Eating it Episode 52 - That's How My Mommy Makes It

This week is a special episode because not only do we have a guest, but it is David's sister and long time listener, EMILY TOBEY! (YEAH!) This week we talk to David and Emily about the great places they ate while on David's comedy run in the Northwest. First it was Aunt Becky's Deli in SeaTac, WA where Emily found out that not everybody serves egg salad hot. Then they DROVE PAST Voodoo Doughnuts and didn't have any. (FOR SHAME!) Next it was Sweetwaters On The River in Eugene, OR where David dined in elegance and Emily dined like it was Chuck E Cheese's. They enjoyed a fabulous breakfast at Studio 1 Cafe also in Eugene where the pancakes were thick and the Huevos were runny. David then took Emily to an old favorite, Jasper's Cafe in Medford, OR. There, David tried the Elk Burger and Emily tried the Black Bean burger. They stopped at Richard's Donuts in Medford which has a creepy website. And Finally they ended their food & comedy trek at Kaleidoscope Pizzeria and Pub where we learned that if you get the Cheese Sticks for an appetizer, they might just be enough to feed an army. There is some slight sound issues but worth it for the laughs. Don't miss our discussion on the pronunciation of Jalapeño. This is a lot of fun. Enjoy!
