I've only done pick up orders, so I can't say anything about dining in, but from the little that I dealt with the staff, they seemed pretty okay. All I got were a couple large pizzas and they were okay. I'd even say they were goodish, considering they were only $5 each and were worlds better than the $5 pizzas from Little Caesers. While they'll probably never be one of my favorite pizza places, they're cheap and right by my house, which is good enough for me when I'm broke and trying to figure out a last minute dinner.

TRY THIS PLACE! I've tried quite a few ramen houses, thai shops and chinese food hole-in-the-wall establishments in Chinatown, and I have to say this is DEFINITELY one of my favorites. Heres why: - Tom Yum - the best frickin tom yum I have EVER had. - Pad Thai - was delish - Curry - traditional and new wave selections, and very good! - Thai Iced Tea - not only is it very good, but they offer an XL size for the inner fat kid. - Price - SPOT ON. Where I would normally spend $30-40 on the same meal (my girlfriend and I always get the same items the first time we try a new place), this place cost $23. This allowed me to tip the waitress with more than what she deserved. Everyone is happy :) -The 'ramen' (it was not called ramen here) was also very good, the broths are savory and the meat included is perfect for the amount of soup/noodle/veggie. The choices are interesting: duck, salmon, many different traditional thai dishes and flavors prove that a one time dining experience will leave you craving the sequel.

Last Friday I visited with my daughter who lives in Champaign. After lunch and shopping what's next? You guessed it, coffee! I have long been a fan of this cafe, it's cozy and definitely has the college town vibe to it even though it is far away from campus. There's a nice little patio, good food for lunch and great coffee! It was pretty warm so I had their iced vanilla latte. I prefer coffee hot, in fact the hotter the better, but in the summer unless I am in frigid ac all day, I add the ice. Their coffee stood up nicely to the ice and since I was getting a beverage, what the heck, might as well try some cookies. I had their iced ginger cookies and they were really good. I love ginger cookies and these are what I would call ginger lite, delicious but without a zing. I liked the lumpiness of them and the chewy texture but the ginger was mainstream. I will be back as I miss my daughter and just coming here would be enough of an excuse for me to head south on 57!

Love the Hideaway! One of my favorite spots any day of the week. Don't be alarmed by the "Biker bar" theme, as most of them are Christmas bikers who are Lawyers, or Investment bankers during the week. I have never seen anything remotely resembling a hardcore biker gang, or any trouble there after being a regular for several years. Mark runs a great Bar, and its full of friendly bikers of all ages. I don't even have a bike, or leather chaps, or even pretend to be a biker and get along with everyone. The pizza is just about as good as it gets. Possibly my favorite pizza in the valley (except Spinatos). Live music , video jukebox, and great atmosphere. I even dragged some Snottsdale friends up there and they now love this place. Just try it, and it will most likely become your favorite as well.....
