Taiko Brentwood
Thursday, April 20, 2006 7:30 8 CommentsTaiko is almost Japanese comfort food to me. Aside from being one of the first places my wife and I went when we started dating, their menu offers a wide range of solid Japanese food. From sushi to tempura to udon and cooked fish entrees, there’s something for everyone.

McDonalds - Is the New Campaign Working?
Wednesday, April 19, 2006 20:56 17 CommentsGreetings again!
I’m currently working on an analysis of McDonald’s restaurants, which is a popular subject in business school. My project even requires me to go to a few McDonald’s in the area and sample the menu. Isn’t it nice to have projects where the purpose is to eat? Okay, so [...]

Sunday, April 16, 2006 12:28 10 CommentsIf there is anything that I love eating more, it has to be fried chicken. There’s nothing like tearing through a crunchy exterior to find a plump, juicy piece of meat waiting for you. It’s almost like a present. Sadly, most, if not all, of the fast-food type fried chicken places are [...]
The Corner Place

Where are you eating this Easter Weekend?
Friday, April 14, 2006 6:03 5 CommentsIt’s Easter Weekend, time for brunches with ham and eggs and maybe a beef roast here and there. Does anyone have any secret Easter finds, worthy brunches, good take out, something non-traditional?
