors for each of its 4 ice cream stations.

That day, they had Strawberry White Balsamic, Cookie Dough with Pretzels and Chocolate Chips, Sam’s Whiskey Chip, and Classic Vanilla.

Since I (sadly) couldn’t have the whiskey chip, I had to settle for the strawberry, which was the cashier’s recommendation.

🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

In honor and in loving memory:

With food trucks like Curry Up Now, Kokio, and Chairman, you can imagine how us foodies couldn’t resist the temptation.

We started off with some Sexy Fries from Curry Up Now- they were very sexy, by the way:

And Pork Belly Buns (and braised ribs buns 😉 )from Chairman:

We also tried something new. We’ve been to Curry Up Now and Chairman many times before, but this time we decided to try Kokio. Mainly because as foodies, Kimchi balls and Korean fried chicken are very appealing to us. 😉

The kimchi balls were surprisingly delicious, and Korean fried chicken is ALWAYS a must.

So overall, 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

As is the way, ice cream was had BEFORE dinner (reference previous post). Or in our case, linner. Either way, TIS THE WAY.

Our light dinner/linner consisted of 3 pizzas. Hey! There were many people present, I promise.

The BROCCOLI RAAB:

THE SALSICCIA:

THE CLAM PIE:

Overall, I would say the Salsiccia was the best, The Clam Pie the second best, and the Broccoli Raab the most eh.

🙂 🙂 🙂 1/2

Cheers! (Again)

Hi guys!

You’ll notice that over the summer and especially over the next couple of weeks I’ll be completely updating and renovating the blog.

So I just thought I’d tell you some of the few major changes I’m going to make.

1) THE TITLE

Yes, that’s right. This blog will no longer be Kids Who Like To Learn, Travel and Eat. Instead, it will be something new and profoundly creative that I have yet to come up with.

However, it will stay the sophisti-kids. Because lets face it, despite all of my built up teenage angst, I’m still that little girl who sings Disney songs in her bedroom. Just a little bit more sophisticated.

2) THE LOOK

I’m changing the background of the blog, so hopefully it will look better aesthetically by the end of the summer. Cross your fingers for a better looking blog!

3) BASICALLY EVERYTHING ELSE 😉

Before you freak out, I’m still keeping all previous posts on the website.
There will just be some *minor* changes.

Now, every once in a while depending on vacation and school schedule, I will post “Spotlights”, where I will talk about the food and travel portions of the blog.

Additionally, I will be posting weekly “favorites” about whatever is trending or interests me at that moment. This can include favorite song, musical artist, clothing style, restaurant, movie, etc. Let me know how you like the new improvements I’ll be making and make sure to comment!

Cheers!

Anya 🙂
