just flew back on a Delta ‘red-eye’…..and had a Salt of the Earth ‘The Cookie’ and think it’s the best cookie I’ve ever tasted!!! My cardiologist may “kill me” but……so what!! Try “The Cookie”. It is killer good.

Seven Stars Bakery – Menu with Prices – 820 Hope St, Providence

Whenever I’m in Providence, I stop by at one of the Seven Stars Bakeries, but I really like this one on Hope Street (mostly because I can park in front and run in). They have a killer chocolate chip cookie — not like a super sweet loaded with chocolate cookie that’s a 1,000 calories. These cookies are chewy, soft, not too sweet, about the size of palm, not too much chocolate, and they have an old school bakery flavor that’s hard to describe. It’s the taste that warms me up and makes me feel happy. And, my husband feels the same way. When you see the chocolate chip cookie, it’s not a sexy gooey look, but more of a “here I am, your favorite cookie” kind of thing. Clearly this cookie is underrated because people go for the croissants and bread and lemon cake, but try the chocolate chip cookie and transport yourself back in time.

Smitty’s Restaurant St James – Menu with Prices – 1017 St James St, Winnipeg

Tuesday and Thursday wing nights at Smitty’s…a favourite of many in this city. Compared to other places, at 6 wings for $2.64 (which works out to $0.44 each), this is ridiculously cheap! The wings are smaller but I don’t mind and come breaded or naked (non-breaded) with quite a few flavours. There’s hot, killer, cajun, salt & vinegar, electric honey, bbq, salt n pepper, sweet chili, lemon pepper, dry and a few more. The “killer” which is their spiciest wing was super lame…so Smitty’s is not the place for spicy wings at all. The killer flavour was more salty than spicy – boo! I loved their salt ‘n pepper flavour as it goes well with my beer – Keith’s Red for $4.55. The sweet chile was pretty good without being too sweet. Service here is hit and miss…not sure if they were understaffed or just slow but it takes a little time to get refills and additional wing orders. This place gets pretty busy past 7 pm as there was a line up waiting to get into the lounge. Granted there was a Jets game on as well as being a Thursday night. The lounge looks way nicer than the Grant and Pembina location as the decor is newer. It’s still a sports bar feel to it but everything looked clean and nice. But you definitely can’t beat this place for value for beer and wings. Casual feel where you can hang out with a group of friends.

Downtown Dough Chattanooga – Menu with Prices – 100 Market St, Chattanooga

Fabulous. As a resident Chattanoogan with a big sweet tooth I have tried almost every desert place in Chatt and can say that the new Downtown Dough is up there with the best of them. The woman serving us (owner possibly?) was very kind and helpful. She told us about how the cookie dough is made and what makes it different from other competitions like the cookie dough store on northshore. The desserts itself were delicious. They tasted like actual cookie dough, not just some amalgamation that’s scooped into an ice cream cup. The dough was COLD, authentic, and tasted like something straight from my mom’s kitchen. I really hope this business takes off and has a successful run here in Chatt. It felt like I was at an old time fudge shop at the boardwalk but with the previously forbidden raw cookie dough as the main attraction. I’m also excited to see they have coffee, drinks, and banana popsicles which I’ll have to go back for! tl;dr best cookie dough place in chattanooga, if you are caught up in the “craze” that’s the no bake cookie dough and left feeling unsatisfied you will find that satisfaction here

Cookie Dough Dreams – Menu with Prices – 124 E Magnolia Blvd, Burbank

My 3 year old son and I were looking to kill some time one day while waiting to pick up my daughter from a birthday party and after getting a few things at Cost Plus in the mall, we headed out and I remembered seeing the sign for Cookie Dough Dreams while we were driving. We walked in and it really is a colorful and kid friendly space. My son kept thinking we were getting ice cream as the shop is set up similar to a Cold Stone or Baskin Robbins and I reminded him that this was all cookie dough in the bins and not ice cream. He selected the s’mores cookie dough with Reeses Pieces and some other mix in. The girl scooped out the cookie dough (like an ice cream shop) and mixed in the toppings and put it into the cup. I was reading that they use fresh ingredients and the cookie dough is safe to eat while the dessert was being prepared. They have a variety of flavors and then special desserts they can create. Nothing sounded particularly tempting to me. We paid (I’d say borderline pricy for what you get) and then sat down to enjoy the cookie dough. My 3 year old loved it and he polished off the whole thing except the few bites I had in between. It does taste good, and I do love cookie dough so I was happy about that but didn’t really feel the s’more flavor as we had mixed in some other things. Overall, an interesting and tasty idea. A place I’d come infrequently, but a good idea for a ‘special treat’ place with the kids. Even if the ingredients are ‘fresh’ this is by no means a healthy eating option.

Donna Marie’s Gluten Free Bakery – Menu with Prices – 1694 Penfield Rd, Rochester

Came in here for the usual, a chocolate chip cookie, but chose to get an almond butter cookie and a brownie with walnuts. The almond cookie and the brownie were absolutely awesome. I highly recommend you try the brownie, who doesn’t like a good brownie?! I’ve heard other great things about their cupcakes which I will save for another visit. Onwards to the cookie. The cookie was smaller than I hoped but what it lacked it size, it made up for in substance. Because the cookie was small, they used smaller morsels, which there were plenty of; so the cookie definitely had a nice chocolatey taste to it. The aroma was tough to pinpoint since the cookie was slightly chilled, which usually masks some of the smell. It took about four bites and cookie was all gone. I would give the cookie 4 stars, could have been a bit bigger but hey, you cant have everything. Overall though, I would give Donna’s 5 stars due to the quality of her treats. The almond cookie and the brownie was an awesome compliment to the cookie, as I’m sure everything behind the glass is!

Open Door Coffee House Menu with Prices 4600 Highwood Dr, Arlington

I feel very fortunate to have gotten to perform at Open Door many years ago… the patrons and the volunteers are salt of the earth good!

PB & J’s Lunch Box – Menu with Prices – 989 James St, Syracuse

I came to the Everson today for the food truck and music fest. I was very excited to try PB&J lunchbox. I ordered a grilled PB&J with strawberry jam, loaded smashed potatoes, and an everything but the lunchbox cookie. The grilled PB&J was huge. A sandwich and a half. And it came out piping hot. But honestly, it just tasted like a greasy version of toast with peanut butter. I thought it would be more special. It wasn’t. I was seriously disappointed. The loaded smashed potatoes were ok. 3 small salt potatoes smashed and loaded with cheese, bacon, and sour cream. I think they would’ve been better if they were a little crispy. The cookie had oatmeal, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and nuts. The onlly thing I tasted were the chocolate chips and it was really dry. Not impressed at all. Overall, didn’t love it. I had serious food envy of my boyfriend and my son who got food from the other food truck.

Augusta Regional Airport Menu with Prices 1501 Aviation Way, Augusta

You definitely don’t need to get here early for your flight. This is a small, quaint airport that is an easy in and out, but there are 0 amenities. The airport only has 2 real gates sections that are across from each other and you board from the runway. The place probably deserves 5 stars except for the fact that almost none of the staff is friendly and this is my 3rd trip here. They’re not mean, they just look and act like they hate their jobs and us passengers are a thorn in their proverbial side. Although, Michael at the ticket counter for Delta was funny, helpful, smiling and definitely deserves 5 stars. I would say it’s a Delta thing but his female coworker at the counter was just as disinterested in helping people as the rest of the Augusta Airport staff… Side note: our flight crew looked, acted and just plain sounded like they slept in their trunks after partying all night. Should be an interesting flight…

Wendy’s Place – Menu with Prices – 861 Grimmett Dr, Shreveport

Good common sense, salt of the earth, Christian folks. I have freedom to use my talents and skill set, but a team that will teach you pretty much anything ya take interest in. All around I have to say, good place to work. I’ve seen a lot worse for sure.

The Bigg Chill – Menu with Prices – 10850 W Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles

Found this place through yelp and was so excited to try this place because lately I’m obsessed with cookie dough!! They have so much variety of cookie dough flavors so I had to go! The place is super retro neon which is super cute. The owner is super nice and let us sample different flavors of the frozen yogurt which was not bad I like the classic vanilla and the cookie butter. I ordered a small size cup, you can have two yogurt flavors but I only chose classic vanilla. For toppings you have to pay extra. 2$ for 3 toppings I chose the chocolate chip cookie dough, peanut cookie dough and crushed Oreos. Sadly I was pretty disappointed that they don’t offer samples for the cookie dough, but other places do. My boyfriend ordered the espresso frozen yogurt with sugar cookie dough, mint chips and cheesecake bits. I was very disappointed with the cookie dough! The quality was really bad the cookie dough was not smooth at all and it tasted old and churchy not because of the chocolate chip. The peanut cookie dough was worst the peanuts were really stale. I did not like their cookie dough at all I just ate the frozen yogurt with the crushed Oreos. They should let customers to try the cookie dough before getting it. What made me threw the rest of my ice cream away was when the froyo was starting to melt, I saw a separation of the froyo and watery yellow liquid it was gross. The price was also disappointing as well for 2 smallest container of frozen yogurt with toppings is $14, 7$ each. It is overpriced for the bad quality I’m getting. I don’t think I will be coming bad. 2 stars because the service was pretty good.

Cookie Jar Eatery – Menu with Prices – 230 S Phillips Ave, Sioux Falls

I unfortunately can’t speak for their affordable and diverse breakfast and lunch offerings but I can reflect upon the privilege my mouth experienced whilst masticating one of the cookies from their jar. I purchased a “bomb.com” cookie. Expectations were high, as was nostalgia for the vintage catchphrase, and the cookie did not disappoint. I did not read what actually was on the cookie but a more discerning consumer may read the label in the case for accuracy. The cookie was everything a cookie should be. Flavorful, moderately crumbly as a result of moisture (not dryness), appropriately sized, and consistent throughout (did not have the crispy edge and barely moist middle that is found at a lesser cookie purveyor). It was topped with a creamy chocolate frosting and peanut butter and chocolate candy chunks. Cookie was large enough for two separate cookie breaks at work; however, my steely resolve and self discipline was no match for my desire to get as much of the cookie in my mouth ASAP. It was truly https://www.bomb.com/tastycookie/perfection/

Cathy’s Cookie Kitchen – Menu with Prices – 266 W Jefferson St, Syracuse

Cathy’s Cookies are deliciously sweet! I had the pleasure of trying them for the first time at a Yelp event. I had the chocolate chip chunk cookie and thought it was perfectly chewy. It was decorated with frosting on top which made it ultra pretty but definitely put it over the top in terms of sweetness and sugar. I imagine the cookie alone is great, especially paired with some milk to cut the sweetness. I liked the texture of the cookie and how it wasn’t too crumbly. I also liked the thickness and size of the cookie. Their store also sells ice cream, lemonades, slushees, muffin cookies and edible cookie dough. They have a cookie club for $45 a month for those true cookie monsters. You get 4 deliveries that includes a bunch of cookies and discounts. This would be great for a work office, school or home with folks who aren’t on a wedding diet like myself.
