red lobster endless shrimp!!! final ranking at the end
I went to Red Lobster to have their 27 dollar endless shrimp deal, which apparently they lost 11 million dollars because they underestimated how much shrimp people can eat and I'm not sorry for contributing to that because it was so worth it. You start with the unlimited cheddar baby biscuits which I used to love as a kid and then my friends and I basically ordered all 8 shrimp options to try everything. The garlic shrimp scampe is a safe option you can't mess this up and same goes for the Wall Trim which is basically battered butterfly shrimp. The grilled shrimp skewer was seared to perfection, it was perfectly cooked. The shrimp offrido was good for approximately 1 bite and you realized you shouldn't be wasting some space on cream and pasta. Honestly I was pretty shocked at how fresh the shrimp was and nothing was overcooked at all but this first round was so easy. I think we collectively probably had like 64 shrimp so we had to keep going. Next was one of my favorite Steve crispy dragon shrimp which is sweet and a little bit spicy from the chili sauce but after that we collectively agreed that the coconut shrimp was in a bombination, it's so sweet and can only be salvaged with some hot sauce. And lastly to kill a lime shrimp kind of just hates to like a grilled shrimp skewer but I'm not complaining and I think I put away 32 shrimp so I'm pretty proud of myself but here's my fan ranking. Ok bye.

"I just love the bread

those late night shawarma cravings hit different.. got this from IRAQI CHARCOAL GRILL the supreme way.
It's 2 a.m. and I'm craving Shorma. I just love the bread. Garlic has so much flavor. There's so much meat inside. Look at this crispy bread. That chicken is so juicy. So like the Kobe Bryant of Shorma's. It's an easy 9.5 out of 10.

"The sushi bar was insane, so many variety of rolls into shimmy and classics like a soup station and bread station
Caption
Dragon Pearl buffet literally never disappoints!! The szechuan crabs were sooooo good dont sleepoppp on those crab legssss
This is my favorite Asian buffet, especially during the holiday season. On weekdays, they're having crab legs with butter and steak served with chimichurri sauce. You never really eat your money's worth at a buffet, but just the steak and crab leg alone, I feel like it makes us super worth it. On weekends, their menu is even better with lobster tail, steamed scallop, and abalone with chicken pot. I'm always blown away by the variety I drag and purl buffet. The peak induct station is definitely iconic and a personal favorite. Their dim sum bar is always loaded with so many shallong balls, shoomais, and I noticed that they keep their food really fresh and always refill the food very quickly. There's also a really good variety of different food stations like their grill, grilling a pineapple, steak, chicken. The sushi bar was insane, so many variety of rolls into shimmy and classics like a soup station and bread station. Their dessert bar was just insane. They also have really great mocktails and drinks that were so refreshing. I went on a weekday with my mom and it was super duper packed so make sure to make a reservation because people were lining up. Honestly, I'm super sad that this is their last weekend for their Christmas menu, but if you have a chance, this is definitely worth checking out. Just look at the tongue-who-lose, crumb-rule, fruits, ice cream. Honestly, this is a foodies heaven. If you haven't been to drag and purl buffet yet, it lives up to the hype.

Rating Foods (pt.1): Asian Grocery Store 🍣👓
Let's raid foods from my local Asian grocery store. Today I'm super excited to be trying out my Rayman Meta glasses to help me capture some hands-free footage, while picking out some very fun foods in the grocery store. Pats a grapis, Earl Grey Milk Tea, before we did any shopping. I love this Asian grocery store, especially going through the snack aisle. They always have something so fun and exotic or very nostalgic at least. I feel like the food is way more fresh here and there's so many options, especially for seafood. I was so excited to find this viral fruit ice cream. I was in the sizes about which flavor to get, but mangoes always go through for me. I really love this grocery store too, because they have a whole selfie booth section in a food court. In a gaming section with some coin slides. I found a couple of fun food options to try. So let's rate them. First thing was this macro negiri. It was tasty, simple, and will make a perfect quick snack. I give this to eight out of 10. Next were these sweet potato chips. It tastes just like canned sweet potato. It had a nice salty sweetened balance. I give these to seven out of 10. Next I got these Tokoyaki flavor cheese puffs. They were airy crunchy and were full of a barbecue-like flavor. For me, I give this a six out of 10. And lastly was this viral mango shaped ice cream. This by far was my favorite pickup. It is not over height. The outside is like a white chocolate encasing. And the inside tastes just like a mango milk tea. It was a 10 out of 10. Overall today we had a fun mix. Let me know what I should try next. And huge thanks to my Rayban medical astas for helping me capture today's experience. Y'all should definitely check them out. This is such a fun accessory.

my favorite solo summer date just got even better 🧺☀️ you can grab these Cherry Slurpee® almonds at 7-Eleven while supplies last!​
There's something about an afternoon at your favorite park with the sun beaming. No real agenda. And a new hyper fixation snack that we'll always hit. And I'm partnering with Blue Diamond Almonds to share something that's been making my solo dates hit even more. The new Blue Diamond Cherry Slopey Flavor Almonds. These have such a fun and nostalgic vibe. And a boost to protein and fiber to keep me going. It's truly the little things like enjoying your own company, people watching, finding joy in the quiet moments that make summer feel magical. Okay, these were hitting. And you can pick them up at your local 7-Eleven before they're gone.
