Review: ASUS

So far so good,

Quality laptop I am currently using, with incredible battery life, lightweight, and ultra powerful.

No joke, I got 12 hours battery life on this thing. And not like "left on standby, battery last 12 hrs" but like "Entire day of using it and it still didn't die, with a 25% left marker at 3:51 minutes left. battery saving mode"

Insane. Awesome. Carry this thing everywhere.
I'm not going to list full specs of this specific machine because every laptop is different and that wouldnt do you any good. But from the cheap to the expensive models, ASUS has it down.

A++ best of the year.

Review: Home Depot AC Repair

Had a couple AC repair guys come over, Home Depot's was by far the best...

Explained everything thoroughly, very kind, very polite.
Price? About 3,000 dollars cheaper than the other average estimates.

Pretty awesome.

Yes this review is short.... that's all I have to say

Review: Flip

Flip off Howell Mill, near 75.
Holy crap. Delicious.

Some of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Bleu burger? Yes Please.
Onion Rings? No thanks. Seriously, crazy fried onion rings that taste like nothing.
But back to the burgers. holy crap, awesome. Like an explosion of bleu cheese and meat flavors.

Now for the shakes. Nitrogren shakes, cold delicious and crazy flavorful. Krispy Kreme, Rice Krispy shakes.
Yum. Nutella shake? Yes. Best shake ever? Yes.

Ok, now I need to go there I made myself hungry.

Review: Ru San's

Don't go.

To put it better, if you like sushi, don't go. If you like fried stuff dipped in sweet sauce, go.

From their lunch buffet to their dollar rolls to their special rolls, this is one big slap in the face to sushi. Maybe its because the chefs arent sushi chefs, theyre just minimum wage sushi template-followers.
Lunch buffet is laughable, with three fourths of their rolls coming deep fried and drenched in sauce, it doesnt matter what the sushi itself is itll taste like an expensive french fry dipped in sugar.
To be fair though this place is cheap. Or wait... is it? Let me refresh my memory...

Now I'm not saying this is the most expensive place, it is for sure one of the cheaper sushi restaurants, but for what you're paying, there are much better alternatives.
You may as well spend an extra 3 bucks for the 13 dollar Zen on Ten Special Roll at Zen on Ten: http://zenontenatlanta.com/

Now for you sushi snobs out there who are looking for a great sushi place with no concern for the price-per-ounce of food, look no further than MF Sushi.

Incredible food, the Kinjo brothers certainly know the art of sushi, and will beautifully demonstrate their talent the moment that first piece of fish literally melts in your mouth. The location is not ideal, as in bad neighborhood and difficult to park... so take a Krav Maga class first and then head on over.

MF Sushi, best sushi in Atlanta in my nook.

Review: Steel Sushi

My review of Steel Sushi off of W Peachtree and tenth street (across the street from Mac's)
is somewhat limited. By that I mean that I have only been there for happy hour on Wednesdays.
By that I mean every Wednesday. By that I mean ever Wednesday for the past 2 years.

Here's why:
They offer free, let's repeat that, FREE sushi to anybody with a ten dollar minimum. That means two of their 5 dollar appetizers and you get plates and plates of free sushi.
Not just little california rolls either. They have shrimp tempura rolls, spicy tuna rolls, hawaiian rolls etc.
And the appetizers? Lettuce wraps are to die for, delicious crab rangoons (you know, that actually has crab in it, unlike Lucky-Buddha-Chinese-Mandarin-Happy-China type deep fried imitation crab meat), edamame, chicken or beef satay, and incredible fried calamari.

Needless to say, you wont find too many places where you can get a nice appetizer, allyoucaneat fresh sushi, and a glass of wine for 10 bucks. Best of its kind in my nook.

But be nice, tip for what its worth, not for the 10 dollar bill.

Review: Pacific Grille

There are not too many places that I enjoy eating at in a food court at a mall.
Pacific Grille inside of Lenox Mall is one of those places.

Delicious meats (try the Thai spicy or pacific chicken) that is, that's right, actual meat.
No meat hose here, you get sliced chicken breast in delicious sauce on a bed of white or fried rice.

How about some sides? You got it. Healthy options of potatoes, mixed vegetables are actually edible! I know right? You don't have to chew on another rubber broccoli piece. Yay!

Try it out, it beats sakkio japan any day in my nook.

"The owner, I learned, has been in the restaurant industry for 15 years and wanted a way to bring good quality restaurant food into the food courts. "
