Good places to eat?  You cannot miss Jakeeno's!  Best veggie pizza in town.
They knew me by name.  And they have always been supportive of the
neighborhoods.  The first event I organized for Central they donated 24
pizzas.  They delivered them at intervals so that they were always hot and
fresh.  I have not had the good fortune to find one I like as well here in
Tampa.

And my son (my baby boy turned 21 yesterday - proud mama) and I used to make
our midnight runs to the White Castle on Lake Street.  I was told they had
WC in Florida once upon a time.  I miss those.  The ones in the freezer
section at the grocery store are just not the same to me.

 I just wanted to give a quick mention to Dulono's on
 Lake by Lyndale.  I used to live down the alley and
 loved the late night availability of both good
 greasy
 pizza and various other diner options and the
 atmosphere that seemed dropped from the deep south
 into uptown.

Pamela,

I had your back on the Jakeeno's pizza, but, unfortunately, you had to go
and include White Castle on your list of loves. Sliders just don't do it for
me ;-). I also happen to be an addict of the pho at Bona on Washington and
Oak at the University. They have the best pho in town. They are another
restaurant that is family owned and everyone remembers your name. Sort of
like Cheers without the beer and Kirsty Allie.

I made the trek Northeast for lunch yesterday and found the Modern 
closed for renovation until next week.  So, my collegue suggested the 
place on the corner.  At first I thought he was referring to the bar 
next door (which would've been find by me), but we ended up at Erte, 
just across University.

Wow.  Very hip.  Very yummy.  Reasonably priced.  It felt like going to 
Manhattan for lunch.

Whenever I'm working in the neighborhood ,and many times when I'm not, 
I'll head to Joey D's on 31st and 42nd St. So. for lunch.
REAL Chicago Italian roast beef sandwiches smothered in juice and 
peppers. You can get them with cheese too but I've never dared. Great fries 
and very pleasant outdoor dining area included. You've got to endure tons of 
White Sox and Bears propaganda but it's worth it.
They've lots of other Chicago eatery provender like hot dogs and pizza 
and I hear it's all good; I've just never been able to order anything but the 
sandwich.

[Mpls] Fun Neighborhood Places to Eat in Minneapolis

2002-07-11 Thread W. Brandon Lacy Campos

Andy brought up a wonderful topic: Juicy Lucys. I happen to live about four
blocks from the home of the Juicy Lucy (Matt's on 35th and Cedar  Avenue),
and I must say that Matt's is one of my favorite places to consume grease in
the city.

Last night I also had the pleasure of eating at the Chatterbox Pub. This
place is fun, especially for those of you that grew up in the 80s. You can
rent Atari games and play them while waiting for your food. You can also
rent classic board games from the 80s and before. The pub is divided into
two sides, a restaurant side and a bar side. You can order food in both
places, and they have all kinds of fun things happening there. And, joy of
joys, the Chatterbox is located just up 35th from Matt's. I believe it is on
22nd or 23rd and 35th.


I must also put a plug in to those of you living in Northeast to check out
Vo's Vietnamese just off Washington and NE Broadway Street (about a block
from 807 for you school district fiends). Vo's has some of the best spring
rolls and rice noodle salads in town (for those of you who are delighted by
Vietnamese cuisine). I've been a faithful Vo's customer since it opens its
doors in early 1995. If you stop by Vo's, and Vo is working, make sure to
tell him that Brandon sent you.

Ahhh, I just KNEW if I waited long enough, Brandon and
I would agree on something again! Vo's is fantastic. I
used to live about a block away from it and the
waitstaff used to be able to tell me what I was going
to order as soon as I walked in the door (beef fried
rice and chicken wings). It's located on the corner of
Broadway and Adams NE.

I also want to recommend The Modern Cafe and their

I drive by that place every week and every time I say I gotta check that
place out. One of these days, I am gonna do it.

I second that recommendation, but hold off visiting for a few days. I was
there last week only to discover they are closed for remodeling. They said
they would reopen on the 16th or some similar date.

Two of my favorite places are Golooney's East Coast Pizza Cafe on Hennepin
and 24th(?) and Slice of New York on Nicollet near 24th. I love the
sandwiches at Golooneys and the aroma at Slice of New York is
mouthwatering.
