Past Food Adventures

A few weeks ago my friend, Syafiq, came to Denton to hang out with me and we went to a few places around town and The Square. This is a first food post and it happened several weeks ago so I won’t give you a complete in depth report of it, but you can at least see the yummy things we had!

Ramen Republic

210 East Hickory Street
Denton, TX
www.ramenrepublic.biz

We had hoped to go eat at this Thai restaurant called Andaman but they were closed for an hour and we were too hungry to wait around so we just went to Ramen Republic across the street. Syafiq had the Salmon Udon Pho and I had the King Curry with Udon noodles.

It was a good amount of food at a decent price. Syafiq and I both have Asian backgrounds and agreed that Ramen Republic was the white man’s Vietnamese Pho restaurant.

Beth Marie’s Old Fashioned Ice Cream

117 W Hickory St
Denton, TX

Next we stopped by Beth Marie’s on The Square. I was way too full to enjoy some ice cream but Syafiq got a Root Beer Float with Black Cherry ice cream.

Later that evening, we went to Dallas and met up with our friend Cassie and stopped by Twisted Root.

I had never been here, but the place was pretty cool. They have a different “In-house ground Game Meats” every few weeks or so. The week we went, they had kangaroo and buffalo. Syafiq got the kangaroo burger. I tasted a piece of it and I don’t think I could enjoy it as much because I felt more guilty than anything. It was good, I just probably couldn’t eat a whole burger of kangaroo without sobbing halfway through it. Cassie got a Banana-Bailey’s Adult shake, if I remember correctly. It was made with chocolate vodka and Bailey’s and it was really good!

This was a long first post but next time we’ll bring you with more reviews and better pictures and lots of details and less story telling!
