“Small and white. Clean and bright. You look happy to meet me.” Victory’s Banner reminded me of the song “Edelweiss” from the “Sound of Music” as I walked into the small but sunny and mellow place. The waitresses were garbed in sari’...

Large portions of everything. Breakfast served throughout the day. Surly waitress. Diner feel. Reminded me ever so slightly of Ed Debevic’s. Looks like a shack found in a rural village of Central America, from the outside at least. Sole Costa Rican restaurante in all of Chicago. Family o...

Situated in a very residential area, this cozy Italian restaurant looks like it is on the ground floor of a home, like a flat. The cooking parallels its image. And in a great way, actually, unlike the other Italian restaurant known to be “best in the city” for its home-style cookin...

If you’re ever in St. Louis and are looking for some yummy Vietnamese food, Pho Grand is it! I was surprised that there are even ethnic restaurants in this city, but after my second visit to Pho Grand and comparing it with another V-restaurant just down the street, I definitely recommend...

My second time at Viceroy’s, I came to see what the lunch buffet was all about. Although there seemed to be a wide range of dishes to choose from, none of them were exactly what we had wanted. So we asked for a menu instead, and they happily accepted our request! I am definitely a...

Hai Yen was by far the cleanest restaurant I have ever been to in V-Town. Upon walking in, you see very simple, cherry wood colored tables and chairs, each table decorated with a vase of a single pink carnation and baby’s breath. The tables are spread out with enough space between them, ...

This was my first time at the Wabash branch of the Bongo Room and although the location is different, I was expecting to find the same menu as the branch on Milwaukee. But I could not find the CHOCOLATE TOWER! I was devastated. This could hav...

Fabulous Brazilian buffet. Everything from top sirloin wrapped in bacon to filet mignon and an amazing salad bar for $20 (lunch only, dinner’s a different story). Chic and trendy atmosphere, pleasant service, and a great view of the salivating passersby, Brazzaz delivers. My only minor g...

I like the ambience of Francesca’s more than the food… The food was good, but it didn’t wow me as I had expected from one of the “best” Italian restaurants in the city. Maybe a case of having too high expectations? Or their selling point is that the food tastes li...

This place literally looks like a shack on the outside right now with its camouflage olive green painted exterior and wooden boards guarding the entrance. I could hardly make out the “Bongo Room” sign. But when the place is packed at 9:30a.m. on a Saturday morning, you know it̵...
