Places to Eat in Haines, Alaska ↠ Mountain Market Cafe.

Mountain Market Cafe was the first place we ate when we drove through Haines on our way to Juneau, and we knew we had to come back on this trip. It's the perfect stop for a road trip...great coffee, light/delicious lunches, and a few sweet treats. What more could you need? Oh ya, there's wifi. I don't even have service in the rest of Haines, but I can catch up on some instagram posts before driving through the Yukon where you can't use your phone at all. Perfect.

It's inside a little market (obviously), so you can also grab a few granola bars or anything else you might need for the rest of your trip if you're making a drive. All the wraps we've tried have been yummy and I highly recommend grabbing a pumpkin cookie when they're in season. ;)

Places to Eat in Juneau, Alaska ↠ Twin Lake Cafe.

Dave and I made friends with a man that works at Fred Meyers here in Juneau, he invited us awhile back to come visit his restaurant so he could cook for us. He's a sweet Korean man, and knew how much Dave loved his time in Korea and is always searching for wonderful Korean food here in the States. Little tip, there aren't many places you can find authentic Korean. Trust me.

We went about a month ago and were kicking ourselves for not going sooner! We both requested bibimbap on our first trip and it was the best I've ever had. On Friday, we went back, we'd seen Joon (the owner) at Fred Meyer the night before and he told us he was going to make something special for both of us.

We didn't realize it was Alaska Day and were so sad when we showed up and the building was closed (Twin Lakes is inside the VTRC building in Juneau). We were just about to leave when Joon came out and told us he was open for us, we felt so special! He made us a HUGE platter full of tempura vegetables and shrimp. SO GOOD! There was a huge salad in the middle and it was so delicious we had to ask for the dressing recipe. Luckily, as we were stuffing our faces, he let us know to not eat it all because he had more coming.

The main course was tofu steak with yummy mushrooms on top for me and veggies and bulgogi for Dave. The plates were overflowing with amazingness and of course I was stuffed after a few bites, but leftovers were just as good...
