DUCK Panang Curry!!! @ Thai Bankok Cuisine!!! SO GOOD!!!

$20.82 with tax and tip added Staff is super friendly, cozy place good atmosphere, comfortable seating, staff gave me a free Thai Iced Tea when my order got mixed up, (was just slightly slower than I was expecting, which is no big deal, and wasn't "thai hot", which I didn't mention, so they gave me the Thai Iced Tea for the perceived slowness, so great staff! The Duck Panang Curry was delish, despite lack of any real heat, and plentiful pieces of duck and other fresh veggies throughout dish.  Lunch special came with soup and salad as well!  Its a bit out of the way for me but worth the drive for some decent Thai food!

LOBSTER, LOBSTA, LOBSTAH!!! @ New England Lobster Market & Eatery

$54.90 (3 orders + tax + Beverage) I was up in south-ish San Francisco for the company I work for quarterly meeting and sales kick off event.  After the presentation a few of us broke off from the lunch provided to indulge in some tasty sea food.  So we went to the New England Lobster Market & Eatery as it was 5 min walk from the hotel.  I ended up ordering three menu items, I thought if I was going to try this place out I'd get the three main staples.  I got the Twin Tails, which are just two lobster tails, butter, coleslaw and a half roll (which its the same roll that you get when you order a lobster roll).  The second item was the lobster roll, dressed, which also comes with coleslaw and chips(made in house).  The third item was the lobster corn chowder.   All the items had plenty of lobster, which were delicious, and the place is set up with picnic tables both inside and out for seating and has a...

Fish And Chips Plus Clam Chowder @ The City Fish

$10.00  (+tax and tip/if you like) This little fish and chips place is located in downtown San Jose, CA.  The place isn't very large and the location has  plenty of "interesting characters" milling about outside, as it is downtown San Jose! While the food is certainly four stars IMHO, especially for the value, the decor size and location take it down a notch.  Also make sure you park in a nearby parking garage so as to get validated for parking, otherwise you might be paying around 4-6 bucks extra for parking. Essentially you order at the counter and then find a seat, the food,and sauces, are brought out to you. You aren't really "waited" upon, but we decided to tip regardless.  On the menu they have separate options for panko bread crumb as well as other options for salmon, and other fish prepared in the traditional batter and deep fry style.  You could also get those fish pan fried, baked, etc., but those were typically the same price as y...

Cashew Chicken @ The Joy Luck House

$16.00  (+tax and tip) This place is somewhat tucked away on the central north side of Napa, in a little business center/industrial complex.  We had lunch there around 1pm on a Sunday and we were the only ones in the entire place!  The weekdays from other reviews seems its a rather popular place.  The food is typical fair for Chinese cuisine.  Its tasty food, both with non spicy and spicy, and I recommend going with a dish with at least a little  spice! In the end, I don't think i'd go out of my way to eat here, certainly not an hour and a half drive!  However, if you're in the area be sure try it out, otherwise there are much closer places that are cheaper and have dishes which are more flavorful, in my opinion.
