Like I said in my review about Longhorn steakhouse, I love steak. However, I can guarantee that there is one steakhouse in Valdosta that I absolutely cannot stand: Austins Steakhouse. I have only been there once and I will not go back.
First, the food is terrible. The one time …

If you’re ever looking for an easy meal at a low price, I would highly recommend Tortinos Party pizzas.
Usually costing under $1.50, these pizzas, while admittedly not the best tasting pizzas on the market, are easy to make and can feed 2-3 people in a hurry.
My favorite thing about …

There’s a lot of hype about the Tupelo Honey Cafes in Asheville, but I’m still trying to find a perfect entree that lives up to the hype. However, this place has some of the best honey and biscuits ever, along with fantastic, southern-style appetizers and sides.

If you have not yet had the Benihana experience, I thoroughly recommend it. Especially for parties, and other celebrations with a group of people. That’s because it’s not just dining, it’s entertainment thrown-in.
