Nutwood Cafe's Breakfast Menu

Good afternoon!

If you're at Cal State Fullerton in the morning, and you haven't eaten breakfast, go to The Nutwood Cafe. It's across the street from the main campus at the College Park building. They have a great selection on their breakfast menu from breakfast burritos to omelettes to french toast. Combos cost around 5 dollars and a la carte is 3 dollars.

Here's Tricia's breakfast burrito a la carte with eggs, tomato, and cheese $3.95



This is Amanda's Denver Omelette combo. The omelette had bell peppers, ham, red onions, and chedder cheese with the side of 3 sausage links and toast $5.89


Finally, this is the Vegetarian Omelette combo. The omelette was filled with broccoli, red onions, tomato, red and green bell peppers, and Chedder cheese, with the side of toast and orange slices on the side $5.69



Big portions, cheap price; I think you should go there.

McClain's coffeehouse Bagels

McClain's is a quaint coffeehouse in Fullerton off of Harbor and Berkley that used to be a small house near downtown that turned into a popular cafe for fellow Fullertonians. If you have to do late night studying or you want to grab coffee with a friend, McClain's is the place to go.


But I am not going to be talking about their coffees tonight. Tonight, it's all about their bagels. Bagels are pretty simple: bagel, creme cheese, and/or jelly. You can pretty much put anything on top of them! But try this: Parmesan bagel, Philadelphia cream cheese spread on top, topped off with tomato, red onions, and cucumbers. OHH HOLY MOLEY. It was so good. Adding the veggies certainly put some twist to the bagel. You get crunch from the cucumbers and the onions. The tomatoes make it fresh. AHHH So much flavor on top of a bagel. YUM.

The bagel with cream cheese was $2.50, and adding anything else like veggies cost .50 cents more. In total the bagel was $5.00. Seems a little much, but the bagels are huge, and they smother on a good amount of cheese and veggies. TRY IT.

Afternoon snack

Hello! I went to my harp gathering this afternoon, and during our break, my harp teacher brought out cheese and crackers. If you know me, you know my love for cheese is indescribable, so you can only imagine how excited I was to eat! She brought out two kinds: Camembert and Blarney Castle.

Camembert:

A very soft, gooey cheese that only gets creamier over time. It dates back to the 18th century and one of France's famous cheeses. Camembert the name of a village in France where this cheese was introduced to Napoleon. Napoleon enjoyed it so much and soon Camembert became famous for this cheese.

Blarney Castle:

A semi-hard cheese made in the fields of Ireland. It's natural and does not use any artificial additives or flavor. Its taste is not overpowering; it is similar to Gouda cheese. This is a perfect cheese you can use in sandwiches or crumble on top of salads. Maybe you can try putting in your macaroni and cheese!

Both cheeses pair perfectly with fresh fruit ,like grape, and red wine! I wish I could have tried it with the wine. Too bad I'm still underage!!!

The Fish Hopper's Seafood Rissoto

This past summer, my friends and I took a relaxing trip to Santa Cruz. Oh my oh my we tasted some of the best food. There were plenty of local cafes and restaurants within the city, and we were lucky enough to visit a few. About an hour south of Santa Cruz is Monterey Bay. We ate dinner at The Fish Hopper, a seafood restaurant located at Historic Cannery Row with a gorgeous view of the Pacific Ocean.


Onto the good stuff! Look at this puppy; this is the Seafood Rissoto. On top of the creamy rissoto were shrimp stuffed crab cakes, grilled scallops, and asparagus. each ingredient complimented each other, and putting a little bit of everything in one bite just made sense. The rissoto was $30, but I think it was definitely worth the price. They give you a big serving, so it's very filling. Trust me; you'll never get disappointed ordering this dish.

Nutella and Banana Sanwich

Good morning, everyone!

This morning, I made myself a Nutella and banana sandwich. It's exactly what it's called: nutella and banana on bread. It's nothing new, but I can't help but tell you how delicious it tastes! (Thanks, Kyla!) Forget about PB & J (for a while) and try out a N & B sandwich! It's definitely a to-go sandwich that is very simple to make!

Ingredients:
Nutella (be generous :D )
Banana
1 or 2 slices of bread

Directions:
Assemble together, and EAT!

Cheap Wings

Do you want something delicious and affordable? If you're around the Fullerton area, you should visit Cantina Lounge. Every Wednesday, Cantina Lounge serves 25 cent buffalo wings! My friends invited me to eat with them, and I had to agree that the buffalo wings were pretty good. In addition to your cheap wings, it's standard to get free chips and salsa.

Basically, you can get 12 wings for 3 dollars. You're required to buy a drink which is around 2 to 3 dollars, but that's only 7 dollars including tax, with chips and salsa! Not bad, not bad at all.

Visit Cantina Lounge, and check out their other specials. Maybe you'll find something you like!
