I tried this assortment of snacks at various locations Sunday at lunch and dinner. All to go. The first is in a nondescript group of one story structures on Edgewater near Digress Wine. One of the last commercial spots on that road before DT (50). The second is just across 50 (south side) on Mills. On the right. The third is at East End Market. On the second floor. The fourth is in the strip mall on the opposite of the EEM on Corrine where Redlight Redlight is. The last is a food truck in front of RL RL. But, It isn't there usually,
Yeast Coast Bakery - They said they soft opened in August. Just six pin wheel type baked options. I had a ham and cheese for $6. Small. Overpriced. They also had sweet ones like cinnamon rolls. One employee. No seats. Seedy look. Affiliated with some coffee place up the block. Only open Fri-Sn from 8am-2pm or sold out. Internet has different schedule. You can pass.
Burrow Cafe - Just drinks and a tiny plastic box of store bought baked goods. Looks good though. Curved bar. High ceilings. Interesting architecture. Light tones. Windows. Not sure if USAID is funding them. Said they provided space for things like day care. A totally Gen Zero manifestation. Opened just recently. parking seems like a pain. Only went here because the selection at YCB was so disappointing. Not as disappointing as this though.
Wafu - They make those snapper (tai) shaped waffles (yaki). Open for a while. I had tried to try them since day one. But, they don't open until 2pm. On weird days. I had a kurabuto pork sausage with mozz one and a bacon with cheddar one. Both cost $5. Both were pre-made. They said fresh ones would take forty minutes. Not sure if these were mistakes or sitting there since 2pm. They were ok. A bit tough. The sausage was Asian sized. Nothing special either. Looked like a Vienna sausage. The bacon was good. Half a strip. A waffle is less than hand size. Both had cooled. Better when nuked. You know I just saw an old episode of Hot Ones where David Chang said microwaves were the best cooking tool! They had a few other savory and sweet types. Ice cream. The line was long. So many people waiting disappointedly. Two workers. No seats. Kind of a bother. Two McGriddles are now $5 at McDs. And they have egg. I was here for Gyu Katsu Rose. They seemed like a pain (wait list) and I was in ten minute parking and they don't offer to go dishes. It seems like their gimmick is hot stones that you cook on. I thought it would be fried stuff. I guess it is more about the meat half (Gyu).
Meat N' Bone - A meat shop with locations in south and west Florida. Fancy cuts. Game. Some sake and wine and charcuterie. Some seafood. Looks nice. Lots of glass fridges. Opened recently. Still can't sell the alcohol they display. No kitchen. Didn't buy anything. A 6oz of octopus carpaccio was like $12. 2oz of Serrano Ham was $16. Parking is a pain.
The Pass Kitchen - Unsure how long in business. They have a physical store in Altamonte Springs on 434. Heat up meals. I had the (4) grouper empanadas for $12 because I forgot about Bark Haven and the Burger Jawn truck wasn't where it is said to be and I was starving. They were ok. smallish. A bit fishy. Good cream dipping sauce. Not oily. Came out quick. They also had mostly Mexican dishes and a ramen ($14).
*Travel Notes - NFL Pro Bowl at Camping World Stadium in Orlando: I finally went. It was kind of fun. I left at halftime because I had concern for my car, I showed up too early and I can't handle traffic any more. A nosebleed cost $29. I bought it there. I had to do the digital ticket off their texted wifi link bs. Just text the ticket qr code! I may be being too much of a bitch about that. It was about half full. I moved around. Parking in an Asian lady's yard across the lake (Loorna Doone) at the morth end cost $20 in cash. It was up to $40 a bit closer. Some at $30. I didn't get boxed in and no door dings. Parking up to the stadium needed to be pre-purchased.
