5.0 star rating

A friend brought me here for my birthday.  Don't let the not-so-glam decor fool you.. because you are in for a star-treatment... (Well, when it comes to the food anyways!)

Their alcohol selection is a little scant, but that may have changed since last…More »

Seafood is one of those things that you take a chance on when you go out.  I am particularly picky (and spoiled) when it comes to seafood.  There is nothing I hate more than ordering ocean critters only to have them overcooked and dry on my plate.

Bestellen had been on my radar of must-try restaurants for awhile, but with so many new restaurants coming out of the woodwork - a food blogger really has to sprint just to keep up!

The namesake of the restaurant is German, meaning "to order" but…More »

I have officially been de-Guu-ed...
TF:  "What?  You've NEVER been to Guu?"
YT: "Nope."
TF: "What kind of Yelp Elite ARE you?"

I guess now I CAN actually have the audacity to call myself Elite?  I know...

A tribute to music and to TF tagline:

Okay wow, I totally should've figured Ken S. had already started a review page.  So this is my repost from the one I created.  

I don't think I've ever been as excited about a venue as that of last night's Guu Tweetup hosted by Ken S.  I was lucky…More »

Homer is a term in baseball which refers to a "base hit on which the batter scores a run" - more commonly known as a home run.  If I were to use baseball terms to describe my experiences at Boëhmer, I would probably use the term - bunt.  Why?  Well a…More »

Wvrst has been open for about 4 weeks and I now know why its already getting so much buzz - the sausages are yummy!

I came here after work at about 5pm to a rather empty restaurant.  Set-up in true beer hall fashion with communal tables…More »

I returned to the Dragon Pearl Buffet to celebrate Elaine K.'s birthday with a group of 30.  This place is definitely constructed for parties.  I think I saw at least 3 birthday parties simultaneously happening at the same time.  If you want to sit…More »

Ah Spice Route... After having read many mixed reviews I thought I would give it a try and judge for myself. The verdict - yet another pretentious "fine dining" Chinese restaurant that has been sent to the dog house along with Lai Toh Heen. They…More »

There aren't many things I'll line up for - food is one of those things that my patience seems to tolerate!  While ex-Black Hoofers chef Colin Tooke and front-of-house manager Ian McGrenaghan tried to keep a low profile opening, word got out fast and…More »
