1. Pea Soup Andersen's Restaurant
My kid likes to read lots of books, and one of his favorites is "George and Martha", by James Marshall. You remember George and Martha, the two best friends/possibly lovers/possibly siblings hippos who enjoy mischief and each others' company. In the…More »
2. Comcast Theatre
Worst outdoor venue to see a show in New England, bar none. I will easily second everything that John S. said in his review, plus add a bit more. The area that the venue inhabits is an industrial/urban crap hole. The roads that leads in and out…More »
3. King Arthur Flour
Not bad overall, but other reviewers haven't made mention of three important things.
1. Prices here are massively expensive. It's like an overpriced William-Sonoma that's focused on bread. Case in point: a 5 lb bag of white flour costs almost $5 here,…More »
4. City Lights Bookstore
San Francisco, CA 94133
(415) 362-8193
Category:
Bookstores
Neighbourhood: North Beach/Telegraph Hill
We now know where the old beatniks and hippies ended up...standing behind the counter at City Lights as cranky, crabbing old men who carp at the customers. (To be fair, there are young people working here who do try to be more helpful, most of the…More »
5. North Beach Restaurant
San Francisco, CA 94133
(415) 392-1700
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhood: North Beach/Telegraph Hill
This review is mostly for Ligaya. Our beloved Boston Community Manager is moving to the Bay Area. Sooner or later, she'll hear the name of the North Beach restaurant spill from the lips of some Yelper and go in for a dip.
NBR, my dear Ligaya, is much…More »

Neighbourhood: The Strip
Yeah, so I saw the Scorpions here. So what? You judgin' me? HERE I AM...ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE!!!
Speaking of hurricanes, I'm not exactly sure what the blue frozen thing I got from the bar was, but it was pretty good. I had about two or three or…More »
7. Denny's Restaurant
Another yummy bacon cheeseburger, but seriously poor attitude on the part of the server. A request for a soda refill was met with an angry look and a sharp "You're gonna hafta pay for that refill", to which I replied, "Well, if you don't hop to and…More »
8. Denny's Restaurant
Good burger, but this was overshadowed by the GIANT BLACK ANTS IN MY DIET COKE. And I'm not saying one little ant. There was a friggin' nest of them in there! AW HELL NO!
Ok, so if you're a server in this scenario, you'd be horrified, right? And at…More »
9. SeaWorld
Look! Shamu makes big splashes! Hooray! This was well worth the month's salary it cost me to get my family into the park!
Most of all it's just boring. RIP Marineland. At least there you could go snorkeling on the Baja reef.
Smells like fish, tastes…More »
10. Olive Garden Italian Restaurant
Normally there's no way in hell that I could ever justify giving the abominable and corporate Italian OG chain a three star review, but this OG seems to be an anomaly. We popped off the highway long enough to grab a bite (we'd done Foxboro to H-burg…More »
11. Jamestown Visitor Center
Minus one star for extreme creepster-ism.
Jamestown, VA is the first known settlement of Europeans on the US continent, arriving in 1607. Over the first few years, the settlers battled disease, food scarcity, and the constant threat of Indian attack…More »
12. Norwich Farmers Market
Mere spitting distance over the Connecticut River from Hanover, NH, the Norwich Farmers' Market is just down the street from the King Arthur flour factory. I've been to a lot of farmers' markets and this one is quite good based just on sheer variety…More »
13. Sheraton Virginia Beach Oceanfront Hotel
In the putrid redneck tourist hell of Virginia Beach, there is thankfully one bright spot of hospitality. This Sheraton is nicely appointed, with clean, comfortable rooms and a pretty good restaurant attached. The service was friendly and it's right…More »
14. Ralph and Kacoo's
Nestled in the French Quarter, Ralph and Kacoo's (I could shout "Kacoo! Kacoo!" over and over until I was hoarse. What a great name!) is a good way for anyone interested in a starter course on New Orleans cooking to get jumped in. The restaurant is…More »
15. Circus Circus
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 691-5820
When I get to hell, it will be exactly like Circus-Circus. Satan will be operating the Ferris wheel. The legion of demons will clean the substandard rooms. Beelzebub will be the concierge. Since it's hell, you'll never be able to leave; so why not…More »
16. Café Du Monde
Crowded, touristy, deep-fried goodness. Great cafe au lait mixed with chickory...bring home a pound and freeze it for special occasions. Don't wear black while eating your beignet...you'll get so much powered sugar on your shirt that people will…More »
17. Coyote Ugly Saloon
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 740-6330
Categories:
Bars,
Adult Entertainment
Neighbourhood: The Strip
Overpriced drinks with a ridiculous cover charge that gives you very little to show for it. My friend got leglessly drunk here and enjoyed the free shots, but she only got them because of her cleavage. It pays to be a female in this bar, but the…More »
18. Walmart
Texarkana, AR 71854

Categories:

I am completely ethically opposed to Wal-Mart in every way, shape, and form. They exploit their workers and inundate the market with cheap consumer goods. They destroy local businesses. In short, Wal-Mart needs to die.
However, I can marginally…More »
