Davis is a fantastic town for beer fans!
Little Prague had the same pilsner we sampled on the streets of Stare Mesto (Old Town). My favorite meal in the Czech Republic: Cold pilsner with hot sausage in a bun, standing next to a food truck. I remember brushing away snowflakes from my face.
In Davis, Little Prague had a great selection of Czech beer and absinthe cocktails, like this Prince Julep. I was also addicted to the devil’s toast: Czech bread covered with spicy ground beef, pork and cheese.
Another place to fuel up on beer in Davis: Burgers and Brew. Unlike it’s Sacramento counterpart, the Davis location had a wonderful patio and it has a bigger selection of beer.
My hubby was impressed with the Belgium beers on the menu. The kitchen knew how to serve up burgers, medium-rare and plenty of flavor. This is the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger.
In My Belly for 2010
This time last year, I got a Fortunate You necklace from Tea Stain clothing in Sacramento. The fortune said: “You will step on the soil of many countries.”
A combination of wanderlust, luck and professional opportunity made that fortune come true in 2010.
I sampled fresh fish and explored new flavors in Russia as a guest lecturer for St. Petersburg State University.
We celebrated my birthday with ceviche on the beach in Ensenada.
Finally, I left my Sacramento newsroom behind and became the Newark Patch editor. In this Alameda County city, I cover news, politics, crime and other issues that matter to Newark residents. Plus, I have a chance to profile all the amazing food spots in Newark.
You can find rest of my album, “In My Tummy: 2010,†on Flickr.
What do you think? What should I try next?
Where Aggies Eat
Our home away from home: Davis. When we want good food, tasty drinks and a refreshing atmosphere, we got to this college town.
A few weekends ago, we enjoyed happy hour beer and hummus at the Delta of Venus.
I also enjoyed all the fresh fish at Mikuni’s in Davis. This is part of a big chain with other locations in Sacramento and Lake Tahoe.
The lunch specials on sushi rolls are huge!
