BC's Pizza and Beer

Lately, I think I could eat pizza every night for dinner. But not just any pizza, pizza from BC's Pizza and Beer.

I have known that it existed for most of my life. I have driven by the place thousands of times. And it wasn't until a few weeks ago that Hubs and I decided to try it out.

It is by far one of the best pizzas I have had in a long time. I think I have become tired of the chain pizza places. It all begins to taste the same, or worse, begins to taste like not much of anything.

And just like Mad Duck, the service is great.

The next time you are in the mood for pizza (or beer), check out BC's at Shaw and Sunnyside. You won't be disappointed.

The Mad Duck-Eat Local

The Hubs and I are always looking for new places in town to eat, especially smaller, local places. We waited anxiously for The Mad Duck to open. When it finally did, it was worth the wait!

The Mad Duck is a pub located in Clovis at Willow and Herndon. The place is always busy, yet we can always find a place to sit too. The food is affordable and delicious...the burgers are awesome. The thing that has been the most impressive is the service. Most places like The Mad Duck have good food, a great selection of beverages, yet the service is horrible (I can think of 2 places right now, one in north Clovis and one in downtown Fresno). When we have gone to The Mad Duck, we have never had to hunt someone down for anything....food is always right, drinks are always filled, and we are asked several times throughout our time there if they can get us anything else, but not in an obnoxious way.

If you are looking for a fun place to hang out with some friends and some great food, check out The Mad Duck!

Mexican Food for lunch...Fajita Fiesta

Having worked at a restaurant, I am usually a little more lenient with the waiter when the restaurant is packed and they have a lot of tables. When it is the other way around, not so much.

Today at lunch, I ate at Fajita Fiesta with my mom, dad, and sister. What could be better than Mexican food for lunch on a Tuesday? In an hour, I would soon find out.

The restaurant was practically empty, even during the lunch time rush. It took 10 minutes for somebody to come greet us, give us chips and salsa and get us drinks. We ordered our food, and it took 25 minutes to get it. At that, mine and my dad's food was wrong. Overall, the food wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. And our drinks were empty most of the time.

By the time we were done with our meal, we were all extremely frustrated. I think it is going to be a very long time before I go to Fajita Fiesta again, that is, if I ever do go back. I think I may just stick to Sal's...can't beat what tastes good and what you know.

National Cheesecake Day!

Yesterday, at The Cheesecake Factory, was National Cheesecake Day. I think it is their anniversary, but am not sure. Cheesecake was only $1.50! Becky and I were suppose to go to Starbucks to hang out, but when I heard about this phenomenal deal, I sent a text right away.



Luckily, Becky likes cheesecake as much as I do! :) I had the White Chocolote Raspberry Truffle Cheesecake and she had the Adam's Fudge Ripple Peanut Butter Goodness Cheesecake (I can't remember the exact name, but it should be renamed to what I wrote...)



It was a good night, good cheesecake, and great conversation (we got there at 8:30is and left at 11:30)! To get Becky's take on the night, click here!

Medieval Times

So my hotel room is right across from Medieval Times. Although I have never been, all that i can think of when that name is mentioned is the movie Cable Guy... "Since there was no silverware in medieval times there is no silverware at medieval times." "But there is Pepsi?"

Anyways, there is also a restaurant called Pirate's Adventure...but who would go to that when they could go to Medieval Times!

I am not going to either ($40 is kinda steep for a place that doesn't have silverware) but I would choose Medieval Times over Pirate's Adventure any day.
