Sacramento, California

The capital of California is a gold mine of history—literally. Gold was first discovered in 1848, thirty miles east of Sacramento, making the early days rather lively as the town hosted miners who had hit it big. They were a boisterous bunch, spending their loot on gambling and dance halls. Today, Sacramento is still a hub of activity, shipping and processing fruits, vegetables, rice, wheat and dairy goods from Central Valley. It still maintains some of that old west vibe with its vintage buildings on the riverfront—home to over 100 restaurants. Fine restaurants can also be found sprinkling the rest of the city, offering American, Italian, Mexican, French and California cuisine.

Quick and Easy Pancit

Reviewed on Aug. 26, 2008 by Nani
First time making and eating pancit. I thought it sounded tasty and wanted to make it for my dad's birthday this weekend, but, wanted to try it out before. I have a Filipino co-worker and she said it was good and gave me some tips. Pretty good and easty to make. Most likely, I will make pancit this weekend. Thanks for the recipe!

Zucchini Bread VI

Reviewed on Aug. 25, 2008 by LUVJEZUZ
This is very good. I have never made zucchini bread before, and since I love lemon, I decided to give this a try. Loved it! The lemon flavor could have been even stronger for my taste, but otherwise this was excellent.
