School got hectic, I needed to find an internship, and I was just too busy to document what I ate, as I ate it... however, now that I'm more settled for the summer (and in SF! for an internship), I believe I will begin writing more on here. I'm currently living in a house with a kitchen, so I want to do more cooking and how-to posts, since I am on a budget and eating out is more of a luxury, for now. Below are some of the highlights of the past months, food-wise (from most recent to least recent).
Both vegan curries from vegan Japanese restaurant Cha-ya, in the Mission district in SF. Not exactly traditional fare, but lots of vegetables and flavor!
Further back--got to visit Source in SF (SoMa). Everything on the menu can be made vegan. I enjoyed one of their specials, which was a spicy Sriracha ziti with delicious soy-based protein (it even inspired me to recreate the dish the day after). Before that , I went for vegetarian (possibly vegan) ramen at Suzu in JapanTown. A lot of veggies and good broth.
A delicious vegetarian risotto-type dish at the Italian restaurant (trattoria) in downtown, Barbacco. The ingredients were fresh and high quality. Definitely would visit again if there were more vegetarian options (this was the only entree I could eat when I was there).
Going back to East LA/Inland Empire (aka, the college stomping grounds)--delicious vegan pho from my favorite Vietnamese restaurant, Pho Mai. Love going there and looking forward to returning this fall when the semester starts. On the right is another fresh, delicious creation from Dr. Grubb's (vegan, too).

Overall, I've had a productive and delicious three months away from this blog. However, I'm ready to come back now and post more of my food experiences, recipes, and tips! Thanks for reading.
