#89 DZP: Eat at a restaurant that was featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives"
Now this was as random as they come.
Story: Our good friends Vince & Shanna were going on a trip to Arizona.
I made cake pops for them, and for their trip.
Thought it would be a tasty treat for the drive out there.

Next thing I know Bebe, Petite Bebe, and I were in Chandler, Arizona... at Chino Bandinos.

When Shanna came to pick up the cake pops, she mentioned why they were all going to Arizona: to go to a restaurant: Chino Bandinos. It's a delightful mix of Mexican & Chinese food. It was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, that's what sparked the inspiration to go and visit Arizona. And the unlimited combinations are endless.... ok, maybe not endless, but you get the idea.
I unfortunately did NOT take any pictures of my awesome combination, but I had a carnitas quesadilla with jade red chicken, jerk fried rice, and cuban black beans. Let me tell you: jerk fried rice and jade red chicken... that was my favorite! *drool*
Fun times were had and it was a great FIRST family road trip!
(Special thanks to our wonderful friends who let us come with them on their family adventure!)
Here's apart of the DDD video I found on YouTube in case you were interested:
Disposable Pillowcases: Save yourself the who-knows-where-this-has-been? anxiety by slipping a single-use case over that dubious airplane pillow.
Bandage Kit: Be prepared for the occasional boo-boo. Help Remedies’ slim, pocket-sized case includes six small and six large hospital-grade hydrocolloid bandages that can be worn for days at a time. They also have other "Help Me" kits too!
Antibacterial Paper-Soap: Flight 001’s thin sheets, which suds up on contact with water, will be extremely welcome the inevitable moment when you discover the public loo is out of hand soap.
Mini Speakers: Pop the pint-sized Tweakers Mini Boom speakers into your carry-on and blast tunes anywhere laptops, iPhones, or iPods can go. Done rocking out? Just unplug them and retract the cables. Available in black or red (shown).
Spa Slides: Whether staying with friends or holed up in a hotel, a good pair of comfy slippers is a necessity—who wants to scurry barefoot across cold tile floors? Simply toss them in the wash if they get grimy. In pink, sage green, blue, and white (shown).
Transit Maps of the World: Whether you’re riding the Tube, the T, or the Metro, you’ll have a hard time getting lost, thanks to the research, graphs, and photos within this helpful compendium.
Sleep Mask: What to do when it’s sunny and 8 a.m. upon arrival but your internal clock has just struck midnight? Glide a pretty silk-lined mask over tired eyes to catch up on ZZZ’s.
