Even though I'm totally digusted by the fact that Elvis used to (allegedly) fly his private jet across the country to pick up his favorite peanut butter banana bacon sandwich, part of me finds it relatable. If you had a private jet, what would be in your grocery list?

Pumpkin Kaddo - Cambridge

There are probably places in Afghanistan that are more authentic than The Halmand in Boston, but I still have dreams about this dish.

Pumpkin Kaddo Recipe

Some genius posted an Afghani pumpkin recipe “a la Halmand,” and I actually tried making it once. Pretty close!

 

"Soup In The City" - Bonn, Germany

There was a little hole-in-the-wall soup place called “Soup In The City” near my study abroad quarters that had the best lamb stew ever. Plus unlimited free bread.

Hopleaf Fries - Chicago

Again, I could probably find the best Belgian fries in Belgium, but you could hardly imagine the food fantasies I have about these perfect little cripsy fries with their decadent aioli.
