Get Your Grub on at Wicked Cow Burgers & Brew in Upland

First, kudos to the name — Wicked Cow Burgers & Brew. Who wouldn’t be intrigued by just that? Wicked Cow. Burgers. Brew. Love it! Family-owned, this new Upland restaurant has only been open a few months. Even more interestingly, it’s owned by a family without any prior restaurant ownership, and let me just say this: you would never know. Stellar experience all the way around!

The restaurant’s location is fantastic, just east of Euclid on the north side of Foothill. Near the hospital and medical buildings, it’s a cute building with a bit of a retro look. Large and surrounded by parking, you can’t miss it.

Inside, you’ll find a fun theme of music lyrics on the walls, tables all the way around this central bar.

Known for its burgers and brews, Wicked Cow has a large menu of unique entrees, sides, desserts and cocktails. The daily recommendations are on each table and the choices are so varied, it’s really difficult choosing!

Yet, this group of bloggers managed…by ordering a little bit of everything…and of course, taking pictures of it all.

I started with these pork bellied deviled eggs, called Devil’s Belly. Aptly named, they were delicious. I could eat just a couple of plates of these and a brew.

Next up? Mac and trees, which is exactly what it looks like. Creamy, rich and perfectly al dente…

I tried a Grapefruit DIPA with 8.5% alcohol….it was yum.

That’s the husband’s burger, a Widow Maker with jalapeno, peppered bacon, pepper jack cheese, chipotle sauce and an egg. Doesn’t it look good? And those parmesan garlic fries…I stole a few. All the burgers are certified angus beef and definitely a cut above the norm.

And he stole a couple of my onion rings..or maybe I didn’t let him, these were good! A lot of onion rings are too coated or lacking in flavor, but these were seasoned, not oily at all and had a great crunch. They paired well with my Big Belly Grilled cheese, which had pork belly, cheddar, swiss and pepper jack cheese on that grilled bread, also coated in cheese. Cheese heaven!

This Cow Pacino is a really unique ‘burger’ that’s not a burger — a breaded chicken breast on a garlic bun covered with house marinara and provolone, it went with more of the Wicked Tots.

Don’t go to Wicked Cow unless you’re really hungry, because you can’t leave without trying dessert. I may or may not have claimed this entire Raspberry Jalapeno Creme Brulee as my own…well, I shared a little with the husband but not much. With a good crack on the top, the inside is perfectly custard-y and the raspberry flavor pops. Then you want to eat that candied jalapeno at the end, yum. With a good spark of heat, save it for the end!

I’m sorry but I don’t have the full name of this heavenly dessert below. The sticks had chocolate and coffee and were as rich as could be. One serving will work for two of you, and it’s OH so good.

Apple Crisp and Elvis Bread pudding rounded out the dessert options. What an array!

Moet-Chandon champagne at the top of the Eiffel To Moet-Chandon champagne at the top of the Eiffel Tower? Sign me up. Our anniversary trip to Paris, France, was at the top of my bucket list and it was everything I hoped for. We did so many things, but our visit to the top of the Eiffel Tower was a highlight. 

A few things to know before you go:

There are three “stories” to the tower. All are accessible via stairs/elevator, but you have to purchase a ticket to see any. Your ticket is specific to which floors you plan to visit, so purchase carefully. Your ticket is required at each level to ascend higher.

Buy your ticket in advance. They do sell out, and lines can be long for standby. When we went, the standby line was around 70 minutes. 

It gets cold. The summit, which is the ‘top,’ is very windy. Secure your hat. In March, I wore a puffy coat and a scarf. I was still cold and wished I’d had gloves. 

At the summit, there is a champagne booth. You can purchase Moet-Chandon (in plastic flutes you can keep) to cheers the city. Also available are macarons and caviar. If they are out of macarons, you can also get them on the second story. They are good!

Unless you are in tip-top shape and/or you really feel brave, take the elevator up. Save your energy for the view or for taking the stairs down, which is what we did. The elevators coming down can be delayed, so if you’re in a rush, descending via the stairs may just be faster or at least break even.

There are two restaurants and a bar. Both restaurants require reservations. The Jules Verne is very high-end and books up months in advance. (We were not able to get a reservation despite trying quite a while ago.) 

Security is very, well, secure. You and your items will go through searches similar to the airport. They have a bin next to the entry full of things they took — SO many butter knives, and I still have no idea why someone would have one on their person?

It’s beautiful, so take your time. It’s incredible. Do it.

Disneyland Paris is celebrating its 30th anniversa Disneyland Paris is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, and walking through the gates for our first visit was amazing. Also amazing: the Phantom Mansion. It has a lot of similarities to our Haunted Mansion here in California, but with a scarier spin. And for those who frequent the HM here in Anaheim, you know how often it stops mid-ride. This one didn’t stop once! It also creeped me out, and I LOVED it. The outside has shades of the Bates Motel and doesn’t have the cute factor of Disneyland California. Newer and more cleanly laid out, this whole park is pretty amazing. More info coming here and on the blog soon. Still gathering photos and putting away/distributing souvenirs.

A day in the French countryside is the stuff dream A day in the French countryside is the stuff dream vacations are made of. We drove two hours to Chablis, with new friends from Austin (private tour groups are the best!) and visited several wineries. Full confession: we tapped out early. ALL of us. So much wine. I should be embarrassed by that…maybe…but I’m not. We had an amazing French cuisine me lunch mid-day, where we enjoyed more wine. I’ll share lunch photos later. 

You save and plan so much for international travel, you need to try and relax and enjoy it. Not always easy, especially if your tour guide is sleepy or there are protests blocking the airport entry the day before you leave, but this pic kind of exemplifies our adventure. Go as far as you can. Do things you love. Be silly. And appreciate your partner’s goofy photo poses. 😆 Most of all, have fun. And drink wine.

That time, not long ago, that I spent my birthday That time, not long ago, that I spent my birthday feeding the giraffes. Bucket list ✅

Do the things you dream of. Wear the silly ears. Giggle like a kid. 

Life is way too short. There are only so many days to do all those things you’ve wanted to do. Make those memories. 

And feed the giraffes. This event is a private add-on when you visit the park. Reservations are required in advance. Worth every single penny….and I can’t wait to do it again.

Shuri was out on a walk with Dad, but for Lady Sif Shuri was out on a walk with Dad, but for Lady Sif, patience is a work in progress. This is how our goofy but lovable big girl waited for her turn.

And yes, kids grow up so we dote on the pups now. Why not? Lots of rescues available out there waiting for forever homes!

The recipe for that deliciousness is below! After The recipe for that deliciousness is below! After an overindulgent holiday season…and a whole lot of excuses…I’ve finally been working on adding more protein into my diet to drop a few pounds before we head to Paris next week. One of my favorite meals — or meal replacement, call it what you will — is a protein shake. They can be made in so many ways, all depending on what basics you have on hand. I try to keep mine simple, using whatever fruit I have in the drawer. Right now, thanks to Melissa’s Produce, I have Ojai Pixie tangerines to enjoy, so I decided to craft a super easy protein smoothie. I feel full, it gives me a protein boost and I only have to clean out the blender. Easy peasy.

Ojai Pixie Protein Smoothie

1 frozen banana
1/2 cup ice
1 scoop of protein powder
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
1 cup almond milk 
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 Ojai Pixies tangerines, peeled and sectioned

Blend in a powerful blender and serve with a fatty straw. If you don’t puree it, you’ll have some little chunks of citrus that will clog a regular straw, but for me, that makes it even better. 

Thick, cold, chunky, tangy citrus perfection. Grab some Ojai Pixie Tangerines soon! They’re only available through early June!
