I usually stop for dinner at Greek Islands. My lunch stop was just as satisfying with great food---Greek salad and lamb dinner---and welcoming service. Thanks, folks!

Dinner at Marino's in Des Moines

Marino's eggplant rollatini is perfect comfort food, particularly on a winter evening. The proprietor is very gracious and welcoming. Thank you!

Steak From The Broiler

Friday night is still steak night. Grilling outside is always best but sometimes the cold makes me think twice. This steak from Loeffel Meat Shoppe was cooked under the broiler and it was delicious. My corn and potato were just right on the side. I am grateful for excellent meals such as this.

Huevos Rancheros for Dinner

I made huevos rancheros for breakfast. I fried my own tostadas which makes a special treat. My green sauce topped my dish nicely. I am grateful for such simple, wholesome meals.

Breakfast at Hub Cafe

I haven't enjoyed breakfast at Hub Cafe for awhile. It was good to be back in their light-filled room. My huevos rancheros was tasty and the staff friendly as always. Thanks, folks!

Sunday Lunch Buffet at Chances R in York NE

The drive to York on a sunny Sunday is a pleasure. The lunch/brunch buffet at Chances R is a welcome treat, with good food and friendly staff. This is a small selection of the buffet items. I didn't catch the salad bar, fish selection, carving table, or dessert. My selection of meat and vegetables really hit the spot. I was too hungry to take a photo of my iceberg lettuce salad, which I really enjoyed. Thanks, folks!

Lunch at Rizin in Omaha

These spicy edamame nicely woke up my taste buds for my delicious ramen. The proprietor's service was wonderfully welcome as always. Thanks, folks!

Lunch at Itsumo

A hearty lunch for a cold day. Thanks, folks, for your graciousness and good food!

Omelet And Pancake For Breakfast

I tried a new breakfast combination. I made one small multigrain pancake, served with banana, strawberries, and ricotta. I put it next to a three-egg omelet. The small pancake was the perfect match for the omelet. I am grateful for such tasty and hearty meals.

Eggplant Lasagne

I made this eggplant lasagne, enough for several meals. Tastes great, keeps me healthy. I am grateful.

A Festival of Smoked Meat

You see here two briskets being smoked. One of them is a pastrami after having been brined. I made pastrami sandwiches with rye bread and Swiss. I also made latkes using some chicken fat I had saved from an earlier batch of stock. Pickles rounded out the plate. Everything was delicious. I am grateful for such wonderful meals.

Rye Bread from Great Harvest

I stopped by Great Harvest and found exactly what I hoped for, a loaf of rye bread. It tasted great and had great texture. Thanks, folks!

Fresh Strawberries On My Pancakes

I noticed fresh strawberries at Super Saver and grabbed a box. What a treat in the depths of winter! I am blessed to enjoy simple pleasures.

Dinner at Single Barrel

I haven't been to Single Barrel in awhile and it was good to be back. The staff was welcoming as always. I tried these corn cakes which were very tasty. My aged ribeye was excellent, flavorful and perfectly cooked. Thanks, folks!

Lunch at Blue Orchid

A delicious lunch graciously served. Thanks, folks!

Baked Tofu with Peanut Sauce

I haven't made this in awhile and it was a treat. I am grateful for simple, wholesome meals.

Huevos Rancheros for Breakfast

I always enjoy this hearty breakfast. I have settled on a green sauce made entirely of green peppers, no onion or tomatillos. The spice wakes me up. I am grateful for meals such as this.

Breakfast at Barbeque Kitchen

Barbeque Kitchen is a comforting place. The staff is welcoming in a very calm way. The food is just right. Thank you for another wonderful breakfast!

Dinner at Mamak Vegan in Chamblee

My meal at Mamak Vegan started with these tasty sweet potato dumplings. I wasn't entirely sure what I had ordered for my main course. It turned out to be a variation of my favorite salt and pepper tofu with an interesting sauce. Service was very friendly. Thanks, folks!

Dumplings at Gu's Kitchen in Chamblee

After eating these wonderful dumplings in my car for a couple of years, it was a pleasure to enjoy them inside the restaurant. The staff was great. Thanks, folks!

Dinner at Viceroy Indian Dining

Another satisfying meal at Viceroy near Perimeter Mall---full of flavor, gracious service. Thanks, folks!

Breakfast at Another Broken Egg near Perimeter Mall

I don't think that I have tried Another Broken Egg before. I very much enjoyed my visit to their location near Perimeter Mall. The staff was extremely gracious and welcoming. My breakfast was hearty and tasty. The chips were the star of my huevos rancheros and everything on top was great. Thanks, folks!

A Change of Pace at Harmony Vegetarian

My usual order at Harmony is salt-and-pepper tofu. This time I decided to mix things up with the vegetarian kung pao chicken. Great stuff, the peanuts really hit the spot. Harmony is renovating and I am excited to see their new setup. Thanks, folks!

Lunch at Blessing Thai Restaurant

I had a short amount of time for a satisfying and healthy lunch. The staff at Blessing Thai was great about getting me a table during their busy period. My curry was great. Thanks, folks!

Pizza and Salad at Mellow Mushroom

More precisely, salad, then pizza. Good food, friendly staff. Thanks, folks!
