Streetcar Merchants of Fried Chicken, Doughnuts & Coffee

Have you ever felt so blase about a post that you kind of put it off and keep putting it off until you kind of don't care anymore?

That's how I felt about this post...

Nomad Donuts once again plus the Bookstore cats...

We weren't sure where we were going to have lunch this day. I just knew I wanted to go here first...

With our trusty cooler, TC and I made our selections...

Tan Hoang Huong (THH)

Right next door to the Kolache Factory is Tan Hoang Huong (aka THH)...

which is obviously a Vietnamese eatery with a couple of other outposts in the OC...

Kolache Factory

There was a nearby bakery in Tustin that we hadn't tried out yet...

It's in this stripmall a few lights from the Newport Ave exit...

Another Cream Pan Visit - Feb 2015

Whenever we do a road trip, we usually go to Cream Pan, but before doing so...

Bert usually gets his coffee at this tiny strip mall off of Red Hill Drive in Tustin...

Return to Heartwork Coffee Bar

We kind of did this backwards by having our coffee after breakfast, which was pretty good over at The Patio on Goldfinch, down the street...

I thought Bert would like to try the coffee over at Heartworm, I mean Heartwork...

The Tustin Hangars at the Marine Corps Air Station

Earlier I mentioned passing by these two behemoth structures while on our way to the District shopping center in Tustin...

These were not hard to miss as they are easily the largest things on the landscape as you drive by...

It's Boba Time

Our one last stop in this upscale and sterile mall of conformity was It's Boba Time...

The name is self-explanatory...

Thai Bamboo Bistro

Before parking earlier, we noticed the sign for this Thai place, Thai Bamboo Bistro...

We thought we would try a few things here before making our drive back to San Diego...

Breakfast at The Patio on Goldfinch

This weekend, our morning date was here...

The Patio on Goldfinch which took over the spot that never was (Papa Nanou, a Philippe Beltran venture that fizzled)...

Portola Coffee Lab

We were bummed that the place we wanted to go for Vietnamese coffee was closed. In fact, we just missed it by five $%#@ minutes.  The meat pie place next door was also closed...

So plan B was put into action, which was to go to this hoity toity/upscale shopping slash lifestyle center called the District in south Tustin...
