Busy Bee Cafe

Busy Bee’s Fried Chicken

At a time when we’re all giving thanks. We can’t think of a more deserving restaurant to offer our thanks. No matter how busy, there is a warmth to Busy Bee Cafe. Is it the small space that forces you to mingle with other […]

Crazy Ron’s BBQ

Rib Plate with Mac & Cheese and Collard Greens

Tender, smoky and full of flavor… what more could you ask for in your bbq’d ribs? The baked mac & cheese had plenty of toasty brown cheesy bits and collards had that distinctive old-fashioned style bitterness.

Pretzel Bagels

Einstein Bros. Pretzel Bagels

It’s been years since we’ve wandered into an Einstein Bros. The lure of a pretzel bagel instigated a visit. The heavily salted pretzels are quite tasty. But, there is a doughiness to Einstein’s bagels that keeps them from being truly crave-worthy. We also tried […]

Can you see the line to the Dali exhibit?

3 Meat Burger

Sirloin, brisket & hanger…. or was it sirloin, brisket & chuck? We can’t remember. It was a nice flavorful burger topped with a huge hunk of powerful blue cheese. But, after […]

Saigon Gourmet

Beef Salad on a Bed of Raw Cabbage

Garlic Thyme Roasted Pork with Fig Conserve, Dijon & Greens

…Same as it ever was. Oops, that’s the Talking Heads. But, it is just as tasty as it ever was.

Beef Brisket Sloppy Joe

Very sloppy… knife & fork required. But, that won’t stop us […]

Rita’s Gelati

Vanilla/Island Fusion Gelati

Thick & creamy soft serve vanilla ice cream is paired with island fusion Italian ice. Nice, but, the island fusion gets too sweet… too fast. Note to self, next time, ask for more ice cream and less ice.

Chocolate/Vanilla Gelati

Machu Picchu

Papa Rellena

Mashed potatoes are stuffed with chopped beef, onion and olives then formed into the shape of a potato. A red onion salad pretties up the plate and adds a nice burst of vinegar and delicate heat to this meat & potatoes dish. For one person, this […]

Frog Jam

FROG Jam

Fig, raspberry, orange & ginger all rolled into one jam. The flavors of raspberry and fig dominate. Orange and a hint ginger contribute a nice background complexity. Yum. This is perfect for Thankgiving, Christmas and every holiday in between. Visions of sugar plums dancing in our […]
