All day Wednesday Aqua has their happy hour goin on. $5 sushi rolls and $2 pints of Stella. It's like a slice of heaven and it is just right downtown. Sometimes, if you are lucky, you can watch Finding Nemo on the big screen as you eat a spicy tuna roll.
Something Else Deli has been around for a while, probably because they focus on a few lunch items and do them very well. This is not a fancy place but it is a great place to meet and have lunch and they even let you order ahead online so it is ready when you get there.
My mom took us to this little cafe for breakfast a while back and it is absolutely adorable. My husband had some loose tea that he picked out from about a dozen different choices and we all had some kind of salad or sandwich too. Very cute and comfortable and is kid friendly as well. Since it's right across the street from Audubon Park it would be great place to pop into and have a morning coffee or an afternoon breakfast after a walk in the park.
I have heard good things about this place so my husband and I decided to spend our 1st anniversary here and we were not disappointed. I checked out their website which is totally cool, even if you never go to the restaurant, at least go to their website. We had a four course meal which included a cheese fondue of your choice served with veggies, granny smith apple, and bread, a salad of your choice, the main course which included, beef, chicken, pork, lobster, shrimp, ravioli, and a myriad of dipping sauces and then there was the dessert...oh the dessert. You are allowed to choose which style of chocolate fondue you want, once you settle on that they bring you brownies, rice krispies, bananas, Oreo encrusted marshmallows, angel food cake, strawberries and the entire kitchen sink to dip into your bowl of paradise. We were there for about 4 hours and spent $100 including the tip, a photo they took of us, and an anniversary card that was waiting for us at the table. We didn't think this was so bad, about $12.50 an hour per person for a great experience. The ambiance is beautiful and very private so it's perfect for a special occasion. Check out their happy hour where 2 people can get 2 martinis and split either a cheese or chocolate fondue for $22. That's a damn good deal and well worth just the atmosphere. Melt into a pot of deliciousness, I dare you.
No, you weren't thinking of somewhere else, you where thinking of Something Else. I stopped by here on my way to work for lunch a couple weeks ago and I was pleasantly surprised. You really wouldn't expect a deli in its location and I have driven passed it a million times and never seen it, but I definitely see it now. I just had a regular old sandwich but you could tell that it was fresh and it hit the right spot. They have a hodgepodge of different kinds of house made salads ranging from green salad to potato, macaroni, and fruit salad. Grab an espresso and have a sandwich or scratch made soup and trot along back to work.
I grew up on a farm and we had Velveeta and ham sandwiches everyday at noon. Now that I am older I have continued with the sandwich fetish but I have liberated myself from the artery clogging Velveeta. I love sandwiches that are different and that you can't get everywhere you go. I had a turkey sandwich with fresh bread, sprouts, cream cheese, and cranberries...the sparks flew. This is a local and cute little shop and I like to support local shops over the ubiquitous Subways and Quiznos. Do it!
