Example: Visiting Penang for the first time this past weekend, and I have to say this is probably one of the most authentic Malaysian cuisines I've tried in the West Coast.  I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, and I've practically tried every Malaysian/Singaporean restaurants/cafes in the Bay Area.  This restaurant outclass all of these wannabe's including the ultra-pretencious (and unreasonably expensive) Straits Cafe.\n\nI normally go to Satay Malaysian Grille when I am in Vegas...i thought their satay was really good, until I tried Penang this trip.  I went they twice in a row this trip, ordering their Hainanese Chicken rice (excellent!) and chicken satay (even better than Satay Malaysian Grille, esp. the satay sauce).  Also ordered the Cantonese Style Seafood Chow Fun, which is quite good, but frankly, the one at Satay Malaysian Grille is a tad better.\n\nOverall, both Satay Malaysian Grille and Penang Malaysian are very very good... far better than any of the so-called Malaysian/Singaporean places in the Bay Area (with the exception of Rasa, located near the San Jose International Airport).  Penang Malaysian edges ahead in terms of authenticity and price point (about 10-20% cheaper than Satay Malaysian).  Sadly, the business at Penang is nowhere close to its arch rival, which is also on Spring Mountain Road, probably due to the fact that it's a much further away from the strip, hidden in a local Asian strip mall.  In my opinion, \""da-best\"" Malaysian restaurant/cafe is still the Nyonya in NY's Chinatown!  That's a absolutely 5-star rating!

Example: My favorite Madison clothing store by far.  I coveted a pair of gold shoes they had over Christmas ($135!)  and managed to save enough to buy them....totally worth it!!  They are italian leather and SO beautiful.  Everything else in the store is the same way....it makes me wish I had unlimited funds and could get one of everything.  The guys clothing is fantastic too, although getting your boyfriend to shell out that kind of money to look \""metrosexual\"" is sometimes a challenge. Something nice to keep in mind as well is that they have free alterations on non-sale clothing....I had a pair of jeans done and they actually put the detailing around the bottom back on....AMAZING!  5 stars.

Example: We have two dogs and joined the Banfield plan, with the full intention of getting fantastic service while saving money. (Banfield offers a plan where you pay monthly per pet and get free office visits with basic vaccinations included, and discounts on services/medications outside of your plan. We pay $25 per dog monthly). We have been incredibly disappointed, and here's why:\n- Our office visits are never free, the doctors always find a way to charge you for something. One time one of their vets tried to talk us into a $150 test to see if she licked a poisonous toad.. seriously?!? \n- I never feel like we are taking the dogs ta good, honest vet - Banfield feels more like a corporation that needs to hit a certain number every month - hence why they are always billing you for things you don't need and overcharging you.\n- With our plan, we're supposed to save money. However, I've researched local vets and their services are nearly half the price than my \""discounted ones\""\n- Every time a Banfield vet prescribes our dogs medicine, our \""discounted savings\"" are nearly TWICE what the medicine is priced at online.\n- They are VERY sneaky with their plan. They do not tell you when they are renewing your annual contract. Once it's renewed, you cannot get out of it for a full year (we have tried SO many times). Of course this was never discussed when we initially signed up for it. Only in the fine print of our numerous page contract.\n- I'm disappointed with the quality of healthcare the dogs have received. Nobody seems to know the answer to health problems when I take them in there. I'm still waiting to hear back from a fungal culture they took 11 days ago, our poor dog is still covered in a rash. \n\nOverall, I'm convinced Banfield and their animal plans are a scam. Support local businesses, save money and take your pets to a local pet hospital. Our contract is up next June thank goodness - that cannot come soon enough!!

Example: Ive been in vegas for 23 years and belonged to the Q club, 24 hour, and LVAC.  City Athletic club is by far the dirtiest most unhealthy gym I've EVER been in. Where should I start? Ive NEVER seen anyone wiping down the equipment. To my knowledge the employees DO NOT sanitize the equipment. there is always something out of order , whether its the water fountains which are made for 2 feet tall people or the steam room which they finally put a sign up saying it will be reopened on 4-24 after who knows how long its been broken. The small cardio area is gross and doesn't have the nice built in tvs that EVERY other gym in town has now!! For all they charge for membership you would think they could get the best equipment. No wifi is just another disappoint in the long list of shortcomings at City Athletic Club. The mens locker room is really gross, and just 1 little bench in the regular locker room. They don't even have paper towels to dry your hands after washing them. Ive got to say don't waste your time or money on this dirty little hole in the wall.

Considreing the above, classify the following: My friend and I visited Bean on a Saturday night around 6:30pm. There was a small crowd of people which seemed to get busier as the night went on. The service was great and the meal didn't take too long which I had previously heard was sometimes slow since there is only one person cooking. My friend and I shared the special, the firecracker bowl, which featured spicy tofu, rice, beans, vegan cheese, kale and fried jalapenos. It was large and we had leftovers even with the two of us eating off of it. We also shared the jackfruit tacos. They tasted similarly to fish tacos. Also a very good choice. We decided on the mashed potatoes with gravy and tator tot casserole. Both excellent sides. I most likely could eat an entire meal of the tator tot casserole although it's not offered as a meal. Next time I may just order 3 small bowls of it because it's that good! The strawberry cheesecake was a nice way to end the meal. They had lots of dessert choices and many chocolate options as well. I was very full and really didn't need dessert but clearly that didn't stop me. We will be back. Thanks Bean.
