"Last day of our #aboutdotcom #chicago #sandwichtour and we're going HAM! Starting off at @xocochicago with their ahogada made with golden pork carnitas, black beans, + pickled onions submerged in tomato-arbol chile broth! 😍😍😍😍"

"White truffle cacio e pepe with a sous vide egg 🤤🍜 Updating my LA City Guide + got all weepy when i saw this insane creation from @unionpasadena again. I miss it. 😖"

"Last nights dinner at @forequarter was ahhh-freakin-mazing, as always!! The toast with stracciatella (basically burrata innards 🤤), marinated squash, pickled fennel, herbs + nuts was perfection..."

"But I WILL NEVER STOP DREAMING about the dessert! ✨💕✨ Sweet pea + sorrel wedding cake with strawberry-honey buttercream 😍🍰💕 Good lord it was beautiful in every single way possible!!! @jermjohnston, not even kidding, i want to fly their baker down to make this for our wedding!! 💁‍♀️💕"

"Omfgggg feeling so inspired by breakfast today! Sweet potato rosti topped with a big ole slab of goat cheese, kale, poached eggs, Turkish dill yogurt, pomegranate seeds, pine nuts + avocado. Can’t wait to play with these we flavors when i get home!!"

"It finally happened! We started the day with a traditional full English breakfast + a honey chili smashed avocado toast with poached eggies on top 😋💕 The eggs here have the prettiest orange tint to them + they taste so much better than American eggs! Don’t know how they do it, but someone around NSB needs to crack the code for real. 🤔🍳💕"
