I could live here. This place really exists. I’ve seen it with the whites of my own eyes. As seen on The Travel Channel, the world famous MUSEO del JAMON or loosely translated ‘Ham Museum’ you just gotta see and smell it for yourself. This was THE kobe beef LONG before kobe-style beef became popular with acorn and hazelnut free range grazing. When in Madrid eat and drink like the Madrilenos. Feel free to move about the country.

Please RATE THIS REVIEW by giving me a THUMBS UP here on Facebook No Reservations: Hungry for More inspired by Anthony Bourdain and The Travel Channel.

South of the Border, Paradise style. Newly renovated, Paradise South of the Border is an add-on to the Paradise Grille bar, and the neighbors are really happy. It is a spacious new Tex-Mex Mexican restaurant; eat-in or available outdoor tables if you wish. They also have a meeting room available at no extra cost (min 12 people). The service is very fast very friendly, and the location is very clean. Very inexpensive and great for business lunch, family date or dinner.

Chinese-American Dream

This place has been here forever, well ever since I have been here, and that is at least 11 years. They never mess up an order and they serve good hot fast Chinese-American style inexpensive Chinese food. They deliver ALWAYS fresh food in about 15 minutes if you are lucky enough to live or work nearby. The driver is a very nice man. The owners are good people just trying to hash out a good American living. Food is yummy and fast and I’m delighted.

OK I must confess I’m a little soft on BR. Yes, it was my first real job. I was an original BR scooper-gal. I LOVE BR. No ice cream joint can compare. I learned so much about ice cream. After all it was my JOB to try every single ONE of those 31 rotating flavors every month. But boy did I ever have big FOREarms! Recently I just had my birthday and was SO happy to get my Birthday Club email and print out my coupon for my FREE ice cream. I have to go there soon before the month is over as my coupon expires soon. I am so excited to go there that I chose to have my official birthday cake from BR today.

Oh my! Is it JUST ME or does my birthday cake spell Happy Bit@hday? OK I didn’t notice that while I was cutting that while I being so gracious. Greg, what is up with that??? Was that you or Kenny that did that? And whose idea was this anyways? I even ATE that cake. Ha ha very funny guys. Now I see it. You stinkers I did not even notice that until now#?! Ha ha very funny.

Fat Donkey & a diet coke

Please visit No Reservations: Hungry for More on Facebook inspired by Anthony Bourdain and rate this review with a THUMBS UP! and see the full video and all the pics.

Humorously ironic as Cazadores means ‘The deer hunter’ this restaurant offers vegetarian meals. This is a testament that they will make sure everyone is happy especially with their inexpensive quick meals, kids menu and the fact that they tout they have “The Best Texas Margaritas this side of the border!”.

Feeling a little under the weather or just want some anti-flu insurance? THIS WILL CURE WHAT AILS YOU: Sopa de pollo, a traditional Mexican soup made with chunks of chicken, rice, tomatoes, onions, cilantro,and topped with pico de gallo and sliced avocados.

The cheesy friends always get the Chilaquiles: corn tortilla strips cooked in a rich sauce with chunks of beef or chicken and topped with melted cheese. Served with rice & beans.

My sister in law always gets ‘Speedy with beans’ which is the Speedy Gonzales No.1: one taco, one enchilada, choice of rice or beans. Andale Andale, Yipa Yipa!

The dear husband always gets the ‘Numero Once de pollo’ which is #11, one burrito, taco and enchilada. And one can never go wrong (my favorite) with a little fat donkey which is: a Burrito Grande One GIANT burrito filled with your choice of shredded chicken or ground beef. Extremely nice to the tummy and wallet.

Top shelf quick chicken biscuits, chicken wraps or sandwiches when you need to eat on the go. Always made fresh daily and nutritious and ahem! Healthy. Lovely coffee, and great for office breakfasts to go. Nice for those who have dietary restrictions, everyone will be happy and healthy. Love them! Kid friendly menus too.

At Longhorn again, naturally. We just HAD to go check our their new specials. New Bacon-Wrapped Whiskey Sirloin.? A juicy top sirloin, wrapped with hickory-smoked bacon, grilled and topped with sweet, barrel-aged whiskey glaze and a bacon-wrapped roasted onion. Then on to the Parmesan Crusted Chicken. Two juicy chicken breasts, grilled and topped with a parmesan cheese and garlic crust. Served with choice of two sides.Their New Grilled Vegetable Salad is Crisp romaine tossed with balsamic vinaigrette and topped with fresh grilled vegetables, fire-roasted corn, red onion, roma tomatoes, asparagus and feta cheese. We just could not resist,espcially with that lovely gift card we had.

Biltmore Ballrooms

Please visit Anthony Bourdain No Reservations: Hungry for More on Facebook and rate this review. Please give me a THUMBS UP!

The stuff dreams are made of, if you are fortunate enough to be invited, that is, to an event at the restored Biltmore Ballrooms; with live music, ice and chocolate fountains, decadence beyond your wildest dreams. Exquisite plaster relief ceilings and marble everywhere you definitely feel you are royalty or noble blood and can dance the night away. Just don’t turn into a pumpkin.

biltgeo_14


“Built in 1924, The Biltmore Hotel was the focal point of Atlanta’s business and social life for almost sixty years. Once publicized as “The South’s Supreme Hotel”, The Biltmore closed its doors in 1982, following changes in ownership and years of steady decline. After sixteen years of neglect and abandonment, The Biltmore underwent a total renovation in 1999, transforming the former hotel into a combination of Class A office space, retail and special event space.

biltgeo_03

With the renovation of The Georgian and Imperial Ballrooms, and now listed on The National Register of Historic Places, The Biltmore quickly recaptured its standing as one of the social and business epicenters of Atlanta. Featuring original handcrafted plaster relief ceilings, restored crystal chandeliers, Palladian windows and Tennessee marble floors, the special event space can accommodate groups from 50 to 1500 guests.”

Ready for a once in a lifetime exhilaration? You have GOT to do this! For a special birthday or anniversary, or if you are just in the San Diego or Los Angeles area, this experience was unsurpassed. My sister Wanda was having her 40th birthday and so I surprised her with a Temecula California sunrise hot air balloon ride!

hotairdfeb24a678297ae7e278b5dc05788dfbaced66

Beyond exhilarating. First of all we felt very safe as our pilot has many many years of experience. Secondly we were so sweetly surprised with the champagne, coffee, juice, fruit and sweet pastry breakfast. It really was so exciting that we needed a power nap afterwards!

“Floating over the terrain of Temecula’s wine country while enjoying the splendor of a mountain sunrise and sipping local champagne…Flights last from 50 minutes to one hour and 15 minutes.”
