Every week, we'll take a look at a locally-owned eatery.
Meetings always go better on a full stomach, and Chief’s Diner is certainly the place to go if you want to be full. My dining companion and I were in total agreement on this. The meal sizes were plentiful, and the prices were right where they should be for a diner – affordable. From the menu, for two: The eggs were the best example of over-medium I’ve had to date, not too yolky, not too firm – spot-on here. The hash was tasty but was not my ideal “extra crispy.” If you want really well-done hash, I guess you have to stress it a bit more. The monkey bread French toast is quite a treat; think of the center of a cinnamon roll, basted in egg and grilled — an absolute must-try. My fellow diner enjoyed his French toast and his sausage, as it was…

I have a huge appetite first thing in the morning, so breakfast is always on my mind when I wake up. I have met my match, something I cannot eat by myself – and that’s the breakfast at English Muffin. My guest and I decided to split an omlette, with an additional order of toast and split an order of stuffed French toast. Truthfully, I am glad we did, because despite splitting, neither of us cleaned our plates. The portions here are huge and filling, so do not come with a light appetite. Sampling from the menu: Restaurant was surprisingly quiet when we arrived around 9:30 a.m., but began to fill in. Waitstaff are attentive and persistently pleasant, which helped ease my stomach’s growl due to the delay in the kitchen. Other things to note: …

It is an extreme challenge for me to find quality sushi; it is even harder for me to find a $19.99 all-you-can-eat sushi dinner special, yet I have done it — no — Wasabi Japanese Sushi Bar & Restaurant has done it. On Monday ($19.99) and Tuesday ($24.99) nights Wasabi offers all-you-can-eat sushi dinners. The dinners include endless side dishes, such as: miso soup, nime chow and Asian chicken wings. With about 13 different maki rolls to choose from, a sushi lover can delight in the presentation, freshness and, of course, bottomless options. From the menu, for two: Other things to note about Wasabi: Total bill for two sushi specials: $43.18 + 20-percent tip = $51.82 (Author’s Note: While this seems pricier than my usual local-eatery wrap-…
