Fast Food Go-To
For the most part, I’m a slow-food girl. I like braises, gumbos, stews and chili. The longer something cooks, the better. And my freezer is a testament to that, stocked with small storage containers from big pots of things that have leisurely simmered on my stove. But every week, I grab a quick bite from the neighborhood that someone else has cooked. My favorite is a Lebanese rotisserie chicken place nearby. Do you have a fast food go-to?

I like to go to a family owned pizza shop with a variety of comfort food
Pizza never gets boring. I’m all in for comfort food.
There is a great Greek diner that one of my friends owns. I am Greek so it’s nice, I feel like I am dining with my family, and bonus they serve breakfast all day.
I wish there was a Greek diner in my neighborhood. What’s your favorite thing to eat there?
Wendy, my go to meal is the chicken Souvlaki dinner, with mini Greek salad and French fries, and sliced pita bread, and wonderful tsaziki sauce.
My mouth is watering….
Chipotle is definitely my fast food go-to on weeknights when I’m too busy to cook or shop for groceries.
I have a Chipotle near by, which I go to occasionally. I like their barbacoa.
I have a Chipotle right by my apartment and it’s great for this. They have a good tofu based meat substitute and if I leave off the cheese and sour cream I have a filling and relatively healthy meal.
I also skip the cheese and sourcream, but always add avocado to my Chipotle meal.
I am the opposite. I used to really enjoy cooking. But now it’s gotten to be a chore. Maybe it’s my small apartment kitchen and much busier work schedule. In fact I’ve been looking for a way to get a weekly delivery/pickup of 5 or 6 healthy meals ready to heat up so I don’t eat cereal or take out after work when I’m tired or get hangry at my desk when super busy. Haven’t had any luck yet finding someone who does this (doesn’t help I’m in the south and am vegetarian but prefer to eat vegan – I bet I would have no trouble in LA!!). Even Whole Foods was useless. 🙁
