One of the most popular restaurants for tourists visiting Havana, Cuba, is El Floridita, whose claim to fame is that it was here, in the 1930s and at the urging of Ernest Hemingway, a barman invented the daiquiri. As I was trying to visit all the ‘must-see’ places, El …

I really love this restaurant. They had just opened their new branch in San Juan, Greenhills in Little Baguio and this was the best branch for me so far. The restaurant looks like an events place and the restaurant is actually a building which is high-ceilinged. There are huge …

This restaurant have several branches in Metro Manila and one in Cebu. I am often dine in at Malate branch at Robinson’s Midtown. There are some business venture that I do at the place that the nearest mall during lunch time is Robinson’s Manila.
I like the different vibe …

The Dixie Grill is a restaurant located in Live Oak Florida. It, like many restaurants in the south, advertises good southern cooking and hospitality. They are locally owned and operated and buy most of their produce from the local area.
Over all they are a god restaurant with decent …

This restaurant came highly recommended to us, but it didn’t live up to the hype. In fact, I’m not even sure how it has any hype at all since our experience was nothing but negative.
The restaurant is advertised as a Mediterranean restaurant that serves Greek and Italian specialties, but …

In my opinion, Quiznos has the best sandwiches out of all the hot and cold sandwich restaurants. I think I like them best because their sandwiches are heated or roasted. When a Quiznos restaurant first opened in my area, I tried the Classic Italian sandwich. It was very good. …

I have to admit that I am not big on the whole —˜fusion’ movement in haute cuisine that is so popular now in many upper-end restaurants. I understand the concept of fusing two or three styles of food into one dish, and I have experienced this first-hand while traveling …

A week ago, I decided to try out Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle with my friends. It’s supposedly authentic and has a store in Taiwan that some important Taiwanese politics guy went there and ate.
The first thing that caught my eye was the nice, soothing decor. It’s certainly a …

We visited The Blue Pearl for the first time with a little trepedition. Billed as a hip, happening kind of place, I did not want to feel like a fish out of water because I am not hip or happening! What a relief to discover that although the decorating …

When ever I am in Seoul I have to get away from it all. The city is mad if you know what I mean! I can’t afford to stay at the Grand Hyatt hotel but I can afford the buffet, which to my mind is the best I have …

My husband and I fell in love with this unique restaurant, and it’s delicious treats. The atmosphere and food are both wonderful. This is a classy upscale restaurant , and they treat their customers with outstanding service. The coolest thing about this restaurant is that the menu is constantly …

It seems that restaurants, like people, can grow old and tired. That happened two years ago to one of Center City Philadelphia’s seasoned standbys, the Academy Pizza shop at the corner of Hicks and Spruce Streets. My wife and I lived less than a block away from the …

Stuffy’s II Restaurant is a small 1960’s themed restaurant in southwest Washington state and is family owned. If you have a hearty appetite or just enjoy seeing how much you can eat before your belt gives out, this is a place to try. From their orders of …

“The Iskele, hidden away in the barbican is one of London’s best kept secrets.” This Mediterranean restaurant has everything to offer for a good night out. The food is excellent and the atmosphere will be hard to find in any other venue in London. In all aspects, the Iskele …

Since I’ve moved away from my mom, I noticed she has become something of a non-cook. When I was home she used to cook all the time, but I guess since I’m her only child and she realizes she doesn’t really have to cook as often as she …

Frankie and Benny’s is generally a reliably good - despite somewhat slow service - chain of restaurants, so naturally, I was keen to try out the newly opened restaurant in Coventry.
The first thing you notice is the ‘learn Italian’ CD playing through a speaker system into the car park …

Last night I ate at the Cracker Barrel in Springfield, Missouri. It was a pleasant meal, with good service. Cracker Barrel is one of the best places to get “down home cooked food”. Everything that they make at Cracker Barrel is made to order and it is all delicious. …

While in Dumfries, Scotland, recently, me and my family ate in The New Dragon Chinese Restaurant. We hadn’t booked ahead, but the restaurant had spare tables so it wasn’t a problem. It was a Friday night and not particularly busy, so you would probably be ok to walk in …

It you have never been to Kathy’s Place, you need to go. It is a small place way the heck out in the country. The building to begin with was a ranch house. Then they added on a 30 foot by 40 foot by 40 foot …

When it comes to Chinese Food, there were only two options in Beaver Dam, WI. You could choose the more expensive one at the Mall and have a limited selection but high quality. Or, you could go downtown and pay less for a buffet and not get as good …

Hot Dog on a Stick is probably one of my favorite childhood memories of growing up. I love getting a nice warm Hot Dog on a Stick at the mall. The service at this place lately has not been very good. Every time I go there the workers seem to …

Craving for fancy French cakes, my friend and I went to one place that definitely offered something as close as the true patisserie experience in the Philippines. Bizu Bistro is located in Greenbelt 2, the restaurant row along Esperanza Street in Makati City. It has a funky purple and …

Last month, four of us went to Tee’s Fireside Cafe for dinner, and we were quite perplexed in some ways by the experience. We expected a slightly more upscale kind of place, and weren’t sure what to make of it. It certainly did have a fireplace, but …

Who doe not love chicken strips? I realize that they are a bit of a child’s food, but I still have them regularly. Besides BBQ chicken is one of my favorite foods. It is healthy and easy to prepare.
There are few chicken places that I love more then …

The Ruby Tuesdays in New Freedom, PA is a fairly new restaurant in the area. I have visited the restaurant several times since its opening, and have not been entirely impressed. I will discuss my experiences throughout the next sections.
The atmosphere of Ruby Tuesdays is similar to any Ruby …

There is a fairly large Asian community in the City of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Restaurants serving Asian cuisines flourish too as the population of the community increases.
One restaurant I enjoy going to quite often is a Thai restaurant called Thai Place Restaurant in the northeast part of the …

My job is located in Eastwood City so I am lucky to be near and to try different restaurants in the place. Fazoli’s is an Italian inspired restaurant that serves food fast. And really fast, I mean it, just like other fast food chains. But there’s no hint that …

Been to the OutBack Steakhouse at South Austin near my apartment two days ago for a late time lunch. It is the corner shop lot facing the main road with a very big signboard “OUTBACK”.
The steakhouse looks really pleasant …

One of the great things about chain restaurants is that no matter where in the states you travel, you’ll be able to find a familiar restaurant to eat at. The Texas Roadhouse in Bangor, ME, is an unusual find among the more typical steak houses in the area, bringing …

My oldest daughter participated in a summer reading program with our local library this past summer. As part of that, she earned weekly rewards and one of those was a coupon for a free entrée off of the kids menu at Benvenuto’s Restaurant on Park Ave.
My wife and I …

While Datz was a nice place to browse for tasty confections after my meal, the time I spent there were wasted and I doubt if I will return. The entrance and lobby area is set up very poorly. While waiting for a table and then again while browsing waiting …

I wanted to try one of the other Chili’s restaurants in town and decided that I would go to the one that was located by the South Plains Mall, and what a mistake that was. A lot of the time when I go into a place I like to …

Living in NYC, we actually have a shocking lack of fondue choices. I’d only had it once before in a little place on 14th street, and I wasn’t all that impressed. I was told by my more experienced fondue loving friends that it was completely low quality and that …

I had high hopes for this place, to be honest. The menu posted in the glass case as if it were some sort of precious and unattainable jewel, was pretty well rounded and seemed promising.
The wait for my table was …

I went to Arby’s for the first time wanting to see what there food taste like. I was tired of the regular mcdonalds burgers so I wanted something new and different. I went there to eat and ordered a simple regular cheeseburger with light lettuce. I also got a …

In the past two weeks I have eaten at Cora in Saskatoon twice! I went there last week for my weekly luncheon with a friend. She had been there several times and kept raving about the food so I had to go.
Cora serves breakfast and …

I don’t want to be mean, but there are other options that are so much better than this place! The first thing that is a giveaway that this place was not great was the bread basket. The bread loaf was cold and so the pat’s of butter was just …

There are many restaurants around Beaver Dam Wisconsin. But, if you’re looking for an affordable place with great service, Larson’s family-owned restaurant on Spring Street is the place for you.
Larson’s always seems to insist on bringing the best service with friendly people bringing your food. And, the prices are …

I first went to the Melting Pot about five years ago, on a date. My first impression of the restaurant was that it was very unique. When I first went in, they had a bar, were people sat, and drank a glass of wine, and smoked cigars. It was …

If you need a little mood boosting then this is the place for you. The atmosphere and the ambiance are very lively and colorful. The food here is great and fresh; excellent south of the border food. I love that this is a restaurant that you will be proud …

I’m from the south, not deep south or anything but close enough to Memphis that I know what good BBQ tastes like. I think it’s in the blood after awhile, the cravings that come to you in the middle of the night and all you can do is think about …

Orleans Fresh Fish & BBQ is the newest restaurant here in Lansing and it is very near to our house. I can go there running or take a walk. Orleans Fresh Fish & BBQ opened a week before Memorial day. But, the place was there even …

Einstein Brother’s Bagel Restaurant is a favorite lunch place for my work friend and I. The two of us go at least once a week to Einstein’s to enjoy a hot vanilla latte because it helps us get through the work week.
I have never been …

Good Lord, the bliss inducing drinks are just the beginning. Discreetly located on the corner of 17th and Division in Nashville, the Patterson House is easily the finest purveyor of adult beverages I’ve ever encountered.
Patterson House has bartenders in bow ties, throwback charm and an atmosphere that all …

I’ve never had a bad carnitas or carne asada burrito here, and their fish tacos were just fine. Their chips are too thin and their salsa containers are way too small. Their fish burritos are awful - fish is mushy and, worse, smothered in gooey sauces. I think they …

This restaurant has great food, but very bad service. We have tried many of their dishes, many of which we enjoyed. If you happen to be craving for four-cheese lasagna, this is definitely the best place in the country to find it; however, don’t get your hopes up for …

I went to T’s restaurant on Park Avenue in Cranston and it was absolutely wonderful. It is primarily a breakfast restaurant, but they also serve lunch. I have only had the breakfast, but the things on the lunch menu look great as well. There were
I …

Vlada lounge over in New York City is an alternative gay club that wasn’t a bad place to hang around at because the place itself was pretty cool and there were a lot of positive things to be said about Vlada. The first negative thing I have to say …

One does not expect to find a fine-dining, upscale restaurant in the middle of an industrial area of a city, surrounded by warehouses and offices, but that is exactly what you will find in the southeast area of Calgary, Alberta. Last week, a friend of mine insisted we try …

I ate lunches at the cafeteria of St. John’s Hospital in Springfield, Missouri for about a week when I was at the hospital on business in June of 2008. I was pleasantly surprised by the food and selection at the cafeteria and enjoyed all my meals there.
As someone …
