Joey’s is an institution in Lafayette, and has remained preeminent as a gourmet food store and meat market even as such stores have proliferated with the town’s growth. In business since 1981, Joey’s has always been the premiere destination for top quality meats and seafood in town. While the meats are top quality in their own right, I’d definitely recommend letting Joey’s prepare them for you, as well – their prepared foods are wonderful. We make it a practice to tailgate before LSU games, and when we do, we always throw some of Joey’s incredible shish kebabs on the grill – they tend to make us the envy of the parking lot! They make wonderful soups, stews, and etoufees, as well, and ship their prepared foods most places across the nation. They also have a great deli with a wide selection of domestic and imported meats and cheeses. Here, too, their prepared foods shine – their shrimp salad, in particular, is the stuff of Lafayette legend. Their bakery is famously good, as well, especially their signature cake balls. Rounding out Joeys’ offerings is their wine selection, which rivals any in town – and the staff is knowledgeable enough to help you make the right selection. Not just a market, Joey’s also caters events and is open as a restaurant for lunch. Try a delicious po’boy, stuffed potato, or deli sandwich to get a taste of why Joey’s has become such a Lafayette institution. Try finding business listings online with globalYP.net.

Chow Down In Chattanooga, TN At The Curry Pot

The Curry Pot is so wonderful! They are located in a shopping center in Chattanooga, TN. From the moment you step in the door, you know that the food is fresh and good. It is a family owned business so extra care is taken for everything. I love their lunch buffet. I do not usually eat at a buffet, but this one is unbelievable. It has salad, bread, vegetarian dishes, many delicious dishes with chicken, lamb or goat, soups and dessert. The price is very reasonable at $5.95 and goes up slightly on the weekend for a more expanded buffet. My favorite dish is the Chicken Tika Masala. If you order off of the menu, you have so much to choose from that getting a fruit Lassi, an Indian yogurt based drink that is somewhat like a smoothie, to hold you over until you can decide might be a good idea. When you do decide, they will make it to your order and spice level, so if you like it hot you can have it hot. I just cannot say enough good things about The Curry Pot. If you get a chance, try it. It will soon be your favorite restaurant too! Find things sooner with globalYP.net, yellow pages that are online.

Carolina Grocery In New York, NY Has Fair Prices On Food

Posted by Keri W. on June 16, 2010
Eating & Drinking Places, Retail Stores / No Comments

Carolina Grocery is a good choice for a quick food run or other simple errand. Their location at 315 Pleasant Avenue in New York, NY provides a source of goods that does not require the walk to 1st Avenue, which is wonderful, especially late at night. The staff is kind and accommodating (by New York standards). Another thing that gives them an advantage over nearby competitors (and there are plenty) is that they accept credit or debit cards as a form of payment. There is a ten dollar minimum to use your card, but with their selection (which includes a fairly wide range of items, from basic non-edible goods to food and alcohol) it is often not hard to meet this requirement. Prices are fair for NYC, which is saying something as many retailers choose to continually raise prices even above the normal crazy city usual. I would recommend Carolina Grocery to a friend, especially one living in the East Harlem area. That close to FDR Drive, it is usually impossible to find many stores that are closer. For a great experience that will make you want to come again and again, make sure to give Carolina Grocery a try. Give globalYP.net a try and search through tons of local directory listings online.

banzai japanese restaurantBanzai Japanese Restaurant is a small place tucked into a strip mall in the Greenhaven neighborhood of Sacramento, CA. Don’t be fooled by what you see from the outside. Inside, the walls are painted with bright colors, the tables and chairs are attractive, and there is a great Sushi bar in front. The menu is extensive with a large variety of Sushi. Banzai features many specialty rolls, and also puts on a great presentation when you order Nigiri. We recently ordered Tobiko, which featured the roe dyed black, green, and the traditional orange. Besides Sushi, Banzai has many noodle dishes. Customers can choose between Udon or Soba noodles. Banzai has many featured lunch and dinner combinations and specials, as well as kid’s plates. The prices are reasonable; the most expensive dinner combinations that contain 3 separate items, plus rice, salad, and a fried dumpling cost under twenty dollars. Sushi rolls vary from about seven to fifteen dollars. The service is organized and the employees were very friendly and polite. They readily agreed to create a combination dinner for me that was not on the menu. We will definitely return!

An Infusion Of Flavor At Chinnar Indian Cuisine in Berwyn, PA

chinnar indian cuisineFinding a bona fide Indian restaurant is hard enough without going into a major city; even then, the fare is usually some sort of Asian fusion catered for the masses. But for Main Line suburbanites in the know, Chinnar Indian Cuisine in Berwyn, PA offers authentic dishes seven days a week. I have visited numerous times for dinner! However, I intend to make an earlier arrival at the soonest opportunity in order to take advantage of their daily lunch buffets. Everything I have ventured in trying has never disappointed. The best part of not knowing what I am trying is that it practically ensures something new with every return visit. Of course, some items have become part of my staple additions: vegetable samosa and pakora for appetizers served with mulligatawny soup is the perfect preamble to the coming entrée. I have a difficult time choosing my favorite main dish, but I always lean to their lamb dishes, particularly the lamb vindalu – a hot and sour curry flavoring cooked into tender pieces of lamb that practically dissolve in your mouth. My fiancée is bound to take some of my dish, so I order something new for us both to share as well. Her favorites usually are any of the biryanis (shrimp, chicken and lamb), but likes the vegetarian dishes as well. We always recommend this place because the service and the food never disappoints. Come dine here with friends, family, and dates who have a sense of adventure! To find more restaurants that serve ethnic food, visit globalYP.net, an online directory.

boscos nashville breweryNashville, TN has the luxury of having two great combination restaurant/breweries within walking distance of each other – Blackstone and Bosco’s. While Blackstone is great, Bosco’s Nashville Brewing has the edge in terms of food. Nestled in the heart of the charming little neighborhood of Hillsboro Village, right near Vanderbilt University and Medical Center, Bosco’s offers creative, fine cuisine and excellent beer brewed on the premises. The food at Bosco’s is very good and reasonably priced. You might start dinner with an order of smoked duck spring rolls with Szechwan chili sauce, or an abundant order of delicately breaded fried artichoke hearts dusted with parmesan. Of the entrees, standouts include the Wood Oven Planked Salmon, always perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the Smoked Double Cut Pork Chop with a wonderful chile and coffee bean barbecue sauce. Pizzas, a house specialty, are cooked in a brick oven and topped in an array of tempting ways, ranging from Santa Fe shrimp to the very nice pesto, spinach, and artichoke-centered Calzone de Bosco. Pastas and sandwiches are also both interesting and high quality, making Bosco’s a great place for lunch as well as dinner. The beer selection is impressive, and Bosco’s house-brewed creations are marvelous. The signature Flaming Stone beer is always a great bet. Bosco’s offers an array of styles and tastes to please any beer connoisseur. The atmosphere at Bosco’s is, like its menu, a perfect mix of classy and casual, making it a great place to relax after work or to take a date.

Hearty Comfort Food At Lucky Dill Deli In Palm Harbor, FL

lucky dill deliI would tell anyone who has ever been to a New York deli for a pastrami sandwich to step into Lucky Dill Deli in Palm Harbor, FL. The food is amazing and the portions are huge! Two can share an entrée. Free dessert, New York Cheesecake, is offered when you purchase a beverage. The restaurant also offers outdoor specials. The “Bigger Better Burger” is only five dollars. A half-pound burger and a beer is only six dollars. The taste is fantastic! Only the best food is served here. My favorite is the pastrami on toasted rye bread, with coleslaw of course. It is the biggest, juiciest sandwich you can buy. Customers can enjoy breakfast here, too. Five-dollar weekday omelettes and six-dollar weekend benedicts will keep you coming back week after week. There is also a pastry bar with fresh baked cakes and cookies. You will find something for everyone young and old alike at the Lucky Dill. Make sure you come hungry! The filling food is made from scratch on a daily basis and is served hot. This is comfort food at its best! My husband and I found this restaurant by chance about two years ago. Until then we had not had good pastrami in Tampa Bay. Now, we come back to Lucky Dill Deli at least three times a month. The atmosphere is family oriented. The staff is happy and always ready to pile on the food. You should bring family and all your friends. No need to make a reservation!

A Taste Of Tradition At Indian Flavors In Bellingham, WA

Posted by Jordan G. on June 14, 2010
Eating & Drinking Places / No Comments

indian flavorsIf you are looking for great Indian food in Bellingham, WA, Indian Flavors is the place to go. I drove by this place a couple of times and decided it was time to try it. Although I did not make it in time for the buffet, which is only ten dollars a plate during lunch hours, I did manage to swing by for dinner with my friends. We are vegetarians, so we decided to order the Shahi Paneer, Chana Masala (Chickpeas) and the Naans. Naans were two dollars apiece, well worth the quality and great taste. They came out very tender- the best naan I have ever tasted! They also specialize in garlic naan as well, which is a must-try for any naan bread lover. Also, the curries are served in small steel Indian traditional bowls, which are, for the most part, traditional. This shows that they aim to make the experience as authentic as possible. When the curries came to us, they smelled very delicious. The portion size looked very small, but it turned out to be enough for the three of us. The chickpeas were very good and had a lot of flavor. The Shahi paneer also had cheese that was very fresh, supple and tender. It just melted in our mouths. There were not many workers at the place, but they were very quick in their service and came to check up often. The inside of the restaurant uses traditional pictures and showcases traditional music and video, which is a must for any Indian restaurant. It is a great place to eat! I would recommend it to anyone! To find more unique restaurants like this, visit globalYP.net, an online directory.
