“my ultimate comfort food is kibbeh nayyeh. … it’s all ground together and looks like a beautiful meatloaf before you put it in the oven, except we don’t put it in the oven. We eat it raw. it’s a delicacy of lebanon and i am lebanese, so that is my comfort food.”
“my comfort food is really about how i feel. … i love southern food like fried chicken and macaroni. in Asia, i used to have chicken in a pot. … it’s just whatever makes me feel warm and cozy at the time.”
“there’s so many, but it’d have to be bangers and mash. it’s just warm and very satisfying. [i grew up] eating a lot of bangers and mash, but i don’t eat it like i should, because i’ve been in this country for too long.”
“my ultimate comfort food is lamb stew and chicken curry. there [are] lots of flavors and they’re very unique because it’s my own style.”
“my ultimate comfort food is spicy poke and steamed rice. ... it just reminds me of family times i had back in oahu, and it reminds me of being tired after getting out of the ocean.”

Delish Deal$ W
e’re all about good food over here, but we aren’t fans of hefty price tags. This fall, we decided to challenge ourselves to find the best meal deals — some of the places we discovered might surprise you. And no, we weren’t just looking for the cheapest dish — we wanted the whole meal, the more inclusive, the better. There are some hidden gems, some no–brainers and some places you wouldn’t have even thought to eat at.
$6.99 Fried Chicken & Lumpia Plate
$7 Original Freebird Burrito
Savory Fried ChiCken
FreebirdS world burrito
Don’t be fooled by the name, Savory Fried Chicken isn’t your run of the mill fried chicken joint. The Elk Grove eatery brings a new twist to the fried chicken, cooking it Filipino style. Savory serves its chicken fried or grilled — both of which are delicious. You can get a fried chicken plate with a half of a chicken, seriously, four fried lumpia and a pile of steamed rice. If the perfectly seasoned, moist chicken doesn’t get you, the light and airy lumpia will. Don’t blame us for the addiction.
The next time you hear “Freebird” and you’re not at a concert, it should cause you to uncontrollably salivate thinking of the most delicious burrito your imagination can muster. Freebirds just so happens to offer such a burrito and everything is made in house with fresh ingredients every day — including all of their sauces, salsas, queso, guacamole and dressings. And if variety is what you crave, Freebirds has enough choices and combinations to make your head spin. For newbies, start out with the Original Freebird Burrito. It’s a monster and costs only $7.
Savory Fried Chicken, 9174 Franklin Blvd, Elk Grove, CA, (916) 395–3905
$5 Top Shelf Cocktail Or House Wine ink eatS & drinkS Looking for a relaxed place to sit back and enjoy a few drinks after work? Look no further than Ink Eats & Drinks. You won’t detect even the tiniest bit of ostentation as you walk into the decidedly laid–back atmosphere and kick back after a long, hard day of working for the man. Featuring a $5 top shelf cocktail board and $5 house wine, happy hour — Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. – 7 p.m. — is sure to help you forget all those reports that need stapling. Oh, and for under $10, you can get a draft beer and hot wings or an order of sliders! Ink Eats & Drinks, 2730 N St., Sacramento, CA 95816, (916) 456–2800
Freebirds World Burrito, 2281 Del Paso Rd., Ste. 100, Sacramento, CA 95834, (916) 928–0700
$7.45 Extra–Large Pho Pho king ii Whether you pronounce it “foe” or “fuh,” Pho King II has a great deal with an extra large bowl of pho for just $7.45. And if you want to just try some Vietnamese food, Pho King II offers several different options. Our suggestion is to try the bun bo hue, mi quang or bun rieu. But you could also order spring rolls, vermicelli and even a raw beef salad. As far as Vietnamese food goes, it’s one of the best Pho King restaurants in the Sacramento area, so check it out! Pho King II, 6830 Stockton Blvd., Ste. 180, Sacramento, CA 95823, (916) 395–9244

I
’m sitting in an intimate room atop velvet cushions, intoxicated by fragrant scents of turmeric, saffron and cardamom. Belly dancers swirl around me as i indulge in exotic delicacies. no, i’m not in north Africa — in fact, i’ve never left sacramento. restaurants like marrakech, Casablanca and Cafe morocco serve dishes “fit for a sultan.” the moroccan eateries replicate five–course feasts once reserved for royalty. my favorite, the bastilla, an airy nut and meat pie infused with cinnamon and honey, brings savory to a new level. don’t be afraid to embrace cultural customs. ditch the fork and eat with your hands. But don’t use your left hand … this is the hand used for personal hygiene. going to these restaurants isn’t just a chance to eat delicious food, but to explore a culture — from the dishes to the entertainment to the conversation with the staff, i feel as though i’m in another world.
