What are some things you've been recently put onto in the last 3-5 years that you regret not checking out sooner? It can be food, places, music, activities, whatever. Don't be embarrassed, we ain't judging in here and it's better late than never. I'm trying to discover some new stuff. I'll start:
- Whole fish - The heads used to freak me out, but searing/baking fish whole makes it taste WAY better. And if cooked right, you can remove all the bones in one piece
- MVNOs - Always thought they were for broke people for some reason, but they actually make a lot of sense financially if you don't upgrade your phone often. Switching to Mint mobile has been pretty good so far.
- Global Entry - Mainly got it for the precheck, but its also nice to avoid the long customs lines when entering the country. I'll always renew this.
- Botanical/Japanese Gardens - Really relaxing and serene. Like a zoo but with all plants and no loud kids running around.
- Goat and Oxtail meat - I'm kinda embarrassed how long it took. Goat curry, goat biryani, oxtail pho, oxtail stew...all so good. Oxtail cost too damn much though.
- Hawaiian Food - Poke, Hawaiian BBQ, musubi, loco moco, malasadas...slept on it for way too long.
- Hawaii in general - undisputed GOAT state
- College Baseball - Not as popular as NCAA basketball and football, so you can get great seats for almost nothing. A more fun experience live than MLB baseball.
