Stella Mare Ristorante & Pizzaria
We’ve been on a search for yummy calzone in the North Raleigh area and decided to give Stella Mare a try. We sat outside for our first visit and ordered a pepperoni and sausage calzone and a spinach calzone. I tried the hummus appetizer (I love a particular brand of prepackaged hummus and wanted to...

Weinberg’s The Delicatessen
What to eat, what to eat!? We were out shopping the other day and realized we were starving and wanted lunch pronto. We were in the area of Harris Teeter at Falls and Spring Forest and decided to try out a new-to-us spot: Weinberg’s The Delicatessen. We were seated pretty quickly in the packed restaurant....

Menchie’s Frozen Yogurt
My kids and I saw THE CUTEST character waving at cars while driving up Spring Forest Road at Falls of Neuse Road a few weeks ago and had to check out what he was doing. He looked like a mushroom at first but then we realized he was an ice-cream cone. Further inspection... Continue reading→
On The Border
We were out and about the other day near Triangle Town Center and decided to try out On The Border Mexican Grill & Cantina. I’ve eaten here before, but that was 10 years ago in Colorado. Today I was hoping their salsa was as fresh and amazing as I remembered it to be. I had... Continue reading→
Arby’s Chicken Tenders Triangle Town Center Raleigh NC
By far these are some of the BEST fast food chicken tenders on the market. Due to the volume of the store in North Raleigh by Triangle Town Center Mall they are fried fresh upon each order (in our experience). Yes I have tried any and all tenders from every fast food restaurant and non fast food restaurant. These... Continue reading→
Las Margaritas (Six Forks)
Mmmmmexican is one of our favorite fares for meal time! Las Margaritas, on Six Forks at Celebration Station, is by far our favorite Mexican restaurant in the Raleigh area. We’re regulars there and it’s nice to see the low turnover with their wait staff. They’re always pleasant, friendly and at times funny. I always get... Continue reading→
Piper’s Tavern
A fun place to eat with decent food, Piper’s Tavern is one of our go-to places for lunch or dinner. Piper’s Tavern is located at 8304 Falls of Neuse Road. It’s a bar and grille sort of place, where repeat business is probably the core of this restaurant’s success. They have a live band some... Continue reading→
TGI Fridays
I’ve had my fair share of TGI Friday’s frozen samplers from my local grocery store; it only seemed natural that the real thing would be better than the frozen kind, right? Well, maybe. We had dinner here last night, hoping to get some real good wings or ribs. I’ve been on a bbq rib kick... Continue reading→
IHOP
The Sunday after Thanksgiving and everyone is hungry, but there’s no way I’m cooking! We decided to head over to IHOP at Six Forks and Saw Mill (Celebration Station). The restaurant used to be an Applebees until that was closed down. This restaurant has only recently opened but we had yet to eat there. This... Continue reading→
The Cupcake Shoppe
This saturday was my cheat day for my diet. I was in the mood for something with lots of sugar. I had passed by the Cupcake Shoppe earlier on in the week and made sure to add it to my list of indulgences for the weekend. When we arrived there were a few customers enjoying their purchases at the... Continue reading→
