Anchorage Dishcrawl

Wednesday, May 8, 2013
Ross surprised me for a midweek date night with tickets for a culinary walking tour, aka Dishcrawl. Ross found out about it from a co-worker and he thought I might like it too... because I love food :)

What is a culinary walking tour anyway? You walk to four different restaurants and they have a pre-fix meal practically waiting for you. And you leave without paying, which basically makes you feel like a rockstar.

The weather couldn't have been more beautiful and we had a lots of fun!

Stop 1: City Diner- Breakfast Slider, Chicken Fried Bacon, and Blue Cheese Chips.
 City Diner Verdict: Skip It!! The food was just not good. Granted I'm not a greasy spoon kinda gal, but all the other "Dishcrawlers" seemed unanimous, this one was a thumbs down.

Stop 2: Kubo Filipino Restaurant- Adobo Chicken, BBQ Pork, Egg rolls, and rice


 Kubo Verdict: Not bad. If you're in the mood for fast, cheap food this would be a good stop. Another good neighborhood alternative on a crowded weekend night. It's tucked away in the corner of a fairly obscure strip mall, so easy to pass by. I liked the adobo chicken the best. Ross tried a new beer so he was extra happy.

Stop 3: Peter's Sushi Spot- Ceviche roll, Cucumber sushi roll, Almond Scallop


 Peter's Sushi Spot Verdict: My favorite stop. I definitely will go back there to eat. The place has nice decor and the sushi was fresh and well priced-ish (sushi and well priced don't belong in a sentence together).

Stop 4: Superstar Pastry- Red Velvet/German Chocolate mini cupcake, chocolate chip/snickerdoodle cookie
Verdict Superstar Pastry: I'm picky about baked goods, but this place passed the test. The cupcakes were moist and had good flavor. I wasn't a big fan of the frosting, but otherwise good. The cookies were probably even better.

GREAT date night Ross! Can you say brownie points?? :)
