I have no problem with that—I spent a wonderful Thanksgiving in an Indian restaurant in London (with someone I was falling hard for, and who is not American, both factors which helped me forget the holiday). But I still...

of you who drive, this place is very near the NJ end of the Holland Tunnel. A little tricky to find but, as someone else mentioned, it is also very close to the Newport Mall, so you can follow those signs. Pat G.

Sven & Ole’s is a true northwoods favorite. I was only there once and it was after 7 days in the BWCA living on nothing but gorp, bannock and bean. We had a very tasty garlic and tomato pizza. However, it is hard to justify...

Dena, you’re an MOT and you think that I’m of Italian descent? (BTW, I’m American.) Read my earlier post on this thread, and you tell me: "John, Sabrett’s can’t even come close to cutting it with the...

many things better—pizza, baked goods, Italian, French, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, organic/slow cooking/new American. As a native Texan, however, I was never very happy with East Coast BBQ, hamburgers, and Tex Mex; plus,...

no mention of Vik’s: the best place in Berkeley for cheap ethnic food, IMHO. (Chaat) You’ll have to drive or take a bus (Its on Allston way near 4th st) or take a long walk, but its worth it......Lots of mention of...
