I've had a busy, BUSY week and I forgot to wish my favorite Thai restaurant a happy one year anniversary! @Lanlamoon has been a Daytona favorite of mine since my first visit! The last time I went and was able to eat inside, Ploy recommended these really amazing milk-based drinks, and for the life of me, I cannot remember what they were called. But, I LOVED it. And I'm NOT much of a milk fan either. The food was incredible as always. So it doesn't matter if you're a Daytona resident, traveler or any Florida foodies that want to try somewhere new for a great dinner and amazing service; please go try Lan Lamoon, you will NOT regret it!

Alexa, play thinking bout you by Frank Ocean ⠀ - ⠀ Soooo... I've been to @restaurantmxtaco, four times since taking these pictures and if you've had a conversation with me, one of the first places I'll recommend is here! If you haven't been to MX tacos you're missing out. It doesn't matter if you're a vegetarian or a vegan either they have so much to accommodate anyone! The food, margaritas, and sangria are all extraordinary! They also have brunch on Sunday, I haven't been yet but I'm beyond excited to try it out! ⠀ -⠀ Have you tried Mx tacos? What's your favorite thing to get?

So uh, I just found out that I have been living under a rock because when I tried @ilovebuttermilk over the weekend; I instantly wished I lived closer to their bakery. I prefer having a savory baked good over a sweet one, and they did not disappoint with their savory options. The caramelized onion, olive, and feta scone had me by the name alone. Somehow it was even better than I imagined it would be. None of the ingredients overpowered the other while being the largest scone I've had, none of it was dry at ALL, which is even more incredible. I want to go in-depth about everything, but! On the off chance that you haven't tried Buttermilk bakery too, you have to change that asap!! Trust me, you'll be glad you did!

My cookie posts have been SLACKING this year. But I'm back, with a new to this page but not new to my heart favorite! The first time I ended up getting food from @Europeanstreetcafe was COMPLETELY by accident, and I was given one of their Tempeh Reubens. Which is not some I had before, so I figured, fair is fair, I'll at least eat a bite. Now, as someone that isn't a fan of Tempeh-especially the texture-I was and still am BEYOND impressed by how amazing that sandwich was! I definitely recommend getting food from them! ⠀ I was also given a chocolate chip cookie from them as well. This was way before my days of being an extreme fan of an Orlando cookie place. European street Cafe's chocolate chip cookie is incredible, period. I always have been and will be pro flaky salt on cookies; however theirs are topped with turbinado sugar, which for one was mind blowing the first time I had them and two is a GREAT option for people that don't like salt on their cookies! Whenever I'm in Jacksonville, and I want dessert they are in the top three of the places I pick! I think I may have tried all of their cookie options, or I'm EXTREMELY close!⠀ ⠀⠀ But on the off chance you don't love cookies; they offer cakes too!! Let me tell you, their carrot cake (not pictured because the drive home was a long enough wait) is one of the best carrot cakes I've ever purchased! It's completely original in a way that I've never had, but is so addictive that I'm DEFINITELY attempting to make a copycat of theirs this holiday season!⠀⠀ ⠀ ~I have to give a huge shout out to @Natedoesfood for telling me about their carrot cake!~

So, I'm more of a night owl, than a morning person. Unless I end up staying up all night and decide to start my day at normal people's time. OR! If there's a donut pop-up like there was almost two weeks ago with @cakeheadcc and @dg_doughnuts. Which made me an extreme morning person and it was worth it!! The rum cake donut, is something dreams are made of. I didn't get a solo shot of it, because 1. I was in my car, and it was 7 am and 2. Once I picked it up, I kinda had to take a bite. It was completely out of my control at that point. Not only was it my first trying the amazing rum cake, but also Dg Doughnuts and they both are amazing and I cannot wait to support them both again!!!

Happy October y'all! We're 9 days into the month of allllll things spooky, but I've managed to do something every foodie fears, I cut my tongue last week lol. So here's a photo dump of all the things I wanted to have while I was unintentionally fasting. ⠀ - I lucked out when I went to @thebreadandboard they ran out of rolls, and they gave me a biscuit with my holiday turkey board, I am not even JOKING when I tell y'all that I have thought about this at least once week since I had it!

Thank you @qreatecoffee for giving me the only joe exotic I've found interesting🧡🖤

It's National Doughnut Day! Not to be confused with National Donut Day which is the first Friday in June! But with the way 2020 is going, any day that we have a ~valid~ reason to eat a doughnut is a good one! What's your favorite doughnut?

As much as I wanted to save these tacos for Tuesday, I absolutely couldn't!! Since yesterday was so nice, I couldn't help but throw some stuff on the grill! Especially since i've been craving tacos too! I love having different options, so for my proteins I had steak, fish, shrimp, tofu and vegetables! I primarily use @olemex_labanderita authentic Mexican corn tortillas, they're some of my absolute favorites and I have actually been using them for the last six years! ⠀ ⠀ My personal favorite taco, was the tofu and vegetables. Grilled onions, peppers, mushrooms and corn with tofu and a homemade Pico De Gallo! ⠀ Make sure you visit the link in bio to get a #coupon and find more great summer grilling recipes with @olemex_labanderita! ⠀ Do you prefer corn or flour tortillas??⠀ ⠀ #TortillasLaBanderita #OleMexicanFoods #Asada  #ad #hbtolemexicanfoods
