Trying new lunch items for me could either be a treat or a disaster.  I thought this place was good.....not great.


I was really hungry and stressed out at work and was really happy my cousin asked to go out to lunch with me. I kind of ate with my eyes instead of my stomach though.

Ordered the wings and they were good.... but I thought I'd be sharing this truck load of wings instead of overindulging myself. I wish the wings were fried a little longer then drenched into the hot sauce. Oh well...

My fish and chips were pretty good. Nice big piece of cod in a nice flaky batter. The fries were seasoned well. Nothing to cry home to mama about! 


This dish made me jealous!!!!  It was the special for the day. Lobster sandwich with fries. Why did I pass on this!!! Why please tell me!!!  It had avocados, tomatoes, chunky pieces of lobster and a sauce to marry the flavors together. The small sample I got was a tease. Not cool!!! 



I'd like to try this place again and see what it has to offer. Till then........well see!!!

I love to travel. I went to the Poconos with a few friends a while back and went to this famous place with "crack butter " I forgot the name of the place but my good ole tongue never forgets great flavor!


So my cousin told me a new place opened near her house and we should def give it a try. As soon as I walked back in I was engulfed with so many emotions. I saw the butter in the waiting area window and quickly text ed my friend and said "Huston I now have crack butter I REPEAT I now have crack butter " she knew exactly what I was talking about.


Anyway back to the blogging. They have $3 drinks all day long with $2 kickers. Super delicious! 


I wasn't too hungry but I wanted a Burger. I got this colossal amount of food and felt defeated. Great flavor but so much food. Sorry no pictures of the crack butter. Each time it hit the table each time it disappeared!!!! Maybe that's why I was full. Great Burger thought and really good seasoned fries.  


I will definitely go back and do another review!!! Until then, happy eating!!!

I know you guys can tell I love to eat. So for my birthday I pretty much did a lot of that!!
I always wanted to try this place and what better timing than for my birthday!


Here we have a very sexy lyche martini. It was sting and not too sweet, just how I like it!!!

Shrimp tempura was da bomb dot com!!! The cream sauce that was drizzled over it was light yet rich in flavor!!! Omg I fell in love with it! I would definitely order this again


I always need to have my vegetable spring rolls and these were no different! Nice and fresh!


My bf got the mango mojito, and wasn't too happy with it :( . First sweet drink he thought was too much for him. I liked it though! 


Most bento boxes come with only one meat. Here you get the option to get an extra meat (regular portion) for an extra $2-3. It was a lot of food. Surprising it was really good as well. No flavor lost in this duo bento box supreme! A great choice if your hungry. 


Here we have my bf's dish which was the fire wok. I kind of wish I ordered this too. It had lobster, scallops, shrimp, and Calamari.  The sauce was spicy, there was asparagus in there and I was just Jones-ing for a bite of each. Not saying my dish wasn't good. Had I left my comfort zone I might of ordered this. 


I highly recommend going here. There's happy hour on the weekends and that's another blog post waiting to happen! Until next time!!!

The strand bistro was amazing!!!

First off, the lunch pre fix meal is $20 bucks. You get a choice of a few appetizers, entrees, and an ice tea. 

My cousin got her usual steak frites. I tried it and died a little inside!!!  The steak was cook to the right temperature. The fries were seasoned perfectly. I was slightly jealous I didn't order this dish, but it gave me more reason to come back!! 



My entrees was the Salmon on a bed of mash potatoes and asparagus!  Holy vow was this delicious!  The salmon was super delicate and flavorful. The mash with the sauce and the asparagus left me wanting more. I found a new guilty pleasure lunch spot!! 


Now the reason I left the appetizer for last was because of the sinful decadence it left you with. Panko crusted mac and cheese. The cheese sauce was out of this world! I kid you not it was like no other mac and cheese dish I ever had! The portion was more than enough for an appetizer! I remember leaving strands and wanting more of the mac and cheese than any thing else!!!  I need this recipe! 





All in all this place rocks! I would highly recommend this place.
