Case: Normandie is a great lunch spot in the middle of a mass of industrial complexes. One shouldn't be fooled by the location; the food here is quite good.\n\nI've been there three times now, and everything I've had has been fantastic. I had a roast chicken special with mashed potatoes and julienne \""seasonal\"" vegetables on my first visit. It was simply prepared and perfectly cooked, the gravy was wonderful, and I appreciated the slightly different take on crookneck squash, zucchini, and carrots so often served as an accompaniment at \""fancy\"" restaurants. At $7.95, this was a steal. \n\nOn the second visit, I had roast pork, served in the same fashion, but in its own gravy. Not bad, but I preferred the chicken.\n\nYesterday, I ordered the pate sandwich. It came on a baguette with mustard, and it had chunks of pate that made the meat of the sandwich about an inch thick. Very tasty, and definitely a guilty pleasure. My friend had the smoked turkey and brie sandwich on another occasion and said the same thing.\n\nThe only drawback, in my opinion, is that the baguettes on which the sandwiches are served are baked on a rack, instead of a hearth. This, to me, is what separates artisan breadmakers from bakers. But, you can't have everything, and maintaining a hearth in such a tiny spot that's primary function is as a lunch restaurant, and not as a bakery, is pretty unrealistic, so I can understand.\n\nThey serve many sandwiches, three soups made from scratch every day, and have lots of other daily specials. They serve breakfast, which I have yet to try. There is always a nice case full of beautiful pastries on display at the front of the counter. Everything I've had there has been great. It's a diamond in the rough.

Case: A pink sign adorns this store and inside, this frozen yogurt doles out frosty treats via self serve machines. Several flavours are available, including pi\u00f1a colada, blueberry, strawberry and of course plain. Afterwards you can put your favorite toppings like fresh strawberries, pineapples, m&ms and chocolate chips. Cost is by weight. \n\nMy favorite was the blueberry and strawberry yougurt with some fresh fruit toppings. Perfect to cool down yourself on a hot summer day.

Case: Believe both the good and the not so good o the reviews for Nacho Daddy's.  Service was very slow for a Saturday night at 8pm.\n\nThe introductory corn muffins were tasty but I would have preferred chips and salsa considering how slow the service was.\n\nWe had a pitcher of the house margaritas which were heavy on the sweet and sour and seemed light on the alcohol.\n\nI had the spicy shrimp nachos and my g/f had the mexi Cobb salad. The shrimp were the tiny shrimp which lacked any real taste.  Her salad seemed fine, both portions were good sized.\n\nOverall, not great value, fair food but nothing special.

Case: Saw a review a few weeks back about a bakery in my neck of the woods. Can't remember who wrote it but i suspect it was by a fellow food freak so i had to give this place a shot soon.\n\nHad the sweet tooth yesterday, in the area - time to give Sugar Bee a try.  Compared to the Drago Sisters down the street, a small selection of sweets.  I'd say comparable to the new bakery on Durango by Warm Springs  ( name escapes me ) \n\nServer ranted about the chocolate chip cookies ( i ordered 2 ), also the tangerine Cinnamon roll,  a blackberry pastry, and the vanilla bread pudding ( something else besides vanilla in the bread pudding but i forget )  and a ham and cheese croissant.\n\nAll items were high quality but order of preference:\n\nBread pudding - dense, very flavorful ( would've been a home run with some ice cream ) \n\nchocolate chip cookies - slightly overcooked otherwise, on par with Bread and Butter.\n\nHam & Cheese croissant - flaky, buttery goodness - wish i had a nice mustard to slather on it !\n\nblackberry pastry - loved the blackberry \""filling'  but it was too thin so one bite and the dam broke open and it leaked all over !\n\nTangerine cinnamon roll - the tangerine \"" essence\"" was amazing but the dough was a little too dense for me - i think if i added some butter and microw'ed for about 30 seconds this might have Been a contenda !\n\nNothing over $4 ( i think... maybe the croissant ) - total bill under $15 ( i think they miscalculated the bill ) \n\nI will return !!\n\npics added

Case: To reduce the price of dinner we decided to eat at Wolfgang Puck. \nWe ordered a pineapple mojito (12 dollar), a hurricane (16 dollar) and a coke (4,50 dollar). \nWe shared the starter (tuna tartare 21 dollar) which was very good. Our son wanted a lasagne (21 dollar). Remark : very strange taste. The shrimp pasta (26 dollar) was too expensive. The fish of the day was very casual (33 euro) so also too expensive.\nWe ended with a pear cheesecake (12 dollar) which was better the day before somewhere else.... The cafe latte was ok (4,50 dollar).\nThe waiter was too pushy for his tip, in spite of a bill from 162,42 dollar.....\nThe prices are raised and we don't see a reason why... no extra service or something special to order.\nFor being 'a brasserie' it's not worth at all.\nWe will not return, because for this price, we can eat better somewhere else.

Case: So, I admitt, if I could have breathed or even moved when I walked in I am sure I would have enjoyed the band... I like country bars, I really wanted to like this one too because it's so close to me. \n\nGolly gee wizz cowboys... it's too packed! If you are not big on crowds don't bother going on the weekends because they pack you in like a can of saradeans. *true*

Considreing the above, classify the following: Fabulous! This was my son- in -laws Restaurant Week choice and an excellent one. Lots of menu choices, a drink included and excellent service from the moment we arrived until we left. We will return soon and often.
