Sake Sushi and Korean BBQ
Everyone knows I'm frugal. It's no secret, then, that I like to take advantage of what I perceive to be a "good deal." Imagine my surprise when I'm informed of this all-you-can-eat Sushi and Korean BBQ place across town. Korean BBQ sounded good to me, so with ZERO intentions of trying sushi, and about a month's worth of convincing from my lady, I treated the family to this really nice restaurant and paid $30 each for the four members of my family (lady, two children) to enjoy this "all-you-can-eat buffet."

Part 2: Would You Like A Fight With That?
In the first installment of this two-part article series ("Part 1: Would You Like A Fight With That?"), we examined how threats of violence—and actual violence—at the some 14,000 McDonald's restaurants all across the United States has now come to the forefront of public attention. While we may have all witnessed our fellow humans behaving badly anywhere two or more people are gathered these days, take one look at your Facebook or Twitter feed, and you are very likely to see a video of McDonald's customers, workers, managers, or a combination thereof arguing or fighting somewhere in America.

Part 1: Would You Like A Fight With That?
Introduction Unfortunately, unless you have been living as a modern day, technology-enabled shut-in, having every meal you eat that is prepared outside your home delivered to your door by Uber Eats or Grubhub, we have all seen it happen at one time or another. Whether the setting be fast-food or fancy, dining in, or driving through, we have all witnessed behaviors that, shall we say, at least—"back in my day," says the AARP-card carrier here—gotten you sent to the principal's office. We have seen it on the part of customers behaving badly—with one another, or with restaurant workers, or sometimes, a combination of all. We have seen workers arguing with each other, or with their managers. We have heard the yelling. We have seen the confrontations. We have witnessed the threats. And yes, sometimes we have even seen the punches—or drinks as the case may be—thrown.

The Noisy Lobster—Avon Beach—Mudeford
A year ago, April 2018, we had a fabulous lunch at The Noisy Lobster. Good food, good service and in a good atmosphere—a rare triptych of qualities. So, it was with a slight degree of trepidation that we decided to return a year later. "Trepidation" because we wondered if that triptych of qualities would have been maintained over the last 12 months and we would come away from this second visit disappointed.

Amazing Restaurants in California to Keep an Eye On
Exploring and trying new dishes is amazing, which is exactly what I did when I moved to California. There's definitely a lot of popular restaurants but I've chosen three best places, each different from the last: one healthy life-changing, another is a traditional hot noddle restaurant and of course a taco place, duh.

Part 1—What is a Restaurant Today?
So, you want to open a restaurant? Well, you are not alone. In terms of new business startups, restaurants are always—always—at the top of the list. Why? Because many people simply want to be restaurateurs. Maybe it's because they are actually—or believe they are—good cooks. Maybe it's because they have their mom's "secret" family recipes. Maybe it's because they are actually trained chefs. Maybe it is because they have worked for other people's restaurants and want to take what they've learned and put that knowledge to work for themselves. Maybe it is because they want to make a bunch of money. And maybe, and it's often the case, people see themselves as being "the toast of the town," celebrated for being the proprietor of the new, "it" place to be on the dining scene.

Mission BBQ—Thanking Vets with Brisket
Hello, and welcome back to Local Flavors where I find new dining experiences in the Nashville area. Now, originally I didn't intend to cover chains in this column. It was supposed to be about spotlighting little-known spots that could be missed, similar to the purpose of my Second Chances series. However, I do feel it worth talking about the Mission BBQ chain for three important reasons:

The Best Gluten Free Places
Hurts Donuts: There are a couple of awesome donut places that will dedicate one or two days out of every week to ONLY making gluten-free donuts so that there is no cross contamination. So far, my favorite place is Hurts Donut. They are the bomb. They make so many crazy donuts and really just have a delicious recipe for those fluffy circles of heaven. Costa Vida: I love Mexican food, like a lot. I personally do not like corn tortillas very much, however. They are tough, thick, and flavorless. Costa Vida is like a way better Chipotle and is even just a little better than Qdoba. Their corn tortillas had me freaking out because I didn't believe they were corn, there was no way. They were so soft and so good, I could not believe it. Costa Vida has a kitchen routine procedure for people with gluten allergies, they care. <3 They take off their gloves, wash their hands, put new gloves on, replace all the cooking tools, wipes the grill, and cook your food on top of foil. Yogurt Land, Creamistry, and Amorino Gelato: Regular ice-cream is usually not gluten-free and I always have to remind myself of that. These places are amazing because everything they serve is gluten free, besides some toppings at the bar. For those of you don't know, Yogurt Land is frozen yogurt, Creamistry is milk-based ice-cream that they flash freeze with liquid nitrogen. And Amorino is this fancy gelato and sorbet cafe that makes those cute roses made of ice cream that you see on Instagram. Kozy Kitchen: I have actually not been here, but it was recommended to me by a waiter after I told him I have the allergy. He use to work there and told me that this place is entirely gluten-free. They make waffles, pancakes, bread (toast), muffins, and other breakfast items.
