Apple Matcha Latte.🍎🍵 A cozy fall twist on the cla Apple Matcha Latte.🍎🍵 A cozy fall twist on the classic matcha drink. Creamy oat milk, homemade spiced apple syrup & smooth earthy matcha. I didn’t expect to love this combo as much as I do, but it totally works! If you’re a matcha lover, you have to give this one a try.

Apple Syrup. We went apple picking w/ my parents w Apple Syrup. We went apple picking w/ my parents while they were in town, and drinking fresh apple cider inspired me to make this syrup. It’s sweet, a little tart, mildly spiced, & bursting with concentrated apple flavor. Perfect for coffee, tea, cocktails, or mocktails! Even just w/ sparkling water for a crisp, refreshing apple soda. So simple, yet so good! 🍎

Fall is here! 🍂 I’m hoping to go apple picking soo Fall is here! 🍂 I’m hoping to go apple picking soon, but before that, let’s bake this Fresh Apple Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting. It’s moist, perfectly sweet (but not too much!), & packed w/ fresh apples. Honestly, it doesn’t get more fall than this rustic, cozy dessert! 

Btw, still obsessed with KPop Demon Hunters! It was so touching seeing the interview & performance of Huntr/x on Jimmy Fallon.💜

Creamy Roasted Pumpkin Soup. It may still be 80˚F Creamy Roasted Pumpkin Soup. It may still be 80˚F (29˚C), but I’m already leaning into fall vibes. This soup starts with roasted kabocha squash & thyme, blended w/ onion, garlic, & chicken broth until silky smooth. Topped w/ crispy pancetta, a drizzle of cream, & fresh thyme. It’s layered w/ sweetness, umami, & creaminess. I’ve loved every sip, and I know I’ll be making it again (and again!) once the weather finally cools down. 🎃🍂

Next-level beef bowl!🥩🍚 Red Rock is now opened at Next-level beef bowl!🥩🍚 Red Rock is now opened at The Shops at Santa Anita. It’s a cozy spot w/ only about 14 bar seats, but we’re thrilled they’re now on this side of town. This Japanese restaurant first opened in Torrance in 2017, & we’ve made the trek there a few times. Now? Way more convenient! 

Their claim to fame is the sliced beef don. A rice bowl piled high with tender roasted beef, drizzled w/ sweet soy sauce & creamy yogurt sauce, then crowned with a rich raw egg yolk. In my opinion, the yolk is non-negotiable. It adds extra flavors.

While you’re there, don’t skip the croquette. Perfectly crispy on the outside, with a creamy, savory mashed potato center. Absolute comfort food.

Next time, I’m determined to try their omurice or curry… if I can resist ordering that beef bowl again.😅
