Last week JP and I went to two spots
where one was new to each of us. I had recently found out that
Yardbird opened up nearby at The Beverly Center so we went there. I
planned on getting the meal JP ended up getting until I saw a
hamburger that sounded good and got that instead. She got the
Lewellyn's Fine Fried Chicken that included a petite cheddar waffle
and some spiced watermelon. Yeah. We know. This was really good and
had half of a fried chicken. This was the lunch menu so I was able to
get The Great American Burger with a side of really good fries. It
consisted of short rib, brisket and chuck blend, house-smoked pork
belly, American cheese, house pickles, and special sauce. So good.
For dessert which is rare for us to get after eating we had the
Peanut Butter Pie Bar which had bacon butterscotch ganache, roasted
white chocolate crumbles. I'll definitely head back here. Prices are
a bit more than we usually pay at places we eat but since we're
adults with jobs and don't do this often...fuck it.
Afterward we headed to Trejo's for some
donuts. JP had never been just as I'd not been to Yardbird. They
rotate flavors in and out so I got some different ones than when I
went with Miss Jackie a while back. The cinnamon crumb was good but
needed to be buttery. The margarita one was good and tangy but JP was
not a fan. We both loved the hell out of the bacon one and it had
some top tier bacon on it. We both agreed we would go back just for
that one alone. The dulce de leche was...whatever. Not terrible but not close to the best. If you wanna hear us ramble about this day along with
a lot of other nonsense not suitable for children or the elderly
