Before going to a show, we decided to get a bite to eat at Maggiano's. Though I should say many bites as the portions at Maggiano's are huge! I ordered the rustic chicken and shrimp al forno with a Caesar's salad. It was really good. In fact my mom and her friend liked it so much they wished they had ordered it. The only bad part was I had to go out of town the next day so I wasn't able to keep the leftovers. It worked out great for my mom's friend though, who offered to take the leftovers!

Excellent food and beer. Very outstanding service. We visit about 1 once a week.

This is a very well run Bojangles location. Convenient to uptown for the drive into work for breakfast and heading out of uptown for dinner. The family variety pack is the Big Bo Box with both chicken on the bone and chicken supremes plus 3 large "picnic" sides with 8 biscuits and a half gallon of tea for $28! This feeds my family for 2 days plus biscuits for breakfast. Also a great choice for Panthers tailgating.

Maqbool's is a fantastic Asian supermarket, just round the corner from the main University campus, George Square. The inside of Maqbool's is surprisingly large and as a result they sell a huge range of foreign ingredients. They stock everything you could ever require to make an authentic Asian dish. Maqbool's shelves a piled high with a vast range of different foods. Their herb and spices section is worth particular notice as it is truly amazing. They offer an extensive range of rare herbs and spices which you would be hard pushed to find in the high street supermarket stores. I love to make Asian stir fry's and Thai Green Curries and so Maqbool's is always my first and last port of call to buy the ingredients as they sell everything I could ever need for the dishes and more. Maqbool's sells the most delicious smelling lime leaves which I use in curries and although I was a bit dubious about using the leaves in the curry as I didn't think it was necessary, having tasted how amazing it is with the leaves, I have never looked back. There is also a wide meat counter at the back of the shop which sells a range of different halal meats. Maqbool's also sells dried pulses and beans in bulk. The staff are very friendly and keen to assist you and the prices are incredibly reasonable too. Definitely a store to go to for any of your Asian food needs.
