Wildfire in Sydney Australia

This is just a quickie, a full review will come later. We ate at Wildfire last night… and really enjoyed our meal! We had read mixed reviews but are left wondering how anyone could say something poor about this place. Our service was excellent as was the food and decor. If you’re in Sydney I highly recommend checking it out!

Andale in San Francisco International Terminal

Just grabbed a quick bite of dinner in the San Francisco International Terminal. This terminal is awesome… it must be fairly new and has a good selection of shops and restaurants. We chose Andale, a fairly straight forward Mexican restaurant. We ordered fajitas to share and some chips and salsa to start.


The chips and salsa were good… but a bit on the oniony side. The salsa is salsa-fresca, which I tend to avoid because of the overabundance of onions… and unfortunately the guacamole had even more onions than the salsa. The chips, however, were definitely good: crispy and fresh while not being greasy.

The fajitas were surprisingly good (considering that we’re eating in an airport!). We got a combination of beef and chicken and both were well spiced and cooked. They even avoided making the beef chewy, which is often the case in cheap airport restaurants. The rice that came with the fajitas was fairly bland while being well cooked.

All in all a pretty good meal if you find yourself in the SF airport!

Headed to Sydney Australia!

Just a quick heads up that we’re going to be headed to Sydney Australia soon! Because of that, the blog might be in a bit of disarray for a week or so as I upload reviews from the road using nothing but my iPad. The first entry written this way is the Cafe Trang review below… and as you can see it’s a bit off from my normal style.

Anyway… look for new reviews from (way) across the pond soon!

Cafe Trang in Salt Lake City


I have had a soft spot for high quality oriental style food since I lived in Washington DC and enjoyed some really excellent Thai and Vietnamese restaurants. So when I travel I was keep my eyes open for a good place to snatch up some spicy oriental inspired dishes.
