| Vince's Gallery Restr & Lou | Muncie, IN | |
|
Located at the Muncie airport. Great place to fly into for lunch
or dinner. Great view of the planes and runways. Covered in aircraft
memorvillia. Vince's is probably the nicest restaurant
in Muncie. It is a little pricy though. Expect to spend around
$10 for Lunch (sandwich chichen, burger, salads) and $25 to $30
for dinner each (steaks, seafood, fish). The kids will love to
watch the planes! The food is GREAT! the service can be somewhat
slow if they are busy.

| China Inn | Shelbyville, IN | |
|
Typical Chinese restaurant. Mugu gi pan (sp)(white meat chicken
in chinese veggys) is good. Also the general toas chichen (fried
chicken in sweet sauce - spicy) is good. They offer a buffet at
lunch. Comes with rice or noodles (choice), drink and fortune
cookie. Price for items runs $4.95 to $7.95 for most entrees.
Service was good. Food was hot and plentiful. One of the better
resturants in Shelbyville.

| Golden Corral Steakhouse | Shelbyville, IN | |
|
Good buffet! This is a great value and plenty of food here. The
buffet is full of choices and offers hot food. Salad bar portion
is the best. Chicken and veggies from the hot side. The buffet
also includes bread and dessert bar. Kids will love the ice cream
machine with two flavors (or combined) to choose from. Watch
out for the rolls! They are good! You also get a large bottomless
beverage. Clean-up can be slow here (dirty tables) as I have had
to push the plates aside from the previous troff eaters. Go hungry.....!

| Artist Colony Inn | Nashville, IN | |
|
One of the better restaurants in Brown County! Country decorated
with a nice fireplace and hearth. Open for Breakfast, Lunch and
Dinner. Can be busy at times especially in the spring and fall.
Lunch is typical sandwich fare, with about 10 to choose from -
the Tenderloin was good. Several soups and salads also. Dinner
is like a Cracker Barrel only better. The pot roast was awesome!
I have had the chicken in plum sauce before also and it was very
good. Nice warm cozy atmosphere to enjoy dinner. Worth the visit!

| Mark Pi's Chinese Restaurant | Columbus, IN | |
|
I agree, this is the best chinese place in Columbus! Great service
and good food here! Located in the mall. Dinner entrees run about
$8.95, with drink, a little over 10 bucks total. The kids will
enjoy the huge fish tank! All items served with rice. Broccoli
Chicken was superb! Casual Chinese with GREAT service....

| La Margarita | Indianapolis, IN | |
|
Nicely decorated with the true Mexican look. One of the better
Mexican restaurants in Indianapolis. The margaritas at lunch
time where just so, so. Jose Curveo from the liquor store is better.
The chips and salsa are authentic and good. The quesadilla I ordered
was GREAT. Also enchiladas are good serviced with beef, cheese
or chicken. Entrees are priced around $6 with an endless beverage.
Overall this restaurant is one of the better.

| O C White's Seafood & Sprirts | Saint Augustine, FL | |
|
Quaint Resturant fashioned in 17-18th Century. Eat inside or
outside. They offer happy hour specials and an early bird menu
if you don't mine eating early (saves $). Open for lunch or
dinner. Steaks, Pasta, Seafood and Fish is served here. I had
the shrimp and it was mouthwatering. If you eat outside in the
yard, you are within viewing distance of the back bay and the main
draw bridge. The Grouper-in-paradise is also very good served
with pasta. The place can be busy so go early. Enjoy!

| Sonnys Real Pit | Ocala, FL | |
|
For authentic barbecue beef, pork, chicken, and ribs, head to
Sonny’s! The bbq lunch and dinner plates are brimming with meat
slow-cooked over wood-fired pits served with french fries,
coleslaw, and garlic bread. Then you choose and apply the sauce
however you want; hot, sweet or hickory smoked. If you have a lighter
appetite they also have smoked turkey, sandwiches and burgers,
or Sonny’s salad bar. Dine-in or take-out. They also offer catering.
You won't go away hungry!

| Bravo! Restorante | Jacksonville, FL | |
|
This UPSCALE restaurant is downtown in the Adam's Mark Hotel.
We walked in and the piano was playing, and a server was singing.
It wasn't very crowded. The room was a little less than half
full at 8 p.m. on a Friday. Music is supposed to be a key part of Bravo.
The servers are trained vocalists.
<br>
The wine list is mostly domestic than Italian wines; prices are
mostly in the $20s, $30s and $40s.
<br>
The menu, which changes a little every few months, is Northern
Italian. It lists seven appetizers, $7 to $10. Beef Carpaccio
with orange basil fennel slaw, shaved reggiano, capers and olive
oil ($9) sounded good. So did the Ahi Tuna Tower ($10) with avocado,
mango, tapenade, basil oil and balsamic syrup. Our choices were
excellent.
<br>
The wife and I split a Caesar salad ($6), and it's certainly
different than the salad that has become a standard in restaurants
elsewhere.
<br>
Wood Roasted Indian River Clams ($9) -- we could have gotten mussels
-- featured 10 small clams in what was described as a garlic cream.
It was more of a wine broth, but it was garlicky and really wonderful.
Bravo! is not shy about the garlic. This could have been too strong
for some people. I thought it was wonderful. The rest of the menu
has about 20 entrees. There are plenty of interesting dishes,
such as Orecchiette, Broccoli Rabe, Hot and Sweet Sausage ($12)
and Wood Grilled Veal Chop, Truffle Gnocchi, Green Beans, Barolo
Wine Sauce ($28).
<br>
You don't have to spend a lot if you don't want to. The
pasta dishes start at $10. For dessert, I recommend the Tiramisu
($7). It was the world's best! Somewhat expensive but worth
the experience.

| Smoky Mountain Brewery | Gatlinburg, TN | |
|
This Microbrewery offers many selections of handcrafted beers
to choose from. A unique restaurant featuring wood roasted steaks
and entrees, pizza, calzones, fresh baked breads, burgers,
sandwiches & more in a lodge atmosphere. Fun atmosphere.
Food served hot and plentiful. Service was good considering
they were busy. If you want to try a few beers before settling on
just one, I recommend you get the flight. You can mix and match
~ 4-6 beers. All around great place to go!

| RYAN'S STEAKHOUSE | Lexington, KY | |
|
Awesome salad bar! This is a huge buffet with lots of choices.
Food is generally good (although I have tried some that was a bit
overcooked). If your hungry this is a great place to go! Steak
was prepared to my liking. It was also juicy and tasty. Great for
kids as they can have anything from pizza to ice cream if they want.

| Las Brisas | Laguna Beach, CA | |
|
Great place to enjoy Mexican food in Laguna Beach. On the cliff
overlooking the ocean and Dana Point! Always a great dining experience
at Las Brisas. Romantic place to take a date and relax... and also
enjoy a sunset. This resturant specializes in Mexican Food.
Watch out for the HUGE portions.... However, they also have excellent
seafood and GREAT margaritas! Excellent service, worth the
money and the visit.

| Black Angus ( Stuart Anderson's | Lake Forest, CA | |
|
Great steak! Stuart Anderson does steak right. Also known as
The Cattle Company. This restaurant seemed even better. I've
always had a great meal here. Many appetizers to choose from.
Comes with salad bar also. The Prime rib is excellent. Careful!
watch out for the combo meals.... You may not be able to walk after
dinner. Or you may not even have room for desert. If you do, I recommend
the carrot cake.

| Souplantation | Tustin, CA | |
|
This place is my favorite for salads! One of the best (did I say
FRESH! and no preservatives). Massive salad bar, pasta bar,
soup bar, breads bar (don't forget the fresh baked MUFFINS
- yum!), and desserts...did I miss anything. The quality is outstanding
for a buffet type of restaurant such as this. The price is fair!
Bring the whole family, you'll be glad you did!

| Mark's Feed Store Bar-B-Q | Louisville, KY | |
|
Marks Barb-Q is a great place to go for BBQ! This chain has been
there quite a few years. It's the best barb-Q for the area.
Good family atmosphere with reasonable prices. Mondays they
offer free desert with a meal or sandwich. Onion straws are the
Great! Pulled pork the best I have had in a while (compared to Sonny's).
Bottomless huge drinks served with your meals. Worth a visit.

| Sonny's Bar-B-Q | Tallahassee, FL | |
|
This BBQ is one of the best! Great place for the locals. Good
family atmosphere with reasonable prices. Several meat choices
and ways it is served. All smoked in flavor that you put the sauce
on after it arrives (choice of four - what the Flame-in one!).
Good salad bar or Potato with meat on top available. Comes with
huge bottomless drinks. Service is great and quick!Cheap and
good. You'll enjoy the Q!

| Cheddar's Casual Cafe | Peoria, IL | |

Good place to grab a burger! The service is great
and the food is well priced. Choice of appetizers and desserts.
You can even get a good steak for about $12. Slow during the week
but I have visited on the weekend and it get's busy. Full menu
items beef, chicken and sandwiches. Compares to Applebee's.
Bar with wine menu also. Good meal, good price!
