I love mediterranean food – the flavors are so delicious and I could honestly eat hummus by the spoonful. It winter and I want to eat things that are warm and comforting but also that still nourish my body and won’t leave me sluggish. I developed this recipe just for that! The warm naan andContinue reading “Chicken Kofta Gyros + Tzatziki”

Big Truck Tacos
Big Truck Tacos has been a fixture in OKC for as long as I can remember! They started out as a food truck long ago and then they opened a restaurant on 23rd street – also as long as I can remember. In fact, I can’t think of a time in my life that BigContinue reading “Big Truck Tacos”
Johnnie’s Charcoal Broiler
Have you ever had a charbroiled burger? Well if no, they are delicious! Johnnie’s is one of the oldest (actually it is probably THE oldest) burger place in OKC that is still slinging burgers today. It opened in 1971 and is known for their charbroiled burgers! Charbroiled burgers in my opinion are juicier, smokier, andContinue reading “Johnnie’s Charcoal Broiler”

Korean Braised Short Ribs
I don’t make short ribs often because honestly they are pretty pricey for the amount of meat you actually get and they are fattier than the cuts of meat I normally eat. I know, I know – fat adds flavor. And while I agree, it doesn’t mean you have to always enjoy it! Whole FoodsContinue reading “Korean Braised Short Ribs”
PDX Cookies – Pt. 2
Monstrous. Gigantic. Mega. Just a few words to describe these huge cookies. But don’t let the size fool you or dissuade you from trying them. The bigger the better, right? At least that is what Texas always says…although maybe we shouldn’t follow their example. In this case though I think we should – these areContinue reading “PDX Cookies – Pt. 2”
Roxy’s Ice Cream Shop
I remember Roxy’s ice cream being so delicious it was hard to say no to for an after dinner dessert or just a midday treat. My most recent trip there was a bit different.

Clarity coffee used to be another one of my favorite coffee shops when I lived in OKC. It was vibrant and colorful and bright – a real cool space to grab a coffee and have a conversation! They featured local artists that often painted/drew very colorful art. On my recent trip, the store had changedContinue reading “Clarity Coffee”
