DIY Day: Tuna Carbonara & Korokke

Another DIY Day with us, and we decided to make some Tuna Carbonara and some Korokke for lunch. The Tuna Carbonara is something we did before and we decided to try it out once more. Other than that, Mimi came across another idea on the Internet for us to cook. We made Crunchy Meatballs or Korokke. Its made with ground beef, and bread crumps and is easy to prepare. Your hands get a little dirty, but they're well worth the work.


P.S. These two combine make for a VERY heavy meal.

Italianni's: Chicken Italianni's, Carbonara, Watermelon and Pineapple Shake

It was another Italian day out as we celebrated our 26th Monthsary at Italianni's. It was our first Italianni's together, so we decided to take your appetite there. It was really cozy place to be and the food was great. Up for review, Chicken Italianni's, Carbonara, Watermelon and Pineapple Shake.

The monstrous Chicken Italianni's

THE VERDICT

He Says: The Chicken Italianni's was huge! I didn't know it would be like that. The Potato Wedges were awesome. Soft and with the right amount of Saltiness.  The Italian Sausages had the right amount of Spice and Meatiness. The Chicken had a lemon-y flavor to it because of the herb-wine sauce. The Chicken Italianni's was amazing. The Carbonara was classic. Creamy and the bacon was awesome! The Pineapple Shake was legit. It was made from 100% Pineapple. Nothing but the best.

Rating: Chicken Italianni's = 10/10; Carbonara = 10/10; Pineapple Shake = 9/10


She Says: It was our first Italianni's date together :) I got the Carbonara, Serving size is okay, it was good and you get what you pay for. nothing too special though. The Chicken Italianni's was something special though. It was scrumptious! It had this little lemon aftertaste to it.It was really good! The watermelon shake tasted like watermelon placed in a blender and served (I mean that's how it's supposed to be right?) But I was hoping that they would've at least tasted it and made it more appealing to my taste buds. A little sugar would've helped but it was good enough, I guess.

California Pizza Kitchen: Carbonara and Hawaiian BBQ Pizza

Pizza, anyone? Where's a good place to chill, good food and delicious pizza and pasta? You'd think this place, that place, but we're pretty sure you're not thinking about California Pizza Kitchen. CPK is really good restaurant with a good vibe and good food. Up for review, Hawaiian BBQ Pizza and Carbonara.


Um. Gangsta Harry Potter? Haha.



Quick view of the place
see the TV's in the back?





Panorama!







Carbonara!





Hawaiian BBQ Pizza.











A little ouch on the wallet.


THE VERDICT

He Says: I want my resto to look like this place. The vibe is just so chill, plus it has a great view. Moving on to the food. The Carbonara is very creamy and good. Thick enough and flavorful. Downside is that it's a little small. Love and I bought a sharing size place, but it wasn't enough. The Pizza is something. Sweet and Tangy BBQ Sauce with good Chicken. Definitely coming back for it. I wanna try their Salad too. I heard it's good.

Rating: Pizza = 10/10; Carbonara = 9/10

She Says: I've been a fan of this place since I was young and it's still one of my favorite places to eat! Their pizza, tasty! you can really taste the fresh ingredients and serving time is really quick. I also found their serving size just right :) I don't think Gab remembers how FULL we were when we ate there. haha. The place is very chill. The staff are very attentive to our needs. We just turn our heads and they come right up. :)) We will definitely come back :)
