Being remarkable: the five hour drive test

08.27.10 | 5 Comments


A few years ago I drove 5 hours from Vancouver to Portland with my buddies Abdulla and Fred…

…to eat these 5 cheeseballs at Salvador Molly’s.

I hear you ask…. WHY?

Because they’re habanero cheese balls. And they’re called Great Balls Of Fire. And they’re insanely spicy. And if you finish all 5, including the habanero sauce, they’ll put your picture on the wall.

That’s remarkable enough for me to sit in a car for 5 hours.

What’s the remarkable thing your business or destination has that’s worth driving 5 hours for?

    My remarkable destination was Antwerp Vogeltjes Market about 15 years ago. After a night out in Amsterdam we decided to go to Antwerp! So at 4 am we drove there :no sleep and still a little toxicated by boozzz! In Antwerp we asked the first person we saw : Where is the Vogeltjes Market ?? He replied that’s just around the corner but allez your a day early!

    We had a laugh and drove back for another 2 and a half hours.

    We were in antwerp for 10 Minutes!
