Taking a break and eating out!

Taking a break from cooking, washing dishes, eating leftovers is just what we all need.
I love to have someone wait on me and be able to relax with my family.
Here are some of our favorite places to eat.......We know the deals, we know where to go for vegetarian food, we know the right time to go. 

Carabbas Italian Grille (we always split meals there and share. Insalata salad and pizza)
Noodles & Company 
Thai Cuisine (before 3:00 pm meals are half the cost)
Big Burrito ( grilled veggie tacos are $2 each)
For a quick lunch: Veggie Burgers at Culver's (makes BK taste like a hockey puck)
Quartino on N. State St. in Chicago http://www.quartinochicago.com/ (tapas small plates)
 (Yes, the 2.5 hr drive is worth it!) I recommend the eggplant parmesan, caprese salad, polenta fries dipped in roasted red pepper sauce.
Jimmy Johns (quick, I mean quick veggie subs)
Kazoopy's Pizza Mattawan (they have a good deal on two large pizzas)
Waterstreet: They have a great deli selection of yummy lunch specialties
Food Dance: Good food, pricey
Zazios: This is a fun place to eat but also pricey
Union Grille: Spinach Feta Burger & Portabella fries are amazing
(part of the millennium restaurants in Kalamazoo.
Oven grilled pizza at Bravo Restaurante', on Portage Road by the airport (I am good friend with the owners, since I used to work for them.)


OTB (On The Border) Grandville, MI 
We like to go up to Rivertown Crossings Mall and when we do...we like to eat at OTB.
I ordered the stuffed qua so pablano pepper 
It is a delicious Mexican grille that has vegetarian options. Instead of re fried beans we get black beans. Instead of the Mexican rice made with chicken stock, they offer cilantro rice. They are always offering vegetarian options and serve plenty of food for your money. One of our favorites there is fajitas. We order 2 and it serves more than 4. They gave the boys a free sundae, & gave a us a new bag of chips and a tub of salsa to take home for free. As we walked out, they gave us a wooden nickle for $5 off our next purchase. They were extra nice!!

                                                   
Dan ordered a custom made grilled veggie burrito



CARRABBAS TAG PIC PAC $10

CARRABBAS KIDS ALFREDO $5

SPLITTING AN OVEN FIRED CARRABBAS PIZZA IS A CHEAPER WAY TO EAT OUT. TWO TOPPING $9
There are many many more places we like to eat and I will update this part of my blog as I have time.
