Sorry, but I'm a big fan of Au Bon Pain. We don't have one on the West coast, so I like coming here.
I know a lot of people from the East Coast tend to give this place low or average stars because it's a chain, but I like them.
This cafe is…More »
I've eaten here several times with friends. This location is often referred to as "The Gay Egg" in the Gay & Lesbian community. The place where gays go for brunch on the weekends. I love that it's close to the light rail, they have free wi-fi…More »

The restaurant itself is clean, cheery, and bright. There is plenty of seating for those waiting to get in, and the service is fast. Our server Jaime made sure…More »
I normally don't like to review chains because there's too many of them, but I received a nice surprise in the mail from Dunkin Donuts. They remembered my birthday! Isn't that sweet? It was a birthday card with an offer of a free beverage.
So I went…More »
I was in Reno yesterday and had a few hours before my flight, so my sister and I decided to have tea at a local cafe. I suggested Java Jungle because I used to come here back in the day.
This coffee joint has been here forever. I moved out of Reno 15…More »

Grrrr........ I love themed family restaurants. This place is very kitchy and great for children. My niece certainly enjoyed it. There's a guy in bear costume that walks around to keep the little young-lings amused. We had breakfast here this morning…More »
I am a fan of this Safeway. The reason? They have free wi-fi and they carry practically everything that I need to start my healthy weight loss program. No...I'm not talking laxatives, diet pills and artificial sweeteners although they have those too.…More »
This is just up the street from Royal La Haina Resort where I stayed at.
I had breakfast here with 3 eggs, rice and corn bread. It was pretty average. You can't really mess up breakfast you know what I'm say-in'? It was just scrambled eggs and rice,…More »

One of the better managed of this huge and growing chains. The employees were friendly and helpful and it seems like there's a bit more variety of prepared foods here than at most locations.
The only downer is the cost of my favorite beverage. It…More »

Where do I get them? Well I travel for a living and people leave them on…More »
