Wow are we stuffed! We just ate lunch at the Sawmill Tap Room, located on Lead Mine Road at Sawmill Road. We hadn’t previously been here for lunch and thought we’d check it out since we were looking for some good burgers and sandwiches that went beyond both fast food or chain restaurant styles. It’s [Continue]

Last week for a little fun night out, we went out to eat at the Grand Asia Buffet on Six Forks Road in the Celebration Station area. The restaurant looks pretty big from outside and we’d heard the food was good. We love Chinese food, so what could be better than buffet-style Chinese? We arrived [Continue]

Japanese food was on the menu last night! Since it’s a popular restaurant, we decided to make reservations. Good thing because when we arrived, they were already packed out. There are three Kanki locations in the Raleigh-Durham area; last night we ate at the Old Wake Forest Road restaurant. The fun begins as soon as [Continue]

We’re on a quest to find some great-tasting NY Pizza. You know the kind: the slices are so big that you have to fold it in half, all the grease runs down your hand to your wrist, the cheese is ooey gooey on top of a great red sauce on that oh-so-thin crust. Mmmm makes [Continue]

On Friday night we braved the cold and snow to head out to Savoy for a nice, romantic dinner. We’d been once before just for dessert and enjoyed the atmosphere, so this time we wanted the whole dining experience. Savoy is a smaller restaurant tucked into a shopping center, but it’s super convenient to get [Continue]

So we were sitting around a few nights ago, wondering what to do for the evening. We didn’t feel like watching another movie and definitely didn’t feel like hitting up the mall. We decided to meet up with some friends downtown and the unanimous vote was for the Busy Bee Cafe. I’d never been before [Continue]

On Saturday night, we wanted some calzones!!! We decided to hit up Stromboli’s on Spring Forest Road, where we’ve eaten a few times before and found their food to be pretty good. When it comes to hit-or-miss food experiences, Saturday night was a miss! We called ahead and ordered a calzone with pepperoni and sausage. [Continue]

Mmm, want a slice of hot, gooey cheesy pizza? Yes please! We love to eat pizza in my family. It’s a great quick meal on those busy nights when you don’t have time to cook or if you’ve had  a long week and just want to relax during the evening and not have to cook [Continue]

On Friday night my man and I decided on Applebee’s for dinner. It’s in a real convenient location for us: right at Triangle Town Center off of Old Wake Forest Road and Capital Blvd. (map) It was pretty early when we arrived – just after 5 or so. It had already gotten dark and chilly [Continue]

We love us some good Mexican food! There’s several Mexican restaurants in the North Raleigh area but one place we go back to often is Toreros Mexican Restaurant located at 4721 Atlantic Avenue. It’s pretty close to several main roads and is easy to get to. Always plenty of parking and seating, even on busy [Continue]
