This is still my favorite place. I know it has it’s downsides(for me it’s only the menu, strictly because Im not crazy about british food) Service has always been excellent!

Being new to the Point neighborhood, we decided we needed to try the local hangout for fellow Pointers (and maybe meet some of our neighbors.) We went on a Sunday night, which was pretty quiet, and our server Joe was friendly and prompt. In an old federal house, the interior is decorated with large sailboat models and other nautical items. We were seated at a table at one of the front windows, which was nice for watching the passers-by.

It’s pretty bad when people get online and write bad reviews for a place because
“A lot of their stuff seems to be made on the premises.” Seriously?! This is what’s wrong with America. I just walked into Shane for the first time tonight and, as one small business owner to another, all I can say is… Thank You!
This is the kind of unique, fun establishment that makes Philly AMAZING. I’m trying to curb my candy impulses until XMAS, but I did indulge in an…

SoWe has some great food at an OK bar. I came here for a late dinner on a Friday night recently. The food was fantastic. We ordered the Brussel Sprouts, Sweet Po Fries, Fish Tacos, and the SoWe Burger. The burger was absolutely delicious, I would have to order it again. The fries that came with the burger were great too.

Located on Damen Avenue at Wabansia, just a block north of North Avenue, comfort extends beyond the food to our cozy 1940’s retro style dining room and bar. The warm lighting and casual atmosphere will make you and your guests feel right at home. In the mood to eat outside? Silver Cloud has one of the best dining patios in Chicago.

On our first visit, my reuben sandwish was yummy – and the cup of potato soup was good enough to make me rethink my own recipe! We went back for a seconds the next day, and I had the hot lunch buffet – Excellent tamale pie, tender steamed asparagus, a pile of cauliflower and zucchini roasted on a grill…. What a treat! My husband found a generous ham sandwich the first day, and a leg quarter of a rotisserie chicken on the second pass. Both were reported as -excellent!

I decided to try this place out after seeing that their “Dad’s Killer Sandwich” won the award for Best Sandwich in Des Moines. So I headed over there on my lunch break. First off, one of the above reviews is correct, there is a musty/old odor in the air. I don’t necessarily think it’s from mold or moisture as much as it is from the place being so old. It’s been in the neighborhood for decades.

This entrance to this place is hard to find during a rainy night, although it is probably at any time if you have never been here before. Parents asked me to pick a place for dinner and I settled on this place based on yelp reviews.
It did not disappoint.

Wonderful Japanese garden. I thought it was very easy to find (despite some reviews here) and plenty of parking at the bottom of the hill. You can either wait for the shuttle to take you up the hill or take a nice, refreshing hike up the mountain (it’s not that bad, really!)

Heading out for the day, we wanted to have a good breakfast, so Word of Mouth was going to be the destination of choice. I remembered I had heard about Busick Court and something about Rachel Ray, so I decided we should try something new.

Chicken and rice with a tomato sauce, AKA Chicken Shawerma, is what my friend and I had. He ate all of his with a great deal of enthusiasm. For me I found the spice taste not as good as Indian food but that’s a matter of personal preference. You do get a fine quality and quantity of food here at Cafe Med.

Me and the bf went here on a Saturday evening while roaming the neighborhood and shopping. They have a great happy hour that runs 7 days a week! we didn’t try any of the food however those drinks we had were STRONG! more bang for your buck, for sure! we each had 2 and they were really knocking us off our feet. this is not a bad thing! lol..the place was pretty quiet for a Saturday but I guess it was still early - the music doesn’t start until 8pm which seems to draw a pretty big…

An outstanding baseball experience! From a parent of a participant – really terrific experience. safe, friendly, clean. All well executed by the CDP staff. Snack bars well run and not too expensive - could easily be set up to gouge. Overall terrific experience as a parent, a baseball fan and just a visitor.

Need a break from all that Shakespeare? These guys will do one-on-one glassblowing classes. Jeff walked through the process, I asked him to repeat a couple of steps, then he shepherded me through doing it myself. Very cool. Plan ahead, you can’t pick up your finished piece til it cools overnight in the oven. But I’m so glad I did this, and they were very helpful and knowledgeable, kept me safe and made me feel like I was doing a good job for a beginner.

For Salem, I was surprised about the quality of this museum…as its like some secret treasure that the city is hiding. Sure it’s not a huge museum…but its big enough to spend a few hours in. And like I said, it always feels as if you have the museum completely to yourself…which is so nice. This is a part of the Willamette U campus, I believe, and so they run it nicely. Worth a visit!

This is my consistently favorite fine dining experience in the Iowa City / Cedar Rapids area. A 30 minute drive from Iowa city, you’ll find the small cafe. The decor is not very enticing, but it is quaint. However, every night there are 3 entrees and three desserts offered, and these are some of the best meals you’ll get. Locally sourced food, interesting combinations (granted, some don’t always work out), and super creative.

But basically Mary’s is in the store that used to be THE STORE IN AMAGANSETT, –The first Gourmet Food Store in The Hamptons or almost anywhere – which my parents and three friends started at a drunken dinner party in the mid-1960s. Many formative years spent watching some pretty strange goings on.

We had a long drive up from Manhattan and just missed the final brewery tour (if you go during the winter, they’re every hour, not every half hour which they don’t have updated on their website). We were able to still do the tasting which was done by Alex and he was great! He gave us a lot of the information from the tour that we missed which was fantastic. You pay $3 per person for the tasting which comes with a glass, which is about a shot glass size. Loved trying the different…

I came here three days ago after ice skating with friends for a birthday party. I had originally planned to follow their restaurant week menu, but decided against it since it was somewhat limited in choices.

We ate here because we were given a 10% off token after making a purchase at the Christmas store next door.
