Thai Jasmine

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

Healthy Thai food in a very pleasant airy environment. Great vegetarian choices and the food is always fresh and flavorful. Every first Sunday of the month a vegetarian group meets there for a buffet from 11:30-2. The food is great.

Kobe Steak House of Japan

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

Great place to take a crowd of friends to and watch them prepare the food right in front of you. Plus they are quite entertaining. We’ve had a blast there everytime regardless of it being a group of friends or group of out of town co-workers in for business meetings .. always fun.

Chihuahua’s Restaurant

Really good Mexican food at an affordable price. Plus they have great margaritas

Growler’s Pub

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

Great place to kick back and catch a Rams games on a Sunday afternoon and an even better place to have a blackened grouper. I get that every time, plus kids eat free on Sundays … what a deal.

Al’s Hamburgers

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

If you are looking for a place to get a really great burger. You gotta check it out. Just the way a burger should be nice and greasy. Plus the service is really quick for those trying to eat on their hour lunch break from the office.

Charlie’s Drive In

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

Local favorite in Wood River, IL. Old fashioned drive in – waitress actually comes out to your car (no intercoms here). They serve really great hamburgers and fries. They are best known (and loved) for their homemade rootbeer. They bring it to you in a frosty glass mug. Great on a really hot St Louis summer day (only 20 minute drive from downtown St Louis). You can order a gallon of the rootbeer to go and make the VERY best rootbeer floats at home for the whole family for less than $10 (I recommend using Breyers vanilla ice cream).

Lookout 49

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

New restaurant in Gulfport, MS. My husband and I tried it during a recent visit to the area and were really impressed. They primarily serve seafood/poboys. Probably the best seafood gumbo either of us have ever had (I grew up in South MS and have had lots of gumbo). Really reasonable prices and very casual atmosphere.

Stamey’s Barbeque

Monday, July 14th, 2008

NC style barbeque is a unique taste based usually based off of vinegar and Texas Pete hot sauce. Stamey’s is some of the best NC barbeque that you will find. There are other great barbeque joints in NC, but if you’re in or around Greensboro, you should try Stamey’s pulled pork!
