Problem: A movie theater that charges over $20 a ticket? Who doesn't say wow that sounds great I'm in? My entourage and I were done dominating the pool party at the W Scottsdale this weekend and decided to go watch a motion picture. All of us were tired of Harkins Theatres and their cheap tickets and $1 drink refills. Who needs that I wondered... After making numerous purchases at lululemon, we sauntered up the towering escalator to iPic's glorious entryway. As we entered two Bond girls wearing all black greeted us and asked what film we wanted to see. I chuckled and said I'm surprised you just asked me that. Isn't Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter the obvious choice for me here? In fact, every iPic theater goer this weekend? Still not understanding how they had sold tickets for movies other than Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, my shock turned into sheer terror as I soon realized our seats were assigned and I could not choose my own. What does a man have if he does not have free will? Then a grim reality...our seats were in the very back row sunk into the depths of the corner of the theater. This was the equivalent of being the guy behind the guy propping up his sweaty girlfriend on his shoulders at a concert; we could not see. When I asked the waiter if we could change our back corner view seats before the movie he provided me with a puzzled look as if he had spent a day reading most of Twilight before realizing it was not a cool and bloody vampire tale, but instead something far greater. After using most of the money I had been saving in my carbon fiber Terminator themed coin purse, I opened the menu and was further aghast. My god, I bemoaned, $15 for sliders and $8 beers? They did provide free popcorn although that is similar to a Crip giving a Blood back the gun he used to take out another Blood. When the movie ended, I realized three things; one, I had just watched the greatest film of my generation, two, how much better the film would have been if John Stamos played Abraham Lincoln, and three, wow iPic is expensive! Next time I'll take in a movie at Harkins instead. I'll use the money I saved from not going to iPic to purchase Beverly Hills 90210: The Complete Blu Ray Collection or an autographed picture of the greatest fitness instructor since Richard Simmons, Tae Bo's own Billy Blanks.

Problem: I have been driving by this place for weeks now and finally I got to try this place out last night! I am so happy there's finally a great Chinese restaurant close by me. I ordered the salt and pepper chicken, shrimp pad Thai, and their Szechwan beef! It was delicious! The pad Thai was not as good as real pad Thai, but it was good enough to fill my expectations. The place was very small but intimate. I like how you can see the chefs cooking your food and they have boba's!!! They also have lunch specials which is priced very reasonable!

Problem: Excuse that i can't make any specific recommendations. We just closed our eyes and pointed at the menu. Everything we got was FANTASTIC. The sangria wasn't too expensive (I think $15 for a pitcher?). After a quick dousing of that my friend and I were both feeling pretty good. The waitress who helped was very cute, Eastern European I think. She was super-friendly and chatty, but we had to let her go to help other people. Service was prompt and the food came pretty fast for the entire evening. The place was really loud, but at one point I made a comment to my friend about the food that the couple adjacent to us were eating. the gentleman at the other table willingly offered me his plate because he was full. Not really a +1 for the restaurant itself, but I suppose it's one for the crowd. Overall, we ended up spending about $70 and left with full stomachs while feeling pretty wavy as well. Having arrived here from New York about 3 weeks ago, it's doubtful I could replicate this experience at that price where I'm from, but I find myself saying that a lot out here.
