Venue Sports Bar and Grill (Fairview)

Was in the mood for live music... found a neighborhood sports bar that caters to an older crowd in Fairview!  Ordered Chips with Salsa and Queso, Tijuana Fries, and a Swiss Mushroom Burger.  Enjoyed some Shiner Bock on Tap and tasted the Ace Tea - a vodka mixed drink.  Top it all off with live music from Southern Rock and a good time was had!  Will keep this one in our back pocket, possibly for karaoke night!

How About Joe's Crab Shack!

Went to Joe's Crab Shack the other day.  Ordered a Salmon entree that include Cajun Rice and a Cream Sauce with Shrimp in it.  Really liked it; definitely satisfied the seafood craving.  For appetizers, went with the Classic Sampler that included Jalapeno Cheese Balls, Spinach/Crab Dip, and Calamari.  Others ordered Barbecue Flavored Snow Crab and the Shrimp Trio.  All left full...!

Carino's Italian Grill (College Station, Texas)

While on the road, stopped at Carino's Italian Grill for Lunch.  Tried the Italian Sausage Panini with Shoestring Fries and a side Caesar Salad.  Others in the group went for Chicken Alfredo and a Fish entree that called for a creamy sauce with Jalapenos added for spice!  Overall, liked the taste of the food.... Had been to one while on the East Coast; really liked the wood fire oven cooked Margherita Pizza!

Thai Box at the Village (Allen)

Had a hankering for Thai food the other day.  Made a run up the road to the Village in Allen to the Thai Box.  Made it just before closing and was able to order our favorites - Thai Fried Rice, Red Curry, and Tom Yum Soup.  Added orders for Mini Eggrolls!

Food is still tasty!  Going to come back again for sure.

Tino's Too (Plano) for Dinner

Had dinner at Tino's Too in Plano for Dinner.  Food was tasty as always!  Ordered Chicken Fajitas, a Chimichanga, and Carne Asada. Chips and Salsa for appetizers along with Fried Chiles.

Good eats!  Be careful with the Fried Chiles, some may find them too spicy.  Ordered the Carne Asada cooked medium, it was.... just be ready to cutout a lot of fat around the ribeye.  Else, a very good and filling meal.

FYI:  Still recommending the Steak or Chicken Picado as our favorite dish.  Spicy, tasty, and filling!
