    Tempe, Arizona I LOVE BREAKFAST! I like every breakfast food out there; some more than others. I have never turned down a piece of crispy bacon, nor have I ever said no to a pancake. I get up in the morning for breakfast. Again I was on a work trip and this time I found…

    I had to go out of town for a brief business trip, to the nice warm city of Austin, TX. And as usual, before I went I took a look around to see if there were any restaurants that people recommended. At the top of the list was Kemuri-Tatsuya, a Michelin star restaurant focused on…

    Cozy’s Cafe and Pub

    As time passes I find that I have become extremely picky about the restaurants I try. Nowadays, I feel disappointed with certain venues. After dining sometimes I feel like the meal was mediocre at best and know I could have made it better at home and for much cheaper. But a few Saturday’s ago, I…

    “Why are there no coffee shops open late at night?” – Alaina and I have been asking this question aloud for quite some time.  There’s days when I want a late night coffee and it is considered “super” late that Dunkin is closed or Starbucks is closing soon. Where is the cafe or coffee shop…
