Coffee in Paris: Café Kitsuné


West Texas BBQ






Yesterday we went to Evie Mae's BBQ in Wolfforth- ranked #9 on TEXAS MONTHLY'S list of top 50 BBQ joints in Texas. We had a party of 5 adults and 3 children.  We ordered a #12- which is a sampler plate with 1/2 lb of each meat and a couple pints of sides.  For the sides we ordered the green chili cheese grits (droool), regular and jalapeño corn bread, and beans.  For desserts we ordered a banana pudding, chocolate pecan pie and coconut cream pie. I wasn't sure there would be enough to fill all of us, but when we were through eating there were leftovers.

Everything is made gluten free (except for the complimentary bread and beer. Yes, beer).  They open at 11am, but you better get there early if you don't want to wait in line for an hour or so.  We arrived at 10:30am and all of the outdoor tables were already filled with people standing around. For the line-up, they let people sitting at the tables go first and then everyone falls in line behind them.

The ribs were my favorite, but I think I might need another visit to reevaluate.


A Day in Kittery

We started out Columbus Day going to my son's music class and then headed straight to Kittery, Maine. We weren't sure what we were going to do once we got there, but we knew we wanted good coffee. After a quick search on Yelp, we decided to go to Lil's Cafe because they serve Tandem coffee (one our favorite's).










After enjoying a cup of coffee and one (or three) of their cruller's, we headed over to a park in Portsmouth, NH- just over the bridge.



Then we headed back to Kittery and got a nice pizza at When Pig's Fly.


By the time we finished lunch it was about 3pm and we weren't sure what to do...traffic was awful so we decided to head back to the coffee shop and figure out what to do from there.




Right across the street there's a nice view of the harbor and a great place for boys to throw rocks.




We thought about going to another park, but hubby had a headache and I was exhausted. So we decided our foodie adventure was good enough and joined the traffic home.


Curio Coffee

Yesterday we visited Curio Coffee in Cambridge. In a short 4 months they've built up a reputation for great coffee and addictive waffles- the only food item on their menu. Their space is small (maybe seating for 15?), but a really pleasant place to hang out. Every wall says, "take a picture of me!"  And who am I to refuse a beautiful wall.








We weren't lucky enough to find a seat at the shop so we found some steps to loiter on nearby (only long enough to finish our treats). Excellent coffee, yummy waffles, cute decor. Check it out.
