Your Pie (Restaurant Review)

The concept of this restaurant is great. Everybody gets their own personal 10 inch pizza with whatever toppings you want. I chose the “Southern Heat.” Hot sauce, chicken, mozzarella with blue cheese dressing on the side. My wife was not as adventurous, she got a basic pizza with meatballs.

Their execution of the pizzas was poor. Both my wife and I thought the bottom of the crust was burnt. It left a horrible aftertaste in my mouth for most of the afternoon. It was overpriced for what we got. Even with a $3.50 coupon our total was still almost $15. Won’t be going back.

Creamsicle Smoothie (Recipe)

(I’d call this a homemade Orange Julius, but I think that name is a trademark.)

Ingredients:
2 scoops orange sherbet
1.5 cups orange juice (fresh squeezed if you’ve got it)
1/3 cup pasteurized egg product
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
banana (optional)
4 ice cubes

Place all ingredients in a blender. Whirl for a minute. Makes 1 or 2 servings. Some people think I’m crazy when I tell them to put egg in the drink, but that’s what gives it the proper consistency. And it adds protein!

Sea-Chicken (Restaurant Review)

I believe this establishment is aiming to be fast-food seafood. They serve mostly what I consider to be Calabash style fried seafood and chicken.

It’s mainly a drive-through/take-out kinda place. Not much room to eat inside. They have a small patio outside.  Counter service only.

I was really in the mood for seafood today, so I got a fried flounder sandwich. It was very good for the price. (My entire meal including fries and a drink was under $7.) I could tell the fish was frozen, not fresh because it tasted a little “fishy.”

I’ll probably go back again to try their “Seadog” which is haddock dipped in beer-batter, fried and served up like a hot dog. I definitely recommend the place for quickly satisfying a seafood craving.
