Text - Mehh...\n\nMy friends from out of town wanted to go here so we complied.  Ehh, we had tables awaiting us if you have a group of friends you are going to rock it!  As I said we had a tables reserved but we didn't have enough girls. Hmm these are hollywood guys people know them 'm sure girls will come but maybe they should have taken the sunglasses off?!  or payed more money but why should they!  We have a tables but we had to talk to the concierge.  Once that was taken care of apologies from the door staff and the management.\n\nOur group gets to our table and starts to set up, the waitress is beautiful and proficient and does a great job.  We had a great time getting nutts and the low girl to guy ratio changed very quickly.  However this is an old club had not been remodeled in many years.  The bathrooms are on either side a long walk from VIP.  You pay to be in VIP you are close to the dance floor but you don't need it in posh styled booths you can dance your little heart out IN YOUR AREA yup you heard me someone complained that \""we crossed the line\"" into their area.  So over it...\n\nDark club, nice waitresses, crappy door staff phishing for extra tips, kinda worn out club.

Text - I love this dry cleaners. They are always friendly and welcoming. They also do such an amazing job! You can't beat 1.99 a piece with great service ! \n\nThey are also located near a massage parlor, nail shop and the park! They usually only take 2 days to finish all my stuff up and I always bring in around 30 items!

Text - Nice little place on Fremont, but you have to walk all the way towards the eastside of Fremont!\n\nOutdoor seating? Yes! Very nicely done and it makes it a little more romantice with my gf.  Place does get crowded, but hey good food means you going to have to wait just a bit.  \n\nI came here with a group, everything was already arranged and yes it was very well presented.  We started with two apps (veggie eggrolls and wings).  Loved the wings and their dipping sauce (informed that it was just hotsauce and ranch).  The jerky with sticky rice and thai sauce, heaven.. Tiny bits of beef was very tender.  Because we were in a group the spiciness was set to mild.  Poo, I love hot stuff! Amazing noodles and pad thai were very solid choices.  I thought that it tasted just good, but could have been better if i was spicy.  Should go alone next time.  Another great entree is the chicken curry.  How good was it?  The guy across from me is a graduate from culinary school and he acutally asked for the rest of it to take home.  Enough said.  \n\nNow for you drinking folks.  There's quite a selection on thai beer from what I heard.  I don't drink, but most of the guys at the table did.  They got quite a bit that night.  \n\nDesserts! Fried bananas, a bit too much wrapping around the banana but then it works well since condensed milk is poured onto it.  Now the really appealing and interesting item was this egg cake with nutella baked.. Sorry don't remember what it was called.  Surprisingly, it wasn't really that bad once you start chewing.  I thought the egg was going to be weird but it was more like a flan with nutella.\n\nDef will be back.  Yes I'll have to take my gf, but I want my noodles spicy!\n\nSide note: parking is difficult, but there is street parking around the corner on both ends.  Meter parking and free after 6pm.

Text - Pizza is okay. I little too much garlic (I bit into a whole clove under the cheese). It taste better than little cesar's or domino's, but as far as fresh, baked bistro pizza goes...I've tasted better. \n\nIt's next door to a smoke shop... I think there's a double door adjoining the them. It smells like hookah when you first walk in. The place looks like a poorly remodeled cafe/lounge. Seems like it might be a neat place to hang out (has a pool table and large tv), but there are quite a few guys (friends of the owner? ) hanging around who make it a little awkward.  \n \nThe cashier/cook was nice, but I question the cleanliness of the kitchen.

Considreing the above, classify the following: I really enjoyed my time at Around the Bend Book.  I met many interesting people and had great conversations. We're new to the area, and this was the perfect opportunity to meet people in the area.  Malcom, the owner, is great!  Stop in and enjoy some good books and good friendships!
