December 30, 2014 - Which Wich - Scottsdale, Arizona

I stopped in here for dinner when I was staying with Judson and Jonah one evening before going to a movie.

This is an interesting franchise fast food establishment.  You walk into the store.  You will find a rack with small brown bag type sacks…pick out the bag that is the sandwich you want.  I want a Ham and Cheese Sandwich so I picked out the bag that said, “Ham & Pork”.  Then I colored in the circle for “Ham”.  I didn’t want any extras so I left that section blank.

Which Style of Bread?  I chose “White”.

Hot Or Not?  I chose “Hot”.

Size? I chose Small 7” (there is also Medium 10.5” and Large 14”)

Work Your Wich?

Cheeses?  I chose “Swiss”

Spreads and Sauces?  I didn’t choose anything.

Mustards?  I chose “Dijon”.

Mayos? I chose “Horseradish”.

Dressings?  I didn’t choose anything.

Onions?  I didn’t choose anything.

Veggies and More?  I didn’t choose anything

Oils & Spices?  I didn’t choose anything.

Place your order and it arrives in a few minutes in the bag which you used to order.  Pretty easy…get what you want fast food.  Try it...you are never disappointed...because it is exactly what you ordered.

December 23, 2014 - Cruiser's Cafe 66 Bar and Grill - Williams, Arizona

Joshua, Jody, Judson and Jonah Hayes ate dinner with me here before boarding the Polar Express.  

Both Joshua and I ordered the Ultimate Porker Burger – Angus burger piled high with pulled smoked BBQ pork and cole slaw topped with kosher salted bun.  It was another of those burgers where you couldn’t possibly taste the whole burger in one bit.  It was piled high.   The pulled pork was tasty and very good.  The burger was also very good…so I ate the meat (with my fork)…and not the bun.   It was just a regular bun..and cold. The bun could have been toasted and served hot.  I don’t know why restaurants don’t do this just every time.  It’s always a winner.  

That's my only complaint - there is just nothing worse than biting into something hot and hit a cold bun.  It destroys the whole eating experience.

Judson tried the half rack of ribs…and said that it was good…and that the BBQ sauce was good.  Jody tried the BBQ brisket sandwich…and liked it.

This café is decorated to the hilt with Route 66 memorabilia…and has a very nice gift shop attached.  I liked the atmosphere.  Judson said that the mens room doors were old car doors.

December 4, 2014 - Mount Athos Restaurant - Florence, Arizona

I visited this Greek Restaurant that was originally out of New York City today with Kitty Williams and Margaret Kase.   Mount Athos Restautant and Cafe specializes in Greek, American & Italian fine cuisine.  It was opened in Florence in 2005 under the ownership of Pete Koulouris.

Kitty and Margaret each ordered the Deluxe Gyro Sandwich served with a Greek Salad and Fries.  I ordered the Classic Gyro Sandwich served with a Greek Salad.

My Classic Gyro with a Greek Salad...the Greek olives were great...as was the Feta Cheese and the dressing.  The Gyro was loaded with meat, tomatoes and onions.  Each plate was served with one delicious Dolmadakia - stuffed grape leaves.
