Problem: Recently opened, Yummy Yummy has a classic Chinese-American menu with a Szechuan bent. (Will visit next week and flesh out this review. However, after our first visit, bottom line: fresh, fast and excellent quality.) The wife and I were at Churchill's and stopped on a whim last Sunday for takeout. Both of us were pleased with YY's food quality: chicken was fresh, as were the vegetables. I had chicken and noodles, the wife mushroom chicken. Our food blew most of the locals away (Tottie's, China Wok for example, who take too many shortcuts which downgrade quality) yet are small on both seating space and ambiance. Egg rolls were reasonably priced (although I had a hard time finding the shrimp in my 'shrimp egg roll'). It's unfortunate that a veggie reviewer would give YY one star...but to each his own. If you're in the mood for a NYC kind of Chinese takeout, it's worth a visit.

Problem: I would suggest going anywhere else. We waited for over 30 minutes for one shuttle to come pick us up. Once we got there, there were 4 employees just sitting around not helping any guests. The service was not great and they promised things and did not follow through. I ended up canceling my car, waiting for their bus to take me back, and then going to a different car company.

Problem: Since returning from my trip to Thailand, I like to think I've developed a more discerning taste for Thai food. Nicky's Thai had been on my list for awhile and was the first place my boyfriend and I decided to try upon returning from our trip. We walked in without a reservation and had no trouble being seated right away. The place is completely packed with decorations that look like they came straight from a Thai marketplace...buddhas, apsara dancers, elephants, and peacocks in gleaming gold nearly everywhere you look. It's a beautiful and authentic space that really sets the mood for the delicious Thai food you are about the consume. I decided to go with one of the Chef Specials, the Salmon Mango Curry. Probably not the most authentic dish, but I was still a little burned out on Thai food (the boyfriend was not). It was a nice-sized piece of grilled salmon smothered with veggies and mango and topped with a green curry sauce. The amount of mango was a little overwhelming, which made for a very sweet dish. I enjoyed it nonetheless but would probably choose a curry dish next time. My boyfriend went with the Massaman Curry with Tofu. It was full of chunks of fried tofu, potato, and pineapple and topped with peanuts. Very rich and flavorful! I also loved that the curry and rice came served in big fancy golden dishes. The portions were huge, we easily had enough left over for two lunches the next day. I was still a little burned out on Thai desserts, but I look forward to trying their Mango with Sticky Rice and Deep Fried Bananas with Ice Cream in the future. This is a great little piece of Thailand in downtown Pittsburgh, and I can't wait to bring my friends and family in to experience the exotic cuisine!

Problem: Celsius is a solid neighborhood sushi bar. I have been here quite a few times and really enjoy sitting at the sushi bar, especially when Joe (the owner) is there! He does a great job of expanding my sushi horizons by offering samples of new and fresh items to taste! As Larry said, the service can be a bit iffy at times, but at the bar I always have a good experience. One other great thing, since my BF is gluten free, Joe has been working on creating great GF sauces, like Ponzu, Eel Sauce etc, to accommodate those who can't have any wheat. They also have Tamari, in addition to regular soy sauce for GF guests. They have regular and reverse happy hour every day, plus an all day happy hour on Saturday which you can't beat. Their drink selection is great and there is always a special on wines and/or cocktails. Enjoy!
