Eating Out: Mac and Cheese at Stanford's

Mac and Cheese is my weakness.  Blame it on the blue boxes my mom would make me.  Then after I learned that mac and cheese doesn't always come out of a box, I made it my quest in life to find the best bowl ever.

This here is a top contender.  You can find this bowl of a continuous foodgasm at Stanford's in Walnut Creek.  The 3 cheese blend of cheddar, fontina, and swiss go so well with the bacon.  I can imagine that this stuff would taste equally delicious without the bacon, but hey, let me get mines one time!

I like to go during Happy Hour, from 3-6 everyday and ALL DAY SUNDAY, because this bowl costs only $3.95!  WTF!  How could this big bowl of mac please me sensually and not break my bank?  As long as you don't go on a shopping spree in the Broadway Plaza, this dish is a cheap date secret right here....you can thank me later.

I also ordered the Ribs and Ring, which is basically a few fall-of-the-bone BBQ ribs paired with one big-ass onion ring.  So good, but I would never let that steal the shine from my favorite mac and cheese.
