The staff gave me a great suggestion for serving ice cream to 200 kids at an event by ordering their sliced jimmy rolls. Perfection! Every parent and teacher that has encountered how they package this has raved at the brilliance! Couldn’t be easier or more delicious! Kudos

Mediterra Bake House – Menu with Prices – 1979 W 25th St # B9, Cleveland

I’m not really eating bread much these (I know, it’s sad…) But you can’t *always* say no, especially to a man holding a glorious, rustic, crusty loaf of perfection right in front of your chin at the West Side Market. So, I gave in. And what a way to give in, people. I didn’t waste my bread cheat day on some whack rolls or flatbread pizza that I’d regret later, oh no. I went all out. To start from the beginning, we went to the WSM. On a Saturday. After 3PM. (We’ve lived in Ohio City for *years* and you still can’t avoid this all the time.) Anyways, not only was it a madhouse, but most all the typical bakery stands we go to were sold out. That is, until we saw Mediterra. And honestly, I’m not really sure what took us so long to notice this place. I mean, it’s near a bunch of the stands we frequent on a regular basis… Anyways, we turned to see this glowing case full of crusty loafs looking rather delicious. The gentleman came right up to us to see what we were looking for. My beau replied that we were making a roast (meat from Vince’s, of course) and he was looking for a nice loaf of crusty bread to serve it with. The gentleman knew right away, picked it up and showed us. Then, here’s the best part, he squeezed it a little to show us its perfect crust. All you heard was this glorious “crunch,” and we were sold. He wrapped it up WITH instructions hand-written on the package of the proper temperature/time to reheat it. Mind you, we didn’t ask for this info, it was just given. He also threw in a free package of buns (the most delicious-looking ones I’ve seen-almost too perfect) since it was towards the end of the day and we were new customers. So, we took it home, warmed it up in the oven at 325 degrees for 20 minutes and it was utter perfection. Perfectly toasty, crunchy on the outside, chewy, giving way to soft in the middle. And don’t tell anyone, but it’s perfect for French toast making in the AM… Four stars for now, until I come back to try more varieties.

Jimmy’s UNA Pizza – Menu with Prices – 4711 Pollack Ave, Evansville

Jimmy is not only an expert at pizza and stroms but he is by far one heck of a man. Great person. Great food. Wonderful place to visit. For anyone passing through Evansville you have to stop by it’s delicious! And what’s even better for 14 bucks you get two full stroms that’s not skimpy he pours his heart and soul into his food. Keep up the great work Jimmy. You will always have my service!

Mucha Lucha Taco Shop – Menu with Prices – 1530 S Val Vista Dr, Gilbert

Is there new owners or something? My last experience here was just excellent, but man this time was completely different. I guess me and my brother were bugging them ordering our food. The man working couldnt have been more condescending and the women couldnt wait to get to the back. I didn’t even order any food for myself or my son because my wifes order irritated them enough so I said screw it. My brothers wet burrito came out dry and he couldnt really saying about it because they rushed off as soon he paid. Two people were in there when we showed up so it was definitely not busy. Idk what their problems were but it was more then enough for me and my brother to never ever eat at this restaurant again. Also to the women worker, when you roll your eyes try looking away so the customer cant constantly see you doing. Just fyi for the next guy…

La Peche Gourmet – Menu with Prices – 1147 Bardstown Rd, Louisville

I was leaving town and arriving back on Christmas, so dropped into Lilly’s take out to get food for our holiday meal. The food was incredible. Their beef bourguignon with noodles was really out of this world, even after being frozen and reheated. I picked up four petite creme brûlée and the staff gave me unsolicited but badly needed advice on how to keep it fresh for several days. It was their suggestion to have custard and shells packaged separately and even sent me home with a little brown sugar. A gentlemen brought out a propane torch and demonstrated how to carmelize the topping. The lady who waits on me asked questions about when I was serving the food and was extremely helpful. On Christmas I came back home to easily construct a meal worthy of any of louisvilles finest restaurants. My guests raved about each dish! Thanks Kathy for having such thoughtful and helpful staff. I never would have been able to put this meal together without them. Our Christmas dinner was one of the best I’ve ever served!

Jimmy’s New York Pizzeria – Menu with Prices – 7123 S 92nd E Ave, Tulsa

I have to admit, that growing up in northern New Jersey I’m a bit of a pizza snob, so when my son-in-law suggested we try Jimmy’s New York Pizza I was cautiously pessimistic. The last place he took us for pizza didn’t turn out very well. But let me tell you Jimmy’s is worth the trip! It’s a little off the beaten path, behind the Quik Trip, so keep your eyes peeled. I knew Jimmy and I were going to hit it off right away when I told him I was from “Jersey ” and he said to me “Jersey, get out” with a smile on his face. I like a little east coast tude. Jimmy, his daughter and the entire staff were friendly attentive and made the trip. (Although he didn’t have a cork screw for our wine) we got a large cheese pizza and a large pizza with sausage and meatballs. Both were excellent. Then we topped the dinner off with a few cannolis, also very good. As you eat you are surrounded by pictures of New York and listening to the Chairman of the Board, Sinatra. I was humbled and appreciative of his wall remembering 9-11, which we spoke about and I’ll be sending him some new pictures soon. So if you’re looking for some great pizza and a little slice of New York in the Tulsa area, give Jimmy’s a try . He even has a new cork screw for your wine! Definitely going back on my next trip to visit our daughter and family.

Jimmy’s Water Ice – Menu with Prices – 2251 S Front St, Philadelphia

Owned by Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Somerville, Jimmy Carter, and Jimmy Kneecricket. The kids working here are really nice. Their infamous chocolate flavour does nothing for me, but it’s interesting and worth a try. The lemon is good, whereas the cherry is good but disappointingly has no chunks of cherry in it. The water ice here is super cold (lol, I sound stupid, but some ice is less cold than others, or something, sort of). It has a lush consistency. It’s the cheapest of all the famous and underrated water ice shops in South Philly. They all taste slightly different, and this one seems to be the sweetest in terms of sugar content. Water Ice is like the Roast Pork Sandwich and the infamous Cheesesteak. Only unlike the Cheesesteak (and much like the Pork), it’s absolutely delicious. I have no idea why, of these 3 claims to food fame, it’s the bland, boring one (Cheesesteak) that became internationally famous. Forget it. Come here and get yourself a water ice or a Gelati, and you’ll see what I mean. Water Ice has been exported around the country now by Rita’s, which is from Philly, but it’s still not as famous as it should be. In South Philly you have an assortment of tiny little family-owned water ice shops, which over time will go out of business if we are unlucky. I believe Italiano’s already has, or will be soon. Gelati mixes layers of frozen custard with water ice. It sounds like it might not work but it absolutely does. It’s wonderful. Rita’s does a version using soft serve and it works really well, but since you can get that at Rita’s, skip that option, and do the Pop’s original, the unique specialty for South Philly Water Ice shops… the Gelati using hand-dipped hard ice cream. Vanilla, specifically.

La Fresa Ice cream Menu with Prices 447 Darrow Rd, Akron

I’ve eaten here twice now and it’s one of my favorite places. Everything was fresh and delicious. We watched the cook cut up fresh steak and chicken breasts for our order before cooking them to perfection. The soft tacos were quite tasty with cilantro and onion and I topped them off with their homemade pico de gallo…loved it. Ordered steak nachos $7.95 and was surprised at how generous they were with the tender and savory steak. They topped it off with a perfect balance of cheese, tomato, onion, sour cream, some kind of excellent sauce, and the best beans I’ve had in a long time. I was so stuffed but couldn’t stop eating because it was just too good. My wife loved everything as well. Service was very friendly and it was simply a great experience all around. The menu is substantial and authentic judging by the cheerful crowd we encountered, many of them hispanic. Some of the items I was unfamiliar with, but everything looked delicious. A huge selection of ice cream, fruity drinks and desserts to choose from as well as a small store area with hispanic sweet treats. Don’t miss out in this gem in the Akron area! Top notch!!

Greenmount Coffee Lab Menu with Prices 1400 Greenmount Ave, Baltimore

So this was just the cutest coffee shop that I have ever seen. So I just moved close to this location and I pass it everyday. I promised myself that I would stop pass. Today I went to a parent teacher conference and my daughter teacher told me how amazing this place was so today I figured it would be the perfect day because it was cold and rainy. My barista was so amazing. Her name was Sara. She let me try different things, she explained everything to me, She made suggestions and she was just so patient with me. I also had my kids with me and we are no experts on drinking coffee so we needed all the help we can get. Well I am so busy and had so much to do I told Sara that I needed a strong drink but to make it sweet. She did exactly that! LOL. I think I had two or more shots of expresso. I am so hype right now…. normally I am sleep at this hour! LOL… I have the good, the bad and the ugly about this situation. The Good: This place was cute… They sell more than just coffee. Including food, seasonal items and specialty drinks ( since it’s fall they have apple cider and pumpkin flavored drinks. They have a full coffee menu that is so creative and cute. The Bad: I think that the next time I am going to stick with tea or cider because I am so buzzed off of my coffee and the shots of expresso. The Ugly: The expresso has me so jittery that I have thought about making myself throw up twice already to make this feeling go away! But that Cider drink that I tried today was so AMAZING!!!! Please stop pass and request that before they switch the seasonal drink to something else. You won’t be disappointed!

United paleteria y neveria – Menu with Prices – 2039 Tully Rd, Modesto

Good ice and ice cream and friendly service! Made by the parent company in Hayward daily. Good selection with natural flavors and ingredients. They have smoothies, banana splits, and milk shakes along with aquas frescas. They also have traditional Mexican ice cream desserts such as Mangonada.

Jimmy T’s Soft Serve – Menu with Prices – 10631 Courthouse Rd, Fredericksburg

Jimmy T’s is literally in the middle of a parking lot. A tonnnnnnnn of flavors to choose from. It was super cold outside so I quickly ordered the Cheesecake Sundae but replaced the vanilla ice cream for cheesecake ice cream. I thought overall the sundae was tasty and a great deal – it was giant and 2 people could barely finish it. I thought the cheesecake bites were a little bit chewy unlike the ones I’ve had before, but it did hold up well in the sundae. The cheesecake ice cream was alright though I’ve had better elsewhere. I definitely need to give this place a second try and try their other flavors – maybe apple pie or caramel!

Cowboys Roadhouse – Menu with Prices – 1034 Elizabeth Rd, Winnipeg

okay i was here for the throwback night end of march. the bouncers and security were extremely negligent. the line formed into a mob so tightly packed that i couldnt breath and couldnt get out to leave the premises even if i wanted to, which i did. At a certain point my arm got trapped between the gaggle of people, and when i tried to get it back it resulted in my wristlet (containing my cards, money, and ID) getting torn off my wrist with the zipper broken off. i was seperated from my friends at this point so i was on my own. i couldnt even bend down to try to find my bag since it was so tightly packed. i yelled for the security guard to do something, to break it up, and he said “theres nothing i can do” which is super not true. luckily once i was finally shoved inside i found my bag had been kicked to the entrance with my things all inside. my whole body is sore from being squished at all angles, my friend has bruises up her wrist from the mob. i feel that this was negligent of the club. if i could give it 0 stars i would. one of the worst experiences ive had.

Fresh Start Market and Espresso – Menu with Prices – 3020 Center St NE, Salem

I used to love going to this place for a quick breakfast. But we went today without having gone for awhile and the quality has gone waaaaaaaay down hill. We ordered a plain bagel, toasted, with cream cheese and a bagel sausage breakfast sandwich. The biggest issue was the breakfast sandwich. What we got, was a microwaved Jimmy Dean biscuit sandwich. This is obviously not a bagel sandwich. Also, even if I had been okay with a biscuit sandwich, I definitely don’t want a gross, greasy, msg filled, microwaved sandwich. But even the plain bagel with cream cheese was a failure. The bagel itself was terrible. It was thin, dense and very dry. When they toasted it, it got even drier and was burnt in places. And the tiny serving of cream cheese they provided barely covered one side of the bagel. This was a huge let down. However! I do have to say, I went here for lunch a couple of weeks ago and got a black bean burger that was very good. So, go ahead and give it a shot for lunch, but for breakfast, you are better off just buying something in the frozen section and microwaving it yourself. It would probably be cheaper and you’d at least be able to pick out something you actually want.
