Below the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth lies the Gare Centrale, and its warren of shops, cafes, and Premiere Moisson. The first time I ventured down into the train station, I saw a queue of people at Premiere Moisson. And as soon as I looked into the display cases and saw the fantastic-looking pastries, I knew why. It became my daily ritual to leave the hotel, descend into the subterranean shopping mall, and immediately get in line at the boulangerie. "Une chocolatine aux amandes, SVP." These chocolate and almond croissants were good enough to rival my local favorites at Fleur de Cocoa: crisp and flaky on the outside, and full of chocolatey, almondy goodness on the inside. I am envious of the commuters who are able to stop here every day on their way to work!

I just got my dog from the Arizona Humane Society and they suggested VCA. I was very happy with the care they gave Coco, and the time they spent with her. Someone who has had a dog for quite some time suggested that maybe they were trying to suggest too many tests and meds for me to "buy" that weren't necessary but I don't know that to be the case. She's new to me and I don't know her history so I think it's better safe than sorry. The medicine they gave me for her ear infection perked her up immediately. I'm going to take her back there for sure.

This is not your Father's Mexican joint. The food is real good, but items that are normally sides included with dinner.....like beans, are extra. I had one of the house specialties...fish tostadas. The fish was perfectly fried and served on a small crispy corn tortilla, topped off with shredded cabbage and the tastiest sauce. We ordered chips and salsa, which comes with 3 salsas. The fire roasted salsa looked quite zesty, but tasted pretty bland. The mole inspired salsa was....I'm not a fan of mole. The green tomatillo salsa was pretty good and my fav. The chips were excellent!

Wow...this place sure has gone downhill! They cut back their hours and now close at 3pm during the week? They got rid of their salad bar? My wife and I ate dinner here on 3/8. I ordered a small house salad and the meatloaf w/mashed potatoes and corn. The salad was a portion of cabbage w/ a slice of not very ripe tomato. It's a good thing I added ranch to make it somewhat palatable. I didn't finish it. The best part of my dinner was the corn. I got the feeling that this place wasn't doing very well so they're cutting back wherever they can. This used to be a decent place when they first opened. I hope this location serves a better breakfast or they might as well close for business. With tip, I spent $27 for dinner for 2. I should've gone to Mimi's.
