FOOD: EDITION 6
Mug Desserts
Pauline Na
Picture this: it’s a Friday night, you’re sitting at home watching a movie, when all of a sudden, you get a ravenous craving for something sweet. You’re too lazy to bake—what to eat, what to eat? Ice cream? Too cold. Candy? Too mainstream. Maybe a healthy fruit salad? Just stop right there. Microwavable dessert in a mug or jar? Perfect.
Tacolicious
Armete Mobin
Are you getting tired of same old Palo Alto? For all you urbanites out there, have no fear, Tacolicious is here. Located at 632 Emerson in Palo Alto, this Mexican restaurant is any hipsters dream. With its bright blue walls and neon orange pillars, Tacolicious screams contemporary. The geometric interior rivals its cuisine.
Steam
Maggie Zheng
With it’s angular and modern-chic appearance, Steam offers a different approach to the usual coziness and somewhat shabbiness of Chinese cooking. This newly opened restaurant is the epitome of an “Asian” restaurant that is actually catered to American taste buds. For those who aren’t too keen on the authentic oriental cuisine but are interested in this genre, this restaurant is totally for you.
