This is the Indian Burger served by Cafe Santa Rosa in Tucson, Arizona, which is I believe owned by an O’odham family.

It’s a hamburger patty, green chile slices, onion, tomato, lettuce, cheese, ketchup, mayo and mustard served on frybread (which is known as a “popover” in southern Arizona).

🍽️ Tito Chef's Gourmet House 📍 692 Dr. Zavalla St., Brgy. Kanluran, 4026, Santa Rosa, Laguna

Here’s yet another budding eatery around the lively city of Santa Rosa. While its rustic motif seems fragmentary from the get-go, you’ll eventually find yourself wanting to go back because of their immaculate meals.

This café’s just a one-minute walk from our place, and I’m thankful that restos such as Tito Chef is within reach. I don’t need to go to SM Sta. Rosa or any similar restos offering palatable dishes.

Pros:

✔️ FRIENDLY, FRIENDLY STAFF. Once you enter the gourmet house, you’ll be greeted with polite staff. Commendable customer service indeed. ✔️ Food’s relatively cheap. For as low as 129 PHP, you may buy a flavorful bowl meal with tasty toppings.

Cons: ❌ No WiFi. Listed this as a con as the vibe here is ideal for working remotely. ❌ Their coffee selections aren’t the best. In fact, they offer the worst coffee drinks around the area. The flavor of ice overpowers the taste of their iced coffees, making them less delicious. I also remember sending a complaint upon seeing floating dead ants on my french vanilla mocha; however I was awed by their swift response and told me that my next coffee drink purchase’s on them.

Must-trys:

✅ Salt & Pepper Chicken with Fried Rice ✅ Overload Fries ✅ Crispy Chicken Fillet with Stir Fry Fried Rice (this is my go-to meal!) ✅ Beefsteak Sandwich ✅ Honey Garlic Chicken Sandwich

P.S. Tito Chef’s should seriously consider subscribing to Spotify Premium. Nakakawala ng mood kapag ang ganda ng tugtog, tapos may biglang ads sa gitna ng pagse-senti. LMAO

Overall rating: ⭐️⭐️

La Revolución

Carlos lived in Santa Rosa, a small village in South America. He worked at a local market and dreamed of helping his family and creating a better life. Due to the turbulent political situation in the region, business was poor and there was little to do. He often felt helpless because of the economical situation.

There was a lot of violence and conflict between different groups and factions. The Americans were trying to help the local government and the people, but they also had their own interests and agenda. Many people blamed the Americans for the problems and hated them. They thought they were invaders and oppressors who wanted to take their resources and control their lives.

Carlos was walking home from the market when he saw a group of American soldiers passing by. They looked strong and confident, unlike the local people who were scared and oppressed. Carlos noticed one soldier who stood out from the rest. He was Jake, the captain of the team. He had long blonde hair and a muscular body. He wore a green uniform and a black beret. He carried a rifle and a knife on his belt. Carlos felt a surge of admiration and curiosity for the tall American soldier. He decided to follow him and see where he was going. He saw him enter a small cafe and sit at a table. Carlos gathered his courage and walked in. He smiled and said hello, then he reached into his pocket and took out a golden ring. It sparkled in the light and caught Jake’s eye.

He said he wanted to give the ring to Jake as a thank you for the Americans’ help. Jake was touched by Carlos and felt guilty accepting such a valuable gift from a poor guy. Carlos said it was a lucky charm that would protect good people from harm. Nevertheless, Jack let the ring slip on and Carlos also put a ring on his finger and secretly wished he was Jake. Suddenly, they heard a loud explosion nearby and saw a cloud of smoke in the sky. Everything went black and both guys felt dizzy. When Carlos regained consciousness, he was in Jake’s body and saw him in his own body. Jake was shocked, confused and angry “What the hell have you done Carlos?!” Carlos explained that the ring somehow switched them. He said it was an ancient magic that only worked once.

They heard screams and shots - rebels had attacked the village. They had been waiting for the right moment to strike.

Everything was a trap. Carlos had planned it all along. He was the leader of the rebels. While he was a very good strategist, he lacked the strength and body for combat missions. He had used the ring to swap bodies with Jake and gain his power and skills to protect his people and to destroy the Americans.

Despite being an excellent fighter, Jake was captured in the weak and unarmed body of Carlos. It only took a moment to overpower him. The rebels skillfully tied his hands and feet and finally dragged him into a small cage where he was helpless and trapped. He looked at Carlos, who was standing outside the cage. He looked confident and proud, as he gave orders to his men.

Jake: "I thought the ring was a good luck charm to protect good people against harm and not to betray me?"

Carlos: "That's what the ring is for. Because the harm comes from the Americans and your body will be of great help to protect my people."

Jake felt hopeless and angry, but he could not do anything to escape.

As a result of Carlos' new powerful body, many others were encouraged to join the fight and fight for the rebels. Jake watched as the rebel numbers grew and Carlos became an even more dangerous opponent for the Americans.

Mon 8/5

After breakfast at our hotel, we set off for home along the coast. We stopped for a short visit in Redwood National and State Parks. Drove the amazing Drury Scenic Parkway through magnificent coastal redwoods, and took 2 short walks into the forest along the way. It was like being in Jurassic Park- we expected to see a velociraptor among the ferns and gigantic trees! Next we stopped to see the Big Tree, one of the very largest in the Parks. Got lots of nice pictures on all of these stops. After picking up park brochures at the Kuchel Visitor Center and vowing to return, we headed south to Eureka for lunch. We had raw oysters, fried calamari & chips at Cafe Waterfront- really good. Then we tackled the rest of the long drive home, on 101 through Ukiah, Santa Rosa and Marin County. It was a very long day but so worthwhile.

Brouwer's Cafe hosts Stour Fest 2024 during Seattle Beer Week featuring Tilquin's Fruit Extravaganza.

https://bit.ly/3V2lRJZ image courtesy Brouwer’s Cafe Now in its 15th year, Seattle Beer Week returns May 17th and runs through May 24th. Hosted by various businesses up and down I-5 (or interstate to ya'll), there is something every day for everyone. As one of those businesses which has supported Seattle Beer Week since its inception, Brouwer's Cafe invites you to attend one of their events. Re-introducing Stour Fest. What's Stour Fest? It's a union of two one day events, hosted in the many years under the names of Sour Fest and Back in Black Stout Fest. Originally designed to focus on so-called sour ales and lagers, Sour Fest was a one-day event that featured domestic and international beers, ranging from the near-absent-tasting sour to the mouth watering. Each unique and each glass followed by an evening reminder that too much sour can affect the stomach. On the other side, a showcase of stouts. From a vast library of variations, Stout fest included barrel-aged and non-barrel aged stouts. From imperials to the traditional stouts, there's something from everyone. Now in its second year, Stour Fest is back, and they have a week of fun planned. Starting on Saturday, May 18th, Brouwer's Cafe kicks Stour Fest off by showcasing the beers of Gueuzerie Tilquin. As the only draught house on the west coast, authorized to host the "Tilquin Fruit Extravaganza", Brouwer's is featuring the following beers.

November 1939: Adoption Rumors

November 2, 1939 – Miami News

Clark Gable and Carole Lombard will be a papa and mama soon, via the cradle route…

November 3, 1939 – Des Moines Register

Their not-so-private affairs: The simple, pleasant process of going out for dinner can and does provoke a minor crisis in the lives of some folks. 

The Gables, for instance, would much prefer to stir up something at home. 

But the other night, Clark and Carole decided to brave the tourist gantlet and eat out – their first café appearance since their marriage. Clark had just finished a radio rehearsal and the Brown Derby loomed invitingly around the corner. 

Stares.

They strode boldly through the bar and into the Derby’s jam-packed dining room. Sightseeing customers getting a wallop out of the presence of Wallace Beery and three “B” actors dropped their silver and stared in astonishment.

Soon a crowd began collecting at the door. Autograph seekers from the nearby broadcast studios came on the run. Three policemen joined to force the fanatics back. 

Meanwhile, the excited café manager phoned his publicity man. Two photographers appeared from nowhere. Bulbs flashed. The Gables were photographed looking at the menu, then looking at each other. 

Bolder. 

Pretty soon the tourists grew bold. One by one they brought over menus to be autographed. When the check was placed on the table, Clark merely glanced at it and pushed it toward Carole. She settled and left a crisp bank note for the waiter. 

The job of getting into their car demanded police help. 

Inside the Derby, the head waiter was conversing with the press agent. 

“Whatdye suppose ever brought them out?” asked the H.W. 

“Why, ‘Gone with the Wind’ of course,” returned the P.A. “Don’t you know Gable and Lombard have gotta go to Atlanta for that world premiere Dec. 16? They were bucking the crowd here just to get in training. But boy – wait’ll they get a taste of that southern hospitality!” 

November 14, 1939 – San Pedro News

Take those Carole Lombard-Clark Gable adoption denials with a grain of salt…

November 17, 1939 – Hartford Courant

Carole Lombard was buying some guns for Clark Gable’s birthday between takes on her latest picture. She pointed one of the guns in the air – and down came a dead duck – planted tehre bt Brian Ahern

November 19, 1939 – Los Angeles Times

Clark Gable and Caroel Lombard will feast at home.

November 20, 1939 – Minneapolis Star

FASHION AND LOCAL INDUSTRY NOTE: Out in Hollywood Clark Gable is sporting a brand new, fringed bucksin jacket made for him by Carl Scherer, Minneapolis taxidermist. So pleased about it is Clark that he’s just ordered a whole suit of the same.

Incidentally, Carole Lombard has also done a bit of shopping in town (by mail). She bought a whole flock of wooden duck decoys from Leo Boutin and Leo’s already had two reorders on them.

November 24, 1939 – Los Angeles Times

Hollywood studios closed yesterday for observance of Thanksgiving in accordance with President Roosevelt’s proclamation advancing the day one week ahead. Film celebrities for the most part remained at home for turkey dinners, although the popular cafes reported many reservations. 

Clark Gable and Carole Lombard invited numerous friends to their ranch for a spread with all of the trimmings, while George Raft entertained at his new home.

November 24, 1939 – Morning Post

Every place we stopped the “insiders” are convinced that Carole Lombard and Clark Gable are going to adopt a baby boy right after the first of the year. 

All I could say to the reporters and fans who asked whether the stories were true is to quote Clark, who says the Gables are not going to adopt a little boy and if they become parents the baby will be one of their own.

November 25, 1939 – Santa Rosa Republican

Clark Gable and Carole Lombard have sent 12 “prize chickens” to the Rev. Kenneth Engle, who married them in Kingman, Ariz…

November 26, 1939 – St. Louis Globe

Although Carole Lombard and Clark Gable have denied the baby adoption story, their intimates say the denial is made in a merely Pickwickian sense. 

November 26, 1939 – Oakland Tribune

Bride Carole Lombard should find very little difficulty in arranging Clark Gable’s menu. He’s rarely eccentric about his food, except that when he Dagwoods out to the refrigerator for a late snack, “Blondie” Lombard is likely to move over to the edge of her side of the bed. Onions! Nothing is so tasty to Clark as a raw onion sandwich.

November 28, 1939 – The Kansas City Star

Carole Lombard called up her home and asked “Is Mr. Gable there?” And this is what the maid shouted to Clark – “Hey Pa, Ma’s on the phone!” Even Carole thought this was carrying informality too far. 

November 29, 1939 – Ogden Standard

Carole Lombard and Clark Gable are not going to adopt a baby – because they’ve decided in favor of the Gable brand.

“Some Old Halo” Saw an old halo in a pawnshop On a shelf of odds and ends Just like the one I lost years ago Betting on a losing hand Wore it proud Before my wings got clipped Curious now If it still fits Wonder how much To get it back Could you help me out And spare a little cash? #writingoncoffee (Too many people - when they make mistakes or miss their mark - give in, give up, cave to the feeling that they’re too far gone for redemption or that success is long beyond reach. Turns out the halo may still fit if you’re willing to get it back. Ever felt that way? If so, let’s chat. Don’t ever be afraid to ask for a little encouragement, a little pep talk) (at Cafe Santa Rosa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CplSRfnuRuR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This morning we lost Harriet Crommelin. Ms. Harriet lived life with passion and adventure. Having just returned from an Antarctic trip, and cruising from South Africa to Brazil. Harriet was a amazing woman and created one of the finest restaurants in Florida, Cafe Thirty A. We are in shock at her sudden passing. She was an older sister to me and I will always have her in my heart. #cafethirtya #30a #30alife #santarosabeach (at 30-A Santa Rosa Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/Coar9tPuAjH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
