They were out of the tuna ones. Also had the peanut butter toast and a hash brown. Unfortunately the egg pancakes lacked egg - I think it was a small one too. The peanut butter toast barely had peanut butter. I really wanted to like this place but I don’t. I love a good Taiwanese egg pancake 蛋餅 I also like their concept. But at those prices and the execution - I can’t say I like it. The other couple of times I tried to go they ran out of food before they closed, which pissed me off. Anyways. I cannot recommend. And I will not return.Fri, 20 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://thirstypig.com/posts/2026-03-18-diamond-jim-cut-at-lawrys-the-prime-rib-the-yorkshire-puddin/https://thirstypig.com/posts/2026-03-18-diamond-jim-cut-at-lawrys-the-prime-rib-the-yorkshire-puddin/Diamond Jim Cut at Lawry’s The Prime Rib the Yorkshire pudding, creamed corn, and cream spinach.

I kinda like this interior better than the Ktown one I like the counter. It’s kind of cool to sit at a counter. This time we had the chicken rice and also the Hong Kong style toast. The toast was really good at inside. It had condensed milk, which is sweet. It’s actually a really tasty dessert. Again I would recommend and I would visit again. Just like the ktown one.

I couldn’t decide what to get, since they sounds interesting - so I got a flight to try them all. Unfortunately, after the first 2 - they tasted similar since I was starting to get a buzz. I think it didn’t help, when I also ordered a flight of their whiskeys to taste, too. So 4 different old fashioned and 4 different whiskeys. It was a good night.

Highly recommended by a friend, I had to try these immediately. Got the smoke salmon pate, chicken curry rice, and the beef onion. They were all good. Who doesn’t like hand held meal while peruse around the market. I liked the beef onion - with my bias for the more savory.

We went to the Olympic Game Farm to visit retired show biz animals and rescued animals. We saw and fed bread to adorable yaks, mean lamas, bears, peacocks, bison, reindeer, elks, and a few others. We stayed in our cars and threw bread, which was sold by the park, to these guys. Some of them stuck their heads inside our car and wanted more. We saw peacocks showing off their feathers, had ameome animal tongues licking us for more bread, and poor rain deer running to us for the last pieces of bread - we should have gotten more loaves. It was an unexpectedly fun experience that brought the kid in us out. . . .Fri, 09 May 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://thirstypig.com/posts/2025-05-08-bogachiel-river-rain-forest/https://thirstypig.com/posts/2025-05-08-bogachiel-river-rain-forest/Bogachiel River rain forest. A nice 3 mile loop. I wasn’t planning to complete it but I passed the point of no return a long time ago, so I was begrudgingly forced to finish. Luckily I found a Gandalf wizard walking stick to help me along the way. This was a really cool trail with fallen logs along the trail. But there was mud pits every so often that I tried to avoid. We saw elk tracks here and there. But we didn’t see any animals. I think the animals heard me complaining. This nature hike might have been the best one yet. . . .Thu, 08 May 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://thirstypig.com/posts/2025-05-08-rialto-beach-and-the-hole-in-the-wall/https://thirstypig.com/posts/2025-05-08-rialto-beach-and-the-hole-in-the-wall/Rialto Beach and the Hole-in-the-wall. Some of 20k steps later and lots of complaining we did a jaunt or walk along the picturesque and driftwood strewn beach. We almost made it to the Hole-in-the-wall, but it was getting late and the tides were coming in(or out - not sure, or maybe I was complaining too much). After reflecting on the walk, I had no regrets in enjoying this experience. I started off with layer after layer on this breezy beach, but by the time we finished I tore almost everything off since I was overheating and sweating. This is a do not miss in Olympic national park in the PNW. . . .Thu, 08 May 2025 00:00:00 GMThttps://thirstypig.com/posts/2025-05-07-some-pics-from-my-camping-at-olympic-national-park/https://thirstypig.com/posts/2025-05-07-some-pics-from-my-camping-at-olympic-national-park/Some pics from my camping at Olympic National Park. Visited La Push Beach and Bogachiel river. The lichen trees was something to beholden. The beaches showed the power of Mother Nature with the driftwood. Beautiful and all natural. But chilly. Luckily we had no rain. Hikes were longer than I expected and yes I complained like a MF. Sorry. But no regrets. I am not an outdoorsy person, but I’m all about experiences. I’m glad we went now even though it was chilly - got to the low 30s, since it wasn’t crowded at all. Fun times, can’t wait for the next adventure!
