I cannot believe it’s been a week since my last post, things have been so hectic with school and my internship that I lost track of time! I’m finally back in Chicago, but I have a few more things to share from my visit to Omaha last week; one being my first trip to Chick-fil-A!
Now I know what many of you are thinking, what’s the big deal about Chick-fil-A? And the answer is, nothing. But, in Omaha there is only one Chick-fil-A in the whole city. It’s hidden in the food court of the Mutual of Omaha building which can only be accessed by people who work there. So having the opportunity to go there is a real treat!
I went with one of the healthier items on the menu and got the Chargrilled Chicken Garden Salad with some fat-free Honey Mustard dressing. It was pretty much your basic fast-food restaurant salad.
The salad wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, but I did try one of my sister’s waffle fries which were pretty tasty! Do you have a Chick-fil-A where you live? We don’t have any in Chicago, but I think I’ll be able to live without it!

Narwhal Salad
00At a dinner party over the weekend, this salad was served. It was to die for and I just HAD to get the recipe to share with everyone! The name of the salad came about in a fun way; since the cook had no official name for the salad she took the first letter of the names of everyone at the table and tried to make a word with the letters. Strangley enough, “Narwhal” was the end result....

Amsterdam Falafel and Kabob
00For lunch today I went to Amsterdam, a small falafel and kabob Mediterranean restaurant in the heart of Dundee. This small eatery (about the size of a small studio apartment) was started by 3 friends who felt Omaha needed a fresh, healthy, local, late-night fast food option. Amsterdam’s limited but delicious menu consists of a falafel sandwich or a donor kabob sandwich, both of which can be...
