A: On our way home to So Cal, we decided to stop by Grimaldi's in Peoria, since it was both closer and not out of the way, like the Scottsdale one. The last time we were in town, Kathy first tried the one in Scottsdale and just died and went to pizza heaven. I agreed with her as we had it before leaving for home. An interesting note: the one in Scottsdale points to www.patsygrimaldis.com and the Peoria one just points to www.grimaldis.com. I'll need to ask... We had to take a detour off of Northern, since there was street work being done from out direction. When we finally got there, Grimaldi's was in a new shopping complex that looked like an outlet. The restaurant was facing the movie theatre and it started to rain while we walked in. We sat down and put in our order immediately, since we were dying hungry and didn't want the back and forth. Our usual: Pepperoni, onions and garlic. A nice blend of salty, sweet and savory. Kathy also ordered the mozzarella, tomato and basil salad. The mozzarella tasted store made and not hand made. The waitress did confirm that a company made the cheese just for Grimaldi's. When the pie did come out, it smelled divine and was just as good as I remember it to be. Kathy thought that the Scottsdale location made a better pie, but I think she is going off of euphoria. The crust was kissed by the coals, thin and crispy. As thin crust pizzas goes, Grimaldi's is head of the class. Pizzeria Bianco is in a class of its own, but that is an another review... We devoured our pie and I made sure to leave room for tiramisu. I am a maniac when it comes to tiramisu and was very pleased when I dove into the fresh tiramisu on drizzled chocolate. SO fricken good! Chased it with restaurant quality coffee. I can't think of a better way to end a meal. I found out that the father, Patsy, owned the original Brooklyn location and the son branched out to Florida, Arizona and other states. The name was changed to Grimaldi's from Patsy Grimaldi's after the dad retired. Overall, if you want a slice of New York pizza, outside of New York, Grimaldi's is your best bet. It only 6 hours from So Cal, but worth the drive...Stay hungry, my friends and good eatings!

A: I was trying on a pair of Dior heels here when my sister shoved her digital camera in my face and told me to look at a photo. I was simply LOOKING at a photo in the camera, when a salesman immediately came over to me and asked aggressively, "Are you taking a picture?" I told him no, and he repeated, "Are you taking a picture? You can't take pictures in here. Where are you from?" as if insinuating since I'm Asian, I must be from China and came ALL THE WAY FROM CHINA to this specific Dior location in VEGAS to take photos of last season shoes, to take back home to the mainland and make cheap copies of. Oh rly? As soon as I said I was from L.A., he became all nice and tried to sell me the heels I was trying on. Rude, rude, rude.
Problem: What would be an example of an positive (OPTIONS:

Answer: This is the first pizza place where I haven't eaten the pizza. My visits usually consist of the spring salad with their made-in-house dressing and either a sandwich or pasta. Every sandwich is excellent and filling no matter which you choose. The atmosphere is excellent with sports on in the backround and this Nello's location has the friendliest wait staff out of all of them.

Output: Yelp please give us a Zero star score. This is an awful company. They prey upon the poor, minorities and those who truely want to make their credit better. They charge fees like a Las Vegas Craps table ( the expensive ones) Charging hundreds of dollars in imaginary fees a month. They can't answer your complaints. They have a phone bank in the Phillipines with customer disservice employees who you can hear in the background all reading the same script. Frightening that this exists in America

output: Nice to find a different taste for lunch. Noodles, salads or subs can only go so far. The Lebanese sandwich is tantalizing with grilled onions and almost a chutney flavor. Most tables filled and a good lunch turn - a good sign. Close to my office for regular lunches and so good, I'll venture across town for dinner.

The first thing I did after checking in my hotel was to make a reservation at L'atelier de Joel Robuchon. Since I called in a couple of hours before they opened, they wern't able to take reservations. However, they do accept walk-ins but just be sure to get there when they open around 5:30 pm as the reservationist said I had a good probability of getting in. Not only is the decor amazing, the service is so wonderful and helpful without any sense of pretentiousness whatsoever. The staff takes care of you real well especially the serving chef that takes your order and brings you your food. At the bar area, hence "L'Atelier" meaning the workshop, you are served by one of the chefs as behind the bar counter is the kitchen. I opted for the Club menu ($95). A big plus with L'atelier is that they allow you to substitute courses for any other items not offered by the specific menu for a surcharge depending on the requested dish. They do offer a la carte and two other menus which are the theater Menu ($45-50 for a 3 course pre-theater meal) and the Seasonal menu ($155 for many more courses). For what I decided to drink throughout the meal, I went with one of the Bordeaux by the glass as I wasn't in the mood to break the bank in order to opt for the wine pairing. Also, they served me 3 different kinds of bread as well which I remembered tasted great. With what I could remember, I'm pretty sure they were a baguette, a butter roll, and a rosemary focaccia. The Club Menu: Amuse Bouche: Foie Gras Parfait with Parmesan foam - What a great way to kick off the meal with this custard-like starter. 1st Course: Le Foie Gras (I substituted the original mussels dish for a $10 surcharge) - This is seared foie gras from france on top of a bed of lentils. As what the serving chef said, usually seared foie gras is paired with sweet fruits such as cherries, apples or peaches. However, this dish is amazing as it was paired with savory lentils. It definitely was one of the best foie gras dishes I've ever had in my life. 2nd Course: La Langoustine - A langoustine fritter. This dish was great in presentation and taste. I like how the langoustine was not tough/chewy as shellfish do have the tendency to be overcooked. The only issue I have in my opinion was that there be some more acidic flavoring to it. A great dish nonetheless. 3rd Course - Le Boeuf (I chose this dish instead of the salmon dish) - The preparation I had was that it came out as braised beef cheeks. This rich dish was amazing and it definitely tops the best French braised beef dishes I've ever had. It was also accompanied with creamy penne pasta with various mushrooms. 4th Course: Les Fromages - The three various cow and sheep cheeses they offered were alright. I remembered one of them being Bleu cheese. The bread that accompanied them was great. The main issue I have with this dish however is that the pieces were too big as most restaurants of this caliber serve cheeses thinner as to eat together with the bread. 5th Course: Glaces et Sorbet - This dessert is composed of three different ice creams and three different sorbets accompanied with thin squares of candy and chocolates. I could only remember four out of six of them which were the coconut and Nutella ice creams, and strawberry and mango sorbets. The ice creams tasted great. However, I found the sorbets to be too tart. Ending Drink - I opted for a single Macallan 18 yr served neat which tasted amazing. I was originally planning on having a cognac to end my meal seeing that it was a French restaurant after all. However, the price for a single Hennessy V.S.O.P was around $20 whereas the Macallan 18 yr was more around $15. I can't find an explanation for the prices as Hennessy V.S.O.P is around $45-50 a bottle whereas a bottle of Macallan 18 yr will run you around $120-150. With those bottle prices, I found it to be a steal for Macallan 18 yr being served at 15 a pop at a fine dining establishment. My experience at L'atelier de Joel Robuchon was nothing less than stellar. Not only did it live up to my expectations, it made me realize why Joel Robuchon was named Chef of the Century. With his novel and revolutionary methods of cooking and wonderful service omitting the stereotypical pretentiousness associated with these sort of restaurants paved way as a model for current fine dining establishments to take. I will definitely be coming back for their much grander Seasonal menu in the near future.
