McDonalds No Longer Has A Stake In Chipotle

Didn't anyone get the memo? McDonalds hasn't had anything to do with Chipotle in years! Just wanted to get that out of the way. When I first visited Chipotle, for … more

Friedpez reviewed Turkish Cuisine. December 14, 2008

I've had it a few times, and it's okay.

I'll admit that I've only had Turkish food from a handful of restaurants in Northern California. I've tried many items, and while I did enjoy most of the food, I prefer the cuisine of neighboring countries … more

Friedpez reviewed Pakistani Food. December 13, 2008

Almost like Persian food, but a hundred times spicier!

I have had Pakistani food only a handful of times, but I can safely say its good but extremely spicy. So much so, in fact, that you'll need to order tons of their specialty breads, naan, to cool off your … more

devora reviewed Trader Joe's. December 13, 2008

There's a reason my friends call me a Trader Ho

As the headline states, yes, there's a reason why my friends call me a Trader Ho. It's because, well, I am. I'm a ho for Trader Joe's, and I'm not afraid to admit it (I'm also a Cost-Ho, but … more

avantchicago reviewed Applebee's. December 13, 2008

Are There Better Places?

In general and if they're an option local places do it better then Applebees. This goes for all the chain eateries. As a former employee (cook) of both chains (Applebees) and local spots, small businesses … more

Skidmore reviewed Chipotle. December 13, 2008

Yummy burritos!

Yes they may be owned by McDonalds, but do not hold that against them! I'm sure most of you are all familiar with this wonderful burrito chain by now. To me there is no better place for lunch. Wha … more

LingEatsCake reviewed Quaker Oats. December 13, 2008

Best store-bought oatmeal (surprisingly!)

Simple Harvest Multigrain Hot Cereal is a new line of hot cereals from Quaker. Like its other oatmeal products, these also come in separate, single-serve packets. The base is a mix of wheat, oatmeal, … more

Friedpez reviewed Lebanese Food. December 13, 2008

More than just your standard Arabic fare.

I love Lebanese food because it uses traditional Arabic foods as its base but varies them with its own Mediterranean alterations. Also, it is generally agreed that Lebanese food is very healthy (in appropriate … more

Friedpez reviewed Tunisian Cuisine. December 13, 2008

One of the best and most memorable, thanks to Tunisian harissa!

The few days I spent in Tunisia were among the best from any of my vacations, not only because of the country's history and culture, but because of Tunisian cuisine. It's absolutely delicious, but not … more

stephaniezhu reviewed Ice Cream Sandwiches. December 13, 2008

I don't know what it is...but they're addicting

I don't know what the hell it is about ice cream sandwiches specifically that are so addicting. Maybe the implication of "sandwich" makes me feel like I'm eating something much more healthy than … more

Friedpez reviewed Persian Food. December 13, 2008

I suppose I'm slightly biased.

I'll admit that coming from an Iranian family I am slightly biased towards liking Persian food. But if you think about it, not all people enjoy their own ethnicity's cuisine (do all Thais like Thai food?) … more

Great place to eat for $10!

A friend and I went here for lunch one day for a "girls day out." It was the first time I'd been there so I wasn't sure what to order. I went ahead and ordered he Chicken Penne. And … more

Friedpez reviewed El Torito. December 13, 2008

Not a fan of their food, but their drinks? Another story.

El Torito claims to serve authentic Mexican food, but ask any Mexican for their opinion, and they'll pretty much laugh in your face. While the restaurant does serve huge platters, many of their ingredients … more

LingEatsCake reviewed Fage Yogurt. December 13, 2008

Fatty Greek yogurt

I first found out about Fage yogurt from a health-conscious roommate back in college. When I was younger, I always hated the watery, sugary plastic containers of Dannon my friends ate. But … more

Skidmore reviewed Henry's Hunan Restaurant. December 13, 2008

I wanted greasy noodles. And all I got was the grease.

Let me start by saying I am a fan of junk food. Grease, butter, sugar, and salt all make my top ten list of favorite ingredients. But Henry's Hunan was a test even for me. I recently … more

Friedpez reviewed Subway. December 12, 2008

Their five-dollar footlongs saved them.

Subway, for a long time, was down in the negatives in my book. It was just plain nasty! But then along came Jared, who claimed to have lost 245 pounds simply by eating only Subway sandwiches, and suddenly … more

Berkeley's Best Ice Cream Shop

Maple Sugar is the best!

At college I eat this pretty much every day for breakfast. It's healthy, it's filling, and it's delectable. Mmmm.

FashionKitty reviewed Eggnog. December 12, 2008

A delicious holiday beverage

Until last night I was one of the only persons on the planet who hadn't tasted egg nog. I know, crazy isn't it! I was kind of turned off by the whole idea. I mean, it's a thick milky beverage and … more

ProfessionalLush reviewed Eggnog. December 12, 2008

Thick, Creamy, Nogg-y Goodness

My favorite part about egg nog (besides egg nog milkshakes) is the fact that it is so thick with creamy, eggy goodness that it coats everything it touches in sticky, fragrant sweetness. I loved … more

The tastiest Japanese curry rice seasoning mix around!

Friedpez reviewed McDonald's. December 11, 2008

Somehow gross and delicious.

Most people who are remotely concerned for their well-being would avoid McDonald's altogether. But that doesn't mean I won't pop in now and then! I gotta admit than in college … more
