Title: Purple Kow
Date Taken: May 6, 2012
Purple Kow! I've been hearing so much about it and finally got a chance to try it! I got the "Purplekow Iced Milk Drink with Caramel & Grass Jelly & Boba" (pictured above). It was good, but I must say - it is such a large portion! The venue is really tiny and there's a long wait. I wouldn't go out of my way for this drink, but if I'm in the area and have some time to kill I'll definitely get some :)
Title: Pork Ramen
Date Taken: June 23, 2012
I went to Ramen Parlor who is known for their lobster based broth. I'm not a huge seafood fan, so I actually just got their regular pork ramen (pictured above). It's good, but my heart still goes to Santa Ramen. If you're in the mood for ramen, planned on going to Ramen Dojo but realized the line was too long (or what have you) - just shimmy on down about a block and Ramen Parlor is right there! The place is slightly larger than the other two and can seat more - they even have their own parking lot area!
I think overall the ramen is good. I think the only complaint I would have is that the egg was cold. But other than that I would go again :)

Title: Bibimbap

I went to Dae Jang Geum Tofu House and got the bibimbap (pictured above) - always my go-to dish when I'm trying a new Korean restaurant :) It was delicious, and the service was good. They surprisingly let me and my friend sit there and chat for a long time; there was enough seating and steady turnover even for a Thursday evening. I would definitely go back :)

Doesn't this look super healthy? And fancy? It is... yet not really? Maybe?
Rice, green cauliflower (not broccoli!), green peas, and grilled KFC!
It was delicious~

Title: Vivi Bubble Tea
Date Taken: May 11, 2012
Vivi Bubble Tea! They were having a deal at the time of buy one get one free on a regular milk tea. I didn't have anyone to get the deal with, so they offered a free upgrade (see largest one on the right side). It was the best and worst decision I made that moment. It was delicious, but combine that with just finishing lunch, ice cream, exhaustion, and the hot weather and I got a recipe for disaster D: But I love milk tea!
