I have not generally been much of a fan of the donair for a couple of reasons: First, I have not often found the meat that some donair restaurants use to be much different from ordinary meat, and also because just seeing the large racks of meat just standing …

I had heard about a unique restaurant that has recently opened in Calgary, Alberta, called Cravings Market Restaurant. The unique concept is that this establishment combines an open kitchen with sit-down table service, and allows diners to wander around the food preparation ’stations’ to watch chefs prepare their meal. …

Calgary has no shortage of great restaurants of every ethnic style, and fortunately, one of my favourite Japanese places is very near my place. I had frequented Banzai Restaurant in the past, and was relieved recently to find that the quality of the food remains as good as ever, …

Today I had my first Jimboy’s Tacos experience. I have never eaten at Jimboy’s Tacos before. My co-workers were getting lunch from there today and asked if I wanted anything. Since I had never eaten there they recommended that I get two of the original tacos. The claimed that …

BJ’s Brewhouse is one of my favorite restaurants. I love BJ’s. they have the best food. The only problem when you go there is trying to decide on what to order. They have so many options and their menu goes on for days. I love their pizzas. They have …

There is an Apple Bees restaurant near the movie theater we always go to. It is so conveniently located that every time we get out of a movie we find our selves walking to Apple Bees for some appetizers and drinks. The place is always packed and there is …

Two weeks ago, we decided to try out the new restaurant in our neighbourhood. It was none other than this new Indian restaurant. A friend of mine recommended it to me. We ordered biriyani and a naan set with a chicken curry set. We waiter …

While living in Calgary several years ago, I had often read and heard rave reviews about the Wild Orchid Asian Bistro and Lounge, located in the picturesque mountain village of Canmore, Alberta, but had never gotten around to trying it. People spoke highly of this restaurant, located in the …

For many years, every time I drove along the Trans Canada Highway between Alberta and Canada, I always was fascinated by an extremely strange looking landmark near Sicamouse, BC, and had always wanted to stop and find out exactly what the heck it is. It looks rather like a …

I had long been a fan of the great Italian cuisine and excellent service at Boccavino, in Calgary, Alberta, and it was high on my list of restaurants to visit once I returned to the city after several years. For me, it always helped that it was located next …

Vietnamese food is pretty much my favourite type of ethnic cuisine, particularly Vietnamese subs and pho. But finding a great Vietnamese restaurant that is different from the rest, especially in Calgary, Alberta, where Vietnamese restaurants are plentiful, is difficult. Last night, I found a great one-the Pho Hoai Vietnamese …

I finally tried the new Uncle Burger, which is A&W’s sirloin burger, and it was a good enough, as well as unique enough, hamburger to make me want to go back for another very soon.
On my way to Calgary from Vancouver a few days ago, my stomach was crying …

One of my favourite Greek restaurants in Calgary is Santorini Greek Taverna, located right on one of the main streets of the city, and run by a friendly Greek couple who have developed a loyal following of regulars. The food is good, the service is outstanding, and if you …

Charlie Brown Café banks on the cuteness factor and nostalgia of the Peanuts characters to lure coffee drinkers. The entrance of the branch along Cameron Road may be small but it stands out with an unmistakable glass display of chocolate cakes, cheesecakes and other pastries bearing the familiar image …

This resto is located at the heart of Subic Bay in the Philippines. I have always dined at this restaurant and I have always enjoyed this place. The parking area is very accesible to the place. It offers several car spaces of up to 50 slots, it may be …

There are several Menards locations in central Iowa, however, since I reside in Ankeny I tend to visit the Ankeny one most frequently. The Ankeny Menards is notorious for crappy customer service. If the nearest one wasn’t 20 minutes away, I wouldn’t even go to the Ankeny location.
Every time …

Mimi’s Cafe is a new restaurant to the Jordan Creek area in West Des Moines. Judging from the outside and the name “cafe” I wouldn’t have assumed this was a very large restaurant. I also assumed that it only had cafe type food like salads and small sandwiches and …

Rock Bottom Brewery has been a staple brewery in Clive, Iowa for several years. I used to go there in high school, but sort of forgot about it for awhile since it’s tucked away behind other restaurants and not easily visible from the main road (University Ave).
Anyway, my …

I’m not a huge fan of Mexican food, but I have to admit that Chilitos makes a great burrito. Chilitos also makes salads, quesadillas, and other items, but I have only tried their super burrito. In my opinion, without sour cream and guacamole, getting a burrito isn’t …

After many recommendations from my friends I decided to dine in a popular restaurant called Angel Chef, situated in the city centre, Worcester, for lunch.
My first impressions of the quaint, Chinese restaurant are that it is obviously very popular as its quite packed full of customers, even though its …

A special friend brought me here on a date recently. This restaurant is inside the Great Eastern Hotel.
At first, we were worried that it would be hard to find the place, but it turned out that the opposite was true. We just turned right at Quezon Avenue Boulevard …

The first time I stepped foot into Coco Palm restaurant was with a friend who was looking for a venue for her wedding. Upon entrance I knew that this place was the one. Coco Palm located in Pomona, California has a tropical elegant feel. It’s theme is Cuban cuisine, …

A diner is a place where you can eat from breakfast to a steak, from Italian to Greek. But it doesn’t have to be authentic and tasty always. Similar is the case with this one. You name it and you can get it here. They have another branch very …

“Welcome to Mo’s!” is the catch phrase that you hear when walking through the doors to Mo’s Southwest Grill. The greeting sets the ton for the dining expereince. Mo’s has a very positive and upbeat atmosphere with a generally exuberant and …

I went to Sui-Sha Ya for a friend’s birthday - it wouldn’t have been my first choice, as there are other, in my opinion better, Japanese restaurants in the Metrotown mall area. But the group I was with seemed to think that this place was pretty good - although …

It has been many years since I have eaten at The Pantry, but last week while doing errands, I could not find a pub for lunch, which is my usual lunch-time preference, so as I drove by The Pantry in Abbotsford, BC, I decided to give it a try. …

This place is one of the most fantastic dive bars I’ve ever been to. I miss the days when I used to live within crawling distance. They have live bands that play there on the weekends - good bands like the Soul Rebels. There’s also a kitchen that opens …

Pirate’s Alley has been a favorite place of mine for several years. There’s something very special about sitting there at dusk, just feet away from the St. Louis Cathedral and the Cabildo…a location filled with a rich history. It is rumored to be a former meeting and market place …

Sweetgreen totally reinvents the word “fresh.” This new establishment with locations in Bethesda, MD, Georgetown (Washington, DC), and Dupont Circle (Washington, DC) will always be my choice when I am craving fresh and delicious salads. Sweetgreen’s countless options leave competitors such as Cosi, Chop’t, Au Bon Pain, and Panera …

Applebee’s tends to be one of my favorite places to go for a nice sit down meal on Saturday night. It may be overpriced by some standards, but when I go alone I can get away with a decent, satisfying meal for about twelve bucks and my wallet doesn’t …

I tried this restaurant while I was in Greenbelt 5. The name entails Spanish lineage so I was excited. I’ve tried a local spanish restaurant here in Cebu before, “Sol Y Luna”, sadly, they are closed now. That was my first try of spanish cuisine and I find the …

After watching a movie last Sunday, my husband and I decided to go to Red Robin Restaurant. That was my first time there. And I would say that I was kinda out of place. I think I was the only Asian in that restaurant that day.
Red …

First of all, I am not a fast-food fan; yes, I get cravings for a big, juicy, beef hamburger with all the trimmings, accompanied by very salty French fries, every now and then, but generally, my stomach doesn’t like me much after any deep-fried meal. Sometimes, though, out of necessity …

This particular IHOP doesn’t not meet the standard other IHOPs I have been to showed me.
Though I went with my wife on a slow day (it was a Tuesday), service was not particularly fast. I cannot complain it was slow, but considering the small number of customers it should …

Le Grafitti is a restaurant where they serve French or Italian food - I mean really good French or Italian food!
I went only once, but I will certainly go back since everything there is perfect.
I had scallops to begin my meal and was greatly surprised to see their big …

For my birthday recently me, my husband and two friends went to BBs Italian restaurant in Sheffield city centre. It’s a really small restaurant, and very popular, especially on a Saturday night, so you do need to book. We booked a table for 7.30, at which point the staff …

Located just blocks from downtown, Savannah Ga, this has got to be one of the best restaurants that I have eaten at in a long time.
The theam of the restraunt is based on the name of the place, and if seafood is your thing then this is the …

This is a great place. I usually go on the weekend with some friends. The dinner buffet is about $9.00 after taxes. This is a very attractive price. The dinner is the best anyways, but lunch and breakfast are cheaper. The dinner buffet features a whole bunch of food …

My children and I have been chicken lovers and Kenny Rogers is just one of our favorite restos, I must admit. When Kenny Rogers opened their branch in Robinson’s Imus, I must say my family was probably one its very first customers. There were a lot of flaws …

One of my favorite food trip was at Fuzion Smoothie Cafe at Greenbelt 3.I love the ‘fused-up’ drinks. Although the drinks look a bit weird, they tasted hell good. Made from fruits, they are surely a healthy treat for everyone. For Berry Smoothies, they serve Very Berry Good (made …

I never have chicken when I eat out; I like chicken, and I eat it at home a lot, but for some reason, I just don’t think any restaurant could prepare chicken in enough of a special or unique way to warrant me paying money for it. That view …

Returning to one of my old haunts in Calgary, Alberta, Jack Astor’s Bar and Grill, proved to me that while you can never really go home again, some old stand-bys retain their quality over the years. I had remembered good times there, with good food and drinks, and while …

Driving down 2nd street, you’ll definitely be able to notice Trader Ed’s amidst the more shabby buildings that surround it. Obviously well taken care of, it boasts being the oldest pub in America. Upon entering, the large bar is definitely the highlight of the place, with what one can …

This restaurant is a must! If you like sushis, if you want to try it for the first time or if you are among them who ate not-so-good sushis once and want to try it again because all your friends are telling you sushis are good, you HAVE …

Today is the last day of my colleague at work because she has already resigned and will transfer to another company already. We are supposed to dine in a Japanese restaurant within the building premises but someone suggested that we try out the Chinese restaurant called “Eat Well!” From …

I have been to a Conti’s pastry shop only at their Trinoma Branch in Quezon City. This pastry shop and restaurant offers a wide range of products cooked to their own style and of course some really enticing and memorable tastes. Their menu includes a wide selection ranging from …

The Texas Chili Parlor is one of the more famous restaurants in Austin, TX but since I am not from there I had never heard of the place. I first came to learn about it when I was watch a show with Guy Fierri on the Food Network and …

The first time I went to Ruby’s was because of the fact that my GPS was not working and I could not find my way house while traveling up there. I stopped there so that I could get a bite to eat and find someone who could provide me …

It had been many years since I had been to an ABC Country Restaurant, but recently, while visiting friends after a night out, we decided to go for a late breakfast at the Burnaby, BC location. I may be a bit spoiled from my cross-border trips to Washington State, …
