Case: I think I may have food poisoning after eating here 4-5 hours ago. Achy joints, running to the bathroom, chills... Friggin' McDonalds.

Case: Given that your a juice/smoothie fanatic, you'd spend the best part of a year gulping your way through Juice almighty's offerings.  \n\nThe 'Pink Drink' and 'Brain Buzz' are well-equipped to perk you up good and proper for the day ahead and for a reasonably price too.\n\nA daily stew is up for grabs too, alongside some wraps and soups.

Case: I woke up incredibly, incredibly sick yesterday, with a thudding headache, achy limbs, hacking cough, and sniffling nose.\n\nAfter dragging myself through a long day of class, I knew--KNEW--I needed a decent bowl of soup.  When I was living in San Diego, the best cure for my tiredness and illness was always a big bowl of pho.  And I'd just heard that Xinh Xinh Cafe had opened next to the Schnucks.  \n\nThank God.\n\nThe space is a bit small, and has a whole \""Chipotle-forced-industrial\"" look to it, softened with Vietnamese hats and other cultural items.  I made a beeline for a nice big bowl of pho and was delighted by the flavorful bowl in front of me.  However, it could have used a little more beef.\n\nThat said, I enjoyed myself very much, and the menu is extensive, and the staff is incredibly friendly.  They've only been open three weeks, so you should give them a shot, especially if you're sick and need a big steaming bowl of pho to feel better.\n\nEdit: Keep in mind, they don't take credit/debit cards yet.  So, just run into schnucks and use the ATM or get cash back.

Case: We visited this place after taking the kids to the pool and finding the $32 for $16 groupon.  For an \""order at the counter, sit in the food court\"" fast food place, this place is extremely overpriced!!  Some meal combos are over 12 bucks (approaching gourmet burger prices at sit down places with MUCH more ambiance!).  Anyway, our tab ran almost 36 bucks for 3 turkey burgers, 2 fries, 1 shake and two sundaes for the girls.  Good thing we had the groupon to keep it more reasonable.  Of course, with what we got, this place was STILL overpriced after adding in the savings!  Turkey burgers were dry, tasteless and small.  Fries were very unremarkable, our vanilla shake was basically tasteless as well.  I don't know how these places charge as much as they do and still have people frequent them...  What a rip off!!  I will admit that the regular burgers did look pretty good but we were trying to go with somewhat healthier alternatives.  Anyway, if you are after burgers that don't run 40 bucks for a family of four, I think you are MUCH better off at In n Out or Smashburger!

Considreing the above, classify the following: The workers are so nice here and very attentive. I ordered the jerk pork hash and it was good, a bit dry but still had very good flavors. I came with my family so we also ordered the DW pastry basket and it was so yummy. The bread itself is light and fluffy and add it with chocolate and blueberry. It just made it even better!
