| Mitaka Restaurant | Harrisburg, PA | |
|
This place is near the Harrisburg Mall. It's nicely decorated.
We were there for Dim Sum (no push carts). Most people love shui mai pork,
but they only offer shrimp, which tasted like imitation seafood. After
ordering a few dim sum items which were not that good, we ordered the
dragon rolls, which were not that great either. The waitress barely
speaks English. If you want to try the place with min. cost, get a http://restaurant.com
certificate (buy the certificate when they are 80% off).

We were there for dinner. The Greek lemon soup was SO thick, it was like
eating oatmeal. The duck breast was super soft, like the meat was grind
up and formed. I like it to be more meaty with a slightly chewy bite. The
chocolate cake was not that good and was pricey $6.50. I felt unsatisfied
after I ate.

We went there during Happy Hour and wanted to have dinner later. They
seated us in the dinning room and would not let us order specials from
the pub ($4.99 appetizers). The orange crush drink special is disgusting,
it's like water down Tang with vodka. Don't pay extra for the
seafood stuffed potato ($3+ w/entree, $6+w/o), there is hardly any
seafood, they just put a small amount of creamed crab soup on top of the
potato. The potato pancake was powerfully sour. Over all it was okay,
but expensive. Our waiter could be more pleasing, everything we asked
for he would say no or I will check...I would not pick this place, I was
forced to go there for a friend's b-day.

| Gertrude's Restaurant At Bma | Baltimore, MD | |
|
This is located inside the Baltimore Museum of Art (free admission).
We were there for brunch and it was very busy. The crab/mushroom filled
omelette is so good. They have a very unique menu- pancakes, soup, special
drinks...

| Cedars Restaurant | Camp Hill, PA | |

Similar to Greek Foods. It's a little pricey for what it is. For
$6 we got two meat pies, about 3" x 3" with about 1 tablespoon
of meat mixture in each. It was very dry and not that tasty. The salad
that came with the dinner was fresh, but the dressing really had no taste
(not tangy, not spicy...). The dinners had nice grilled flavors and
the rice is really good. Entrees cost between $17-$23. A belly dancer
performed during part of our meals, the music can get loud.

| Oshaka Restaurant | Springfield, VA | |
|
It's a reasonably priced place and they do have specials ($1.50
sushi)during lunch hours. The food tends to be very salty. The bathroom
was a mess, but the employees were busy chatting with each other. Service
is very slow and they don't speak English well.

| Alfred's Victorian | Middletown, PA | |

This place has slowly gone done hill. We used to go there often for our
birthdays and anniversaries. Many years ago, you would get a slice
of gourmet cheese, dried skinny bread sticks and free cordial at the
end of the meal if you happen to mention your anniversary. All the seafood,
except the shrimp in the bisque was rubbery. The best things on the menu
are the Steak Diane and the Filetto Armeno. You don't get a salad
with a $27 entree. The place was pretty empty, the seats are not comfortable
and you have to walk up a long staircase to use the toilet.

| Las Delicias Restaurant | Harrisburg, PA | |
|
This is an affordable place to try Spanish food. You order at the counter
and they bring the food to your table. The chicken stew is tender and
delicious. The pork was a little dry. All meals come with meat and rice/bean.
I would just do takeouts, since the restaurant can be loud with people
shouting Spanish back and forth.

| Confit French Bistro | Camp Hill, PA | |
|
The salads are excellent and different. The entrees are big, but the
meats are very fatty. Our food was floating in grease. We ordered two
cups of coffee and they have us a full carafe of french pressed coffee.
Our second cup was warm, so I asked the waitress to heat it cup. She brought
out a new carafe and then charged us for it. The deserts are very good.
Since this is a BYOB place, it can get loud with drunks- not recommended
for a quiet romatic diner.

| Arepa City | Harrisburg, PA | |
|
This is a good place to try something different. We ordered a variety
meat plate (pork, beef & chicken) and it was very good. They brought
out many freshly made sauces to try. Arepa is a cornmeal bread that is
thin and chewy. They have a great attitude- try it, if you don't
like it, don't pay. I did not care for the corn flan, the corn was
chewy and sticks to your teeth.

| Symposium | Lancaster, PA | |

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere. The olive/garlic paste that
comes with the free bread is very potent (not good). I ordered the duck
and the portion is very small. For $22 you get 1 breast and after you take
off the thick layer of fat and skin, there is not much left to eat. The
prime rib was filled with fat marbled in the meat, so it is very hard to
trim the fat. It was tasty and juicy. The service was professional and
friendly. We had the chocolate tort for desert and it just melts in your
mouth.

It is a nice place and the service is professional. The food is not that
great. If you want good Italian food, go to Sammy's downtown Harrisburg.

The sandwich selection is unique and tasty. They are willing to customize
your sandwich and add/remove any ingredients. Good salads too. Lately
I have noticed the reduction of meats in the sandwiches.

I love eating here, so far they have not disappointed us. We usually
order General Tao chicken and duck soup. The food is flavorful. The
Dim Sum selection is great as well (served at certain time). I would
eat here, then walk next door to Trader Joe's.

| Sushi O | Midlothian, VA | |
|
This is a nicely decorated restaurant- very modern chic. The "POWER"
sushi roll was good. The peppercorn calamari was too crunchy-hard
for my taste. I would not recommend the stir fries, they us way too much
oil.
