After lurking on Yelp excessively for years now (and discovering many amazing
places as a result) I’ve decided to finally take the plunge. Ladies and
gentlemen, I now present to you… my very first Yelp review! Please, hold your
applause.
I’ve been going to Silk City since like 2003 and for some reason I have never
written a review. Back in college, we went here all the time to go dancing.
Before they re-did the diner part, the food was really simple diner food.
Nowadays the food is a little fancier, but you still get to sit in the old
school metal diner car. I only wish there was more seating.
How many restaurants can boast that they brew their own beer and rootbeer? Not
too many, let alone - it’s in Fox, AK! This place is tucked away in a small
town, but once you step in, you know they will serve you a great dinner.
Let me first start off with saying this place has shack in its name, that means
it’s a shack guys. There’s a few Ferrell cats hanging out by their dumpster and
on their porch.
I didn’t know anything about it’s fame or reputation, but I’m sure it’s well
earned. I know the next time I’m in Baltimore I will know of at least one place
that I can certainly consider a place to grab a meal.
By Breaking Bread together we establish bonds, affirm friendships, celebrate
events and resolve differences. Despite its significance, bread is among the
most basic of prepared foods - essentially it is derived from just four
ingredients: flour, water, salt and yeast. While sourcing quality ingredients
is important, what truly separates ordinary bread from extraordinary bread is
the passion of an expert baker.
Texas red Chilli is $8.75 for a bowl. Comes with maco and cheese or white
cheddar grits. Add. $2.75 for the works and $3.25 for the cornbread with honey
butter.
I am doing this strict paleo eating thing right now (Whole30) that makes it
difficult to eat at restaurants. And being that I LOVE restaurants, this is
very hard on my life. Enter the Smack Shack to make everything all better. Like
a mom with a Band-Aid.
We stopped by again on a cold winter afternoon while passing through. We
decided to try what we saw on triple D… wings and tacos. These were
definitely amazing choices. The wings we were able to split the flavors, 6 hot
pepper and 6 jerk for $10.
As far as “smokey” (the name fits) restaurants, it wasn’t nearly as bad as most
Olive Hill restaurants are- I’m pretty sure over 80% of Olive Hill’s population
smokes. The only reason it’s not higher is because I’m including infants.
It’s hard to believe I live a mile from Smokin’ Guns and have only eaten there
twice in all these years…I guess it’s because I get some pretty good ‘que at
home.
Don’t share the cobblers. It will just cause discord among your party. There
are some things that shouldn’t be shared.
Philly Cheese Steak and Meatball Sandwich on their homemade bread.
Found Sophia’s while searching on yelp for a breakfast place. So glad we did!
It is a local restaurant that serves a delicious and affordable breakfast.
There is not a hostess to take your name, you just wait in line barely in and
mostly out of the Restaurant.
I actually forgot that we found this place because of DDD. We no longer care
about that, this place stands out like a rockstar on its own, and we adore it!
We always try to bring visitors here, and recommend it all the time.
Wonderful Onion Rings and their Super Boy Burger is fabulous! I love their
Trout Dinner!
Best cheese steaks outside of Philly itself. Good chili and the desserts are
delicious.
Down home southern cooking! Home style food, like grandma used to make.
Most people probably do not think of BBQ when they venture towards the Golden
Isles. I was staying on Jekyll Island and being so close to Brunswick, GA, it
led me on a quest to find the best Brunswick stew in the area. Not only did I
find it, but I found quite possibly my favorite BBQ place in all of Georgia.
Albuquerque’s best-kept,secret isn’t so secret anymore.
