Is it just me or does food from a food court located inside a mall never sound enticing? It seems like it’s just fuel to keep the shopping energy flowing. Anyway, it seems like I go through the same routine everytime I end up eating at the mall, I take a full walk through just to end up getting Thai. I’ve had their papaya salad twice so far and I’m a fan. Though, both times I’ve forgotten my camera, but trust me it’s good. They ask you if you want it spicy, medium or mild. Their spicy is really really spicy, so I suggest to go medium, which I did and was still slightly too spicy. It’s made fresh right in front of you.

Now, not every thing is good there. They have this crushed ice dessert that sucks donkey dick.

Looks good right. When I saw this I thought it was shaved ice with coconut milk and a variety of toppings to choose from to top it off. Finally, more toppings to choose from, I was so excited. Not that I don’t love shaved ice, but it seems like all they have for toppings is the usual azuki beans. Don’t get me wrong, I love azuki beans, especially on my shaved ice, but I also love my variety. Well, I should of took this ad literal. It wasn’t shaved ice, but crushed ice. It seriously was chunks of ice, like they put it in a bag and hammered the hell out of it, then dumped it into a bowl. The toppings were delicious, but who the hell likes to bite on chunks of ice as a dessert? Whatever, it was only $2.75 and the toppings were good.

I just wish more shaved ice places would offer these toppings.

A while back before grocery shopping at Don Quijote I made a quick stop at Fiore Frozen Delight for some refreshing frozen yogurt. I’m a huge fan of shaved ice, so when I saw that they offered their frozen yogurt with shaved ice along with 5 toppings I couldn’t resist. The whole thing cost me $5.97 and was most definitely a waste of my money. It left an after taste in my mouth similar to that of vomit. No, this time I’m not trying to be funny, I’m dead serious. You know those times when you have a little too much to drink and burp up a little throw up and it leaves a sour taste in your mouth, that’s exactly what it tastes like. Not to mention, the ice underneath the yogurt was crunchy and hard. Shaved ice should be soft and fluffy. The toppings were scarce and not very fresh. No other flavored syrup was added to the ice. What’s the point of eating yogurt on top of ice? A lot of bites were just oreos and ice or granola and ice. The dessert just didn’t mix well. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. It could have been a fluke; maybe they didn’t wash their machines out enough or business hasn’t been very good so the yogurt went a little sour? Who knows.

The funny thing is, about a month later before grocery shopping we gave our roommate a call to see if he wanted to meet up for lunch. What can I say, we all just can’t get enough of each other. Anyhow, Shane ends up coming back to the table with, yep, Fiore Naturally Regurgitated Yogurt.

I said, “yuck, you like that nasty shit.”

And he goes, “I’m not really that hungry, I just wanted a snack” and then realize that I said I didn’t like the frozen treat in his hand which comes off really odd, since I have a passion for sweet treats. “What, you don’t like this?”

I explained to him that I thought it tasted like you burped up a little throw up. He takes another taste, pauses, and then goes, “now I can’t eat this, I know exactly what your talking about,” and didn’t take another bite.

Also, take a look at their ad. It just looks like throw up in a glass.

Now I’m not saying everyone will hate this. The guy next to us had some and ate every last bit of it. If your bulimic this will probably have a familiar taste for you, like moms homemade key lime pie right after you sneak away to the restroom and deep throat a coat hanger just to regurgitate it back up. Yum!

Sushi Robot is another place outside of Don Quijote. It’s not a bad place. They’re reasonably priced and fast. Actually, all the food is already made and wrapped up for you, just grab, pay and eat. There’s plenty of covered benches right to the side. I wasn’t really in the mood for meat today so I got some kind of vegetable dish. I’m not sure if it even had a name, but it looked decent, different and it was cheap. You get white rice, an egg patty, steamed lotus root, mushrooms, potato balls, carrots and pickled radishes to the side for under $3.00. If only all my meals were so cheap.

Ray got a small tray of sushi. Nothing crazy, just the typical radish, tofu and tuna roll. That too was under $3.00.

We brought bottled water, as I always do. I make it a habit to bring bottled water everywhere I go. It’s healthy and saves me money. If your on vacation I recommend you to go to Costco, Walmart, or Don Quijote, since it’s right there, and buy a case. This will probably save you around $45. dollars as oppose to buying a drink every time you go out to eat. Buying individual bottles will not save you money. Anyway, the sushi was good. Service was fast, I didn’t get that fat lard feeling afterward and best of all, I spent less than $7.00. If you want directions click below.
