Dillon Ate . . . Sockeye Salmon and Pasta

Salmon that Socks you in the Eye

Wow, that was pretty much the corniest title ever. Right. Sooo . . . next to Alaska’s, “King Salmon,” Sockeye is the second most sought after species of Salmon in Alaska. It is super rich and flavorful, and chock full of Omega-3′s. Peep the darker color than farm-raised salmon . . . this is scrumptious. Shouts to Chef Eric King over at Murphy‘s (He came from the Ritz Carlton, Atlanta) for giving me some tips on preparing this.

Ha - Peep how the salmon is nice and crispy!

Still Back in the Game Like Jack LaLanne . . .

Nothing beats raw fruits and vegetables – my only regret is I recently read it’s no good to eat fruits and veggies together, because fruits digest way quicker and it could upset your stomach . . . anybody got any thoughts on this? Oh yah – Dillon got the juice now!!

Dillon Drank . . . that Nikken “PiMag” Water

Mad Water.

Last year, when I was going to the chiropractor, she put me on to the fabulous Nikken “Aqua Pour” Gravity water system – WOW. It was a grip (I was able to get the hook up so I jumped on it) – but totally worth it. The water is pristine – it takes 5 hours to filter a gallon!! It goes through ceramic, then carbon, and then this whole chamber of filters, then it is filtered over Japanese mineral rocks, and pours out through a magnetic spout, which makes the water errr . . magnetically correct (?) – there’s a science behind it . Highly suggested – and it’ll save you in the long run if you buy bottled water – reduce consumption, suckas!

80 ounces a day!  - of Water that is!

Dillon Ate . . . Day Old Bread in Berlin with Batsauce & Lady Da*sey

Broke in Berlin # 20

As you already know – Lady Da*sey and Batsauce make fabulous music together – like records. Anywho, while in Berlin, my sister and I had the pleasure of attending a Lady Da*sey show at “Cassiopeia” – a really dope venue a few miles walk from the cribbo. Bat and Daze unveiled one of their newest joints, “Day Old Bread.” Dope concept, dope song, and what a great way to perform it. Delicioso – though I could have used a little “Day Old Olive Oil” – heads up, Daze . . .

Dillon Ate . . . Baguettes with Batsauce

Broke in Berlin # 19

Dillon and Batsauce are – The Baguette Bros. Yes it is kinda corny that we took mad flicks eating sandwiches. Yes the sandwiches were that good. 1.50 Euro = a pretty damn decent deal.

Dillon and Batsauce are The Baguette Brothers.  Dummies.

Dillon Ate . . . Gelato in Berlin (?!)

Broke in Berlin # 17

It’s a good thing that Berlin was starting to warm-up, because after that extremely sub-par “Veggie Burger” – I needed something to make feel good about great food again. So I peeped this gelato spot across the street (it turned into a coffeeshop next-door during the winter) – looked pretty slamming. I had a scoop of pineapple and mango. BONG! BANG! BING!  . . . and it was cheap too!

Dillon Ate . . . at Yellow Sunshine Vegatarisch in Berlin

Broke in Berlin # 16

So I’m a sucker for a good vegtarian restaurant, as I am . . . well, vegetarian. So apparently one of the dope spots in Berlin to eat at is “Yellow Sunshine.” Local musicians (Thanks, Danah) big this up as “Vegetarian fast food.” Well anyway, it was ok – but I’m not into the veggie burger patties that are like some rubber soy ish – I’m more into actual veggies, lentils, black beans, etc. The fries were good though. But fried food ain’t the lick ya’ll. I was kinda unimpressed . . .
