  • Caribou Coffee at Mall of America

    Posted on February 11, 2011 by Gav

    I want hot chocolate with Soymilk please. Lately I been having coffee or hot chocolate when I go to the Mall of America for my walks. It nice to walk there in the wintertime, they had their engineering jobs today working on a couple of things. At least it was pretty easy to work around it. We decided to stop at Caribou at the end of our walk, which we often will do. We both order white chocolate I ordered it with soy. The young man at the end of the line asked me if I wanted whip cream or if that would not be good for me. I told him yeah I take a little bit. I can have milk just not a whole glass full with out trouble. He got it, and gave me a little bit of whip cream they did a great job today.

  • No I do not want croutons

    Posted on February 5, 2011 by Gav

    On Tuesday we went to Little Six Casino Restaurant for dinner. I ordered the bison burger with out the bun. I told the waitress I was allergic to gluten. I took my husband salad, I like salads, and I will eat them if since he wont. Well when she brought the salad and dinner rolls, she brought croutons in a bowl and told me she wasn’t sure if I wanted them. I told her no, I can not have them. The food is good at the Casino, the staff know us pretty well. They treat dad good and my husband and I good. There are no visible ceiling fans, I wonder if there are any there.

  • Anne’s Homegrown Rice Past and Cheddar

    Posted on January 5, 2011 by Gav

    I have had to make the dreaded switch from eating wheat to needing to be Gluten Free. I have dreaded this because last time I tried to be gluten free because my asthma gotten very bad. Well after my last dental surgery I couldn’t eat stuff with wheat or gluten. I was feeling good until I went and added back a bunch of wheat in my diet and ended up having a long asthma episode which I get when my allergies are being out of control. I was able to link it to what i added back into my diet very easily. I have tried other gluten free foods and have not liked it. Thankfully it seems things are changing.

    Tonight we tried Anne’s Mac and cheese. It actually tasted good. The texture was not offensive. It tasted almost as good as real Mac and cheese that my hubby and I like and I am pretty sure I can get the cheese we like and make it taste just as good. It was good it did taste like what it was advertised as.

  • Poor Richards in Bloomington

    Posted on November 27, 2010 by Gav

    Tonight my husband and I ate at Poor Richards off of Normandale and 494. We have been there a few times, and there’s really only one dish we like. Poor Richards is owned by Champs, but they are more of a budget dining with quality foods. My husband and I both order the Bison Chili. It was served hot, and with sour cream and cheese with chives. We forgot to ask for no sour cream on my husband Chili but he didn’t complain and ate it anyways. Which is good I offer to take it from him. Now if I had some scanner softwarethat could scan food I would show you how yummy it looks.
    The only reason why we go is for their chili. The menu prices are a little higher then Perkins, or Bakersquare. I believe its more expensive then Don Pablos which is a place we frequent. The food is worth it if you can spend the money on it. The wait staff are friendly.

  • Taco Bell in Albert Lea MN

    Posted on September 3, 2010 by Gav

    I am sure there is more than one taco bell there but I can not remember the street, it was the one where the quick trip gas station. Well we got there and order. We found out about the meat and beans there, to make sure they was still vegetarian. It was determined that I could eat everything except their meat product. So I ordered a number 1 and asked for a soft bean taco. They gave me beef instead so I had to bring it back up. It took several different ways under Sunday to get their line prep to get it right. I felt bad for the manger. It is amazing how people feel the need to defend or protect me that I do not know. I wouldn’t say I act very meek, because I am not, but I have a gentleness about me. Maybe that what people see and makes them want to help me. One of their customers said a regular taco using beans. This did the trick for the line preps. I used to eat taco bell a lot when I was younger, and had them a few times when I had a Disney vacations they got my order right. In the last year everytime I go to a taco bell they never get it right there is always one thing wrong with my order. Over all the food was good, it was prepared fast. The biggest issue was them getting the order wrong the first time.

  • Surabhi Indian Cuisine

    Posted on August 22, 2010 by Gav

    Last night Hubby and I ate at Surabhi Indian cuisine on 98th st near Lyndale in Bloomington MN. I have to say I was very disappointed in our waiter he really missed the mark. My husband and I visit regularly we enjoy the food and its normally always pleasant. We were seated at a table, and our waiter took or drink orders that went just fine. When it was time to order the food that’s when it all fall apart. My husband and I share a meal, because their small portion is still too much for the both of us to eat. We could do one small portion for both of us but I always order the dinner portion. It’s plenty big enough for my husband and I and well about the same as eating out at a other restaurant. The waiter rolled his eyes, at us when we ordered the dinner, and told him we would share that.. He ignored us the whole time almost and avoided us every chance he got. Now I do not mind having my pop go empty this is not a big deal to me because I drink fast, my hubby on the other hand drinks slowly. When he needed, his pop refilled and tried to get the guys attention he turned his back on us, or went and cleaned another table although he clearly saw my hubby needed a refill. Then when it was time to check out he ignored us again and the owner had to come and complete the bills. I was not happy with this attitude. His attitude towards hubby and I sucked. Maybe he needs to find a new
    local jobs that would better suit him.
    The food was served hot and good. It tasted wonderful. We order lamb, which is amazing how strong spices don’t ruin the taste of it. It was well prepared.

  • So Yummy, you don’t want to take any home

    Posted on July 25, 2010 by Gav

    Last night my husband and I wanted to try a restaurant we haven’t ate at before. We remember there was a restaurant in a nearby city, which a waitress recommended. We food it, and the food was so yummy, you don’t want to take any home, the place we went was Red Moon Chinese Buffet in Eden Prairie MN. The food tasted fresh and smelled good too.
    Well we didn’t find it where we thought it was, so we called them for some direction. The guy didn’t sound too sure from where we were at but he got it right. He was very friendly and helpful. We got there and were seated.
    I did my normal thing of let them know about the allergies before ordering. When I had told them I had pork allergies they had told me, I could have anything on their menu except for a couple of things or anything with pork included. I found out most of their dishes us chicken for lard. Eggrolls were the other thing I had to stay away from which was fine by me.
    I had ordered the mild garlic chicken. Hubby had ordered the medium garlic chicken. The food took a little while to get out, but we was hungry so it probably felt longer then it really was to get out to us. When it did arrive, it was hot, not just hot but steaming hot, and oh my goodness it smelt yummy. You could smell the garlic and other fresh ingredients. The chicken I had was well prepared, and honestly even if I was looking for something to complain about I wasn’t going to find it with the food. The chickens was pleasantly tender. Hubby beef was done pleasantly too.
    We started eating and the food was hot not spicy hot but hot. The mild hot garlic was just right for me. I am not a big fan of spicy you could taste the fresh garlic, and onions. It was good and this is my lunch today I can’t wait!
    My hubby couldn’t stop talking about the food. We will probably be regular customers there. There food was good. It was hard to control our portion, both hubby and I are on diets.
    The lighting in the place was good, it wasn’t Savoy house lighting but it worked. The restaurant looked clean, and the décor was not in a bad state. I liked the picture my hubby and I was seating under it was pretty. The service here was good and I would recommend them to anyone. The cost is fair for what they serve.

  • Don Pablos in Eden Prairie

    Posted on July 20, 2010 by Gav

    I will say this was a hard little place to find the first time, but we found it. We meet a couple of friends last night, and it was a good place to pick. I asked my normal questions because I am not just going to assume that they are like the location my husband and I go to weekly with Dad. It’s been a few months since we have been able to meet up with our friends and it was nice meeting them there. It was good going out with out dad with us too, the wife and I spoke some, and he and his friend spoke to I wonder if they might of talked about extenze or anything like it. His wife and I talked a little bit about having kids, (laughing) I told her if we had them at the same time they would be friends but my kids will find all the fun bugs to play with if they anything like me.
    Dinner was good and our waiter did a great job at getting us what we needed or wanted. I ordered 3 enchilada, 2 tacos plate combo thing, and hubby had his chilli and they had fajitas. Everyone seemed happy with the service and food. I think the biggest problem was finding the place or how to get there because it visible from the high way but not exactly easy to get to

  • Apple Bees Dinner In Bloomington Mn

    Posted on July 12, 2010 by Gav

    Tonight I didn’t feel like making dinner, I am simply not feeling well. This summer has been very bad for allergies. I needed to get some groceries and beverages for the family, so I had to go out. I would have much rather stayed home and slept but that wasn’t going to happen. Well we stopped at the store and picked up the grocery we needed, and because dad wanted a hamburger, I had suggested Apple Bees.
    At first the waitress did good and was attentive, but suddenly it was like she dropped the ball somewhere. Here service wasn’t very good. What bugged me most is that when dad and hubby wanted a refill on a cherry limeaide she did not tell us there would be a additional charge. She had forgotten to bring my garlic bread with my dinner, and when she brought it out she only brought one tiny piece which last time I had the same dish I had 2 pieces. I do not know what happened between the first time and the second time where she took the order.
    We paid for our bill and lift. We weren’t exactly very happy with the service there tonight but that okay we’ve had worst waitress.

  • Papa John’s

    Posted on July 9, 2010 by Gav

    The other day we decided to use a coupon my hubby got from Papa John’s pizza here in Bloomington. I ordered extra butter and dipping sauce they got the extra dipping sauce but not the butter. They actually gave me more dipping sauce then I wanted. I am not upset it happens sometimes, all I care about is did my pizza get her nice and hot. The pizza arrived hot and early, I was surprised when my phone rang. I had my blinds closed I wonder what wood blinds would look like, because I had my blinds closed I didn’t see him coming.
    We ordered the thin crust pizza, and it was nice and crispy. It was hot and it tasted good, but not enough crust to dip in my garlic butter. It was good and I am glad we ordered out that night.
