 “Mexican Dinner” Lomita, 2025

We rolled into SoCal right around dinner time and made a beeline for Alfredo’s, a place we visit often and for good reason. The carnitas here is excellent. Tonight I mixed things up and swapped the usual rice for fries, and wow, that was a great call. I would absolutely do that again.

Also in the photo are the Chile Verde, Carnitas Burrito, and Carne Asada Burrito. Only Koa was able to finish his meal. He’s only in his 20s so he can still eat a huge meal without skipping a beat

The portions are massive, so I ended up taking more than half of my meal home. That means I have at least one more delicious lunch waiting for me!

 “Combo Plate” Lordsburg, 2025

Koa and I kicked off our road trip from Texas to California today and put in a solid 10 hours on the road. We rolled into Lordsburg, New Mexico, checked into our hotel, and then headed straight to Ramona’s for dinner. I stuck with the old standby, Combination 1, which comes with a taco, enchilada, and tamale. It hit the spot after a long day of driving. Tasty, comforting, and definitely something I would order again. 😆

 “May and Chicken” Cedar Park, 2025

Mariko had some guests over for lunch today, and one of them brought their dog, May, along. She was very interested in the karaage and kept a close eye on it the whole time. Watching her was such a flashback, she reminded me so much of Lani.
