More food porn...

Three things...

First, I understand that I probably shouldn't put word into the title of a post on a blog that's linked from my school page, but I'm taking a risk.  There's absolutely nothing in this post that's pornographic.  There are, you are warned, pictures of food that may make you drool, however.

Second, check out the Foodbeast blog.  It's a nice mixture of restaurant reviews (in and around SoCal where the blog seems to be centered), food newsish items, and food porn on their own.  When they do post food porn, they generally link to the recipe to make the item.

For example, there's the Peanut Butter & Jelly Nutella Tart...


...the chocolate chip sweet roll with peanut butter icing...


...the Inception burrito...(through which I found the blog)...


...bacon jam & cheese pannini...


...Frito-Lay Reese's Cup bark...


Ok, I have to stop now before I short my computer out from the drool.

Third thing, apparently there's this restaurant called Slater's 50/50.  I know because Foodbeast blogs about it from time to time.  I guess it's an Anaheim burger joint. 

Their burgers look phenomenal.  Check the menu and the pics...

...chili cheese Frito burger...


...venison burger..."bacon infused ground venison patty, topped with Granny Smith apples, red onions, candied walnuts and a house made blue cheese aioli"...


...Thanksgiving burger..."Ground turkey burger topped with stuffing, turkey gravy, cranberry sauce and a generous helping of sage mayonnaise"...


...vampire burger..."their special Vampire Dip (Garlic, Cheese & Artichoke) with minced fresh jalapenos and diced bacon, then STUFFED inside Sterling Silver beef and topped with two more slices of bacon on a warm flakey bun"...


...California burrito burger..."fresh guacamole, pico de gallo, a bed of french fries, Carne Asada seasoned choice ground chuck and topped off with a smokey chipotle sour cream between two flakey buns"


...even the chicken bacon flapjack burger..."a combination pancake + fried chicken + bacon infused country gravy + more bacon + pancakes as the buns and drowning in 100% pure Maple Syrup"


Yeah, I gotta go eat something.

And I gotta get to Slater's...

So, the big question is whether or not these admittedly delicious looking burgers will lure you back to the West Coast...since you've sworn off that area of the world since your 2002 jaunt out there??

And...which one of the sugary things do you think we should make for G-burg?

WV. skies - come on...they're not even trying.

I'm horrified by how bad these things may be for me, but I am also intrigued by how amazing they look.

I must make some of them.

Calen - for me, it's the burgers that look awesome. I don't care whether they're in LA or not, I want them.

Slug - let me recommend the Nutella blog. They have some really easy, really tasty recipes.
