Sometimes I wake up craving Mexican food.  More specifically chips and salsa, with refried beans.  I can’t really explain it as it only happens once in a blue moon.  It is kind of like my 8th wonder of my foodie world.  So last weekend, it happened, the random morning Mexican craving, and luckily it was [...]

Being a Monday-through-Friday-8-to-5 working drone I relish in that feeling of post-work Friday.  There is nothing sweeter than the taste of freedom.  The joy of knowing that there is no work in the near future brings a great big smile to my face.  Don’t get me wrong I like my career but I definitely like [...]

Tonight my family and I decided to dine at the sports-themed restaurant & bar, Leon’s — aka Leon’s on the Restless Ribbon — aka Leon’s Brookside, for the first time.  I’ve been curious about Leon’s because according to Urbanspoon it’s one of the best burger joints in town. I thought this would be the perfect [...]

Although I’ve been feeling under the weather with a pretty nasty cold this past weekend, my husband was dying to get out of the house and try some place new.  I was worried I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the meal with my tastebuds not at their best, but I packed up my tissues and cough [...]

There are restaurants which I drive by consistently and say to myself, “I need to check that place out”.  Sonoma Bistro & Wine Bar has been one of those restaurants for me the past couple years and yesterday Christine and I finally made it out to this quaint Bistro in the heart of Brookside.  Finding parking was a difficult [...]

These delicious answers to a Tulsa sweet tooth craving go above and beyond the ingenuity of a simple piece of pie or cake: 1. Peaches and Cream Sopapilla Relleno @ El Guapo’s Cantina This dessert features a warm, crispy sopapilla filled with honey and caramelized peaches. It is served with vanilla ice cream, topped with whipped cream and [...]

Cherry Berry is good.  It’s no wonder these happy little self-serve yogurt joints are popping up all over town.  Last weekend we decided to stop in the new Cherry Berry located on Brookside next to Fuji to check it out. Cherry Berry has lots of tasty flavors.  Two of our favorites are “tart” and “birthday cake”. [...]

KEO Asian Cuisine has been on my radar of restaurants to review since I first saw it sprout up in Brookside a few years ago.  The restaurant has a modern decor and KEO boasts of fresh ingredients and a fusion of flavors from Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Malaysia.  I love food from all these regions, [...]

A couple weeks ago my husband and I decided to try the new Brookside hot spot – Wolfgang Puck Bistro. We had been eagerly anticipating it’s opening for several months as it seemed like the renovation progress was moving at a snail’s pace. Would it be as good as hoped for or a disappointment? Considering our [...]

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and when a restaurant rises above my lofty early morning expectations I get excited.  Along comes Blue Moon Cafe with a diverse breakfast menu that consists of interesting dishes such as Lox & Bagel and Migas (a Tex-Mex dish using eggs, tortilla pieces, cheese, vegetables and various spices).  Christine [...]
