It was exciting news when the Boat House decided to open its doors for lunch services from Friday to Sunday. A prix fixe lunch menu is offered and diners can choose from either 2 or 3 course options. The best part – not everyone at the table has to have the same number of courses. […] Read more…

Menu items at Xi’an Famous Foods include various cold or hot noodle dishes like biang biang noodles, dumplings, rouguamo/roujiamo (Chinese burgers), meat […] Read more…
If you just want a fast cheap eat for lunch around Civic, here are a few spots (in no particular order). Burmese Curry Place I think it’s safe to say that most city workers know about Burmese Curry Place. It was so sad when it shut down a few years ago, but it opened back […] Read more…

These are the only sourdough […] Read more…
