Suggestions for Calgary's best bread?
- g
- gourmethunter Oct 12, 2007 10:08 AM
I'm planning a baby shower and I'm serving afternoon tea which of course means tea sandwiches. Calgary CHers where do I find the best bread? I had one suggestion from a friend who said to use sandwich bread (square slices) found at Costco... but I'd like something local and super fresh. Any suggestions you have will be most welcomed! TIA
A lot depends on what type of bread you wish to make tea sandwiches from (since if you're going with a traditional english style, it calls for white bread). I dont have much experience with white bread, but here are two good places.
My personal favourite bakery is Manuel Latruwe. Expensive, but their walnut pecan bread, and blue cheese bread, toast up fantastically to make a great addition to a nice quality finger sandwich.
I also patronize Rustic Sourdough Bakery for good fresh bread. Their pita/focaccia, as well as some of their heartier breads make for excellent sandwiches as well.
re: Major_9000
Thanks yen, thanks Major. I was looking at COBS (Crowfoot) since hearing good things...but I tend to trust Chers more since we're all about the food heh. COB's website suggests slicing loaves lengthwise to make sandwich assembly easier which makes me think if I request this while at the bakery they won't look at me as if I'm nuts.
re: gourmethunter
I think both places are the kind of bakery's that would accommodate your requests. The owners of Urban Baker also own Big Fish/Deluxe Diner and I've eaten lengthwise sliced Tuscan Bread with my Po'Boy sandwiches at Big Fish, in case that helps, lol.
re: Major_9000
Urban Baker is good - i completely forgot about them. Im not a huge COBS fan, but in a pinch, they make ok bread. At least it's fresh.
re: gourmethunter
Where in Crowfoot is the COBS? Finding anything in that place smaller than Safeway stresses me out! It would be great for when I can't drag myself further south.
re: alex8alot
COBS is in the strip mall that has Wendy's on one end. There is a UPS store, M&M and a really good travel store in that part too.
The market where Marinnuci's used to be in Crowfoot has some decent breads too. New name is something like Plate It Up or Serving Plate. That's in the strip behind the theaters facing Chapters.
re: sharonanne
thank you. Wow, I am in and out of that area all the time, and had not known about any of these things.
re: alex8alot
If you're coming south on Nosehill Drive take the first right past John Laurie, which is Crowfoot Road then the first right again onto Crowfoot Crescent: COBS Unit 107-150 Crowfoot Crescent NW
I'll be heading there for 7:00am tomorrow :-)
re: gourmethunter
See below re this morning's COBS experience.
I love the Cape Seed loaf at COBS. It is rather sturdy, so would be great for tea sandwiches.
I hope no one yells at me. Always posting the cheap eats, I find that the smell of Chinese T&T supermarket baking bread is heavenly. THey are the best place for sweet breads, baked fresh everyday. My favorites are the taro swirled bread and the milk bread(normal white and perfectly square).
There is a good bread bakery in the strip mall opposite Northland. The mall closer to Crowchild Trail not the one with the Korean market. Prairie Mill I think is the name.
One of my absolute faves is the rosemary sourdough at Urban Baker. They bake different breads on different days, so you might want to call ahead.
Not sure if it is appropriate for tea sandwiches, but if you like German/European bread, Gunthers bakery does a great schrotbrot, and various types of rye breads and buns.
City bakery also has some really nice stuff.

re: feuerzeug
Try the Honey Wholegrain at CostCo - made by a local bakery right here in Calgary - it's lovely.
Disclaimer - I designed it :-)
re: graemejw
What does that mean you "designed it"...the bread, the packaging?? Just curious.
Lakeview Bakery just off Crowchild has a great multigrain (or 7 grain?) organic bread. I'm from Edmonton and drive to Calgary to load up.
re: asiandelight
Thanks asiandelight...I would have gone to Lakeview Bakery today after my trip to the Calgary Farmer's Market but they were already closed (bad planning on my part) and since we're up in the burbs in the NW I'm probably just going to go search out COBS in the morning.
Update: I scoured the city this morning and learned some interesting things (aside from the fact that I need to plan better)
~ Eiffel Tower Bakery no longer exists....correction, the NW location at 25th Av & 4th St (still listed on their website) is closed...I didn't have the time or the inclinaton to look for the 17th Av shop. Signs in the windows in the NW shop indicate new owners are opening Jan 2008.
~ COBS bread had just one type of bread available. ONE. Cape Seed. Not really what I was looking for for my crowd but I'm intrigued so I buy a loaf. And the clerk looked at me like I was nuts when I asked her to slice it lengthwise. Me: Your website suggests to ask that the loaf be sliced lengthwise for some of COBS recipes? Clerk: It does? We don't slice loaves that way.
~ Urban Baker: Excellent Tuscan loaves available at opening. Picked up two, sliced widthwise (although lengthwise was available). Wonderful rustic bread with excellent texture. "Tea" sandwich idea morphed into small rustic sandwiches and since the event was fairly casual it worked well.
~ Manuel Latruwe: Steady stream of regulars into the store, one of whom saw me floundering with the front line staff and went to find Manuel in the back (staff were trying to suggest I make up my sandwiches (which would probably be 100+ small ones) with baguette...I knew I didn't have the time to do all that cutting etc..and it wasn't the presentation I was looking for... Well, Manuel emerged from the back and I explained what I needed and he recommended a simple whole wheat and to have the bread cut lengthwise to maximize use of the loaf. Knowing my audience so to speak whole wheat was better than the more decadent breads I was gazing at on the back wall - to say nothing of the pasteries! IMHO ML was well worth the extra dollar or so a loaf for the whole wheat (the specialty breads I'm sure were more...) but my bill for one white(I'm sure there's a better name for it but it escapes me at the moment) and one whole wheat loaf was $7.50. I can easily spend $6 for two loaves of Dempsters Wholegrain freshly thawed bread at Superstore. The extra $1.50 is well, well, well worth it. My culinary vocabulary, or lack thereof, fails me when trying to describe how good this bread was. It held up perfectly to the sandwich fillings, even the thicker herbed goat cheese and cucumber filling didn't cause it to tear; yet when you take a bite it yields to the pressure and then the remaining piece has the elasticity(if that's the right term) to snap back into place.
Long story short: Manuel Latruwe & Urban Baker will be top of the list when I am in the mood for real bread in the future. Thank you everyone for your input! As always CHers advice was right on the mark!
re: gourmethunter
Hmm, the couple of times I've been to COBS, they had quite an assortment of breads available.
Urban Baker is good, except the last time I went they were pretty well sold out of everything - and I got there at 10am!
Good WW bread is perhaps the most difficult bread to make, especially at our altitude, so good on Latruwe.
re: Shazam
If you ever venture out to Canmore, check out the bread produced at the Gourmet Croissant!! Perfect for sandwiches & an interesting square shape as well which makes for long, thick slices.
I pretty much concur that UB & ML produce some of the best bread in the City. Sunterra also do a good job, most of their bread is from scratch & they do make a pretty decent sourdough.
Check out City Bakery in Bridgeland as well - very nice fresh bread on a daily basis in the store attached to their bakery.
Eiffel Tower on 17th Ave is still open.
re: graemejw
Thanks for the tip graemejw I will definitely check out Gourmet Croissant when next in Canmore. Changes in the seasons usually bring about a family outing to the mountains and I always like taking the kids to somewhere other than the chain restos.
Glad to hear Eiffel Tower still has the 17th Av store. It's been awhile since I went to City Bakery...I'll have to check them out again soon :-)
re: gourmethunter
you won't be dissapointed with Gourmet Croissant - best Danish pastries I've tried anywhere in Western Canada.......
re: gourmethunter
I was a bit disappointed with the selection at the Sherwood Park COBs store on a Saturday morning- it was not especially early. They bake fresh every day, but apparently they're not of the start at 4am variety of bakery. There seemed to be quite a lot in the shaping and proofing stage, but only a few varieties were ready by about 11am. They had the basics ready to go, but were missing most of the fancy items and the fruit bread.
And unless they've got a really specialized bread slicer with no adjustability (which would surprise me because anything I buy there, they offer to slice-not just the ones baked in a pan, but the more free-form items too) they should just be able to turn it around and slice it lengthwise.

iLounge Game Spotlight: Modern Combat 5: Blackout
Modern Combat 5: Blackout ($7) is one of the most high-profile iOS games to be released this year. Blackout is the latest first-person shooter in Gameloft's Call of Duty-esque series, and this time around, there are no in-app purchases to be found. However, an internet connection is required to play at all times.
As Modern Combat players will expect, Blackout has a great presentation. From the seriously impressive, detailed graphics, to the immersive sound and all of the requisite bells and whistles one would expect, there's no doubt that Gameloft's newest is a truly premium title. It's important to note the frame rate during the game was solid for us on an iPad mini with Retina display, whether in single-player or multiplayer mode.
Single-player missions in Modern Combat 5 are fairly short, but more challenging than one might imagine. Players are dropped into a number of exotic locales for various types of missions. The quick levels keep the game from getting tedious — at the start of the game, you soon find yourself manning a small gunboat in Venice, and before you know it, you're shooting your way through Japan. There's a story, but it doesn't stand out in any way. The AI in the game is smart enough — if enemies were any smarter, the game would be too challenging, simply due to inevitable control issues.
About those issues — when playing a touchscreen FPS, controls are going to be tricky. There's just no way around it. In Modern Combat 5, the default settings have you using the same thumb to look around as you use to press the shoot button. When you're trying to walk and move around obstacles as well, it can become too much action for too few buttons. Blackout's controls are decent enough, but gamers used to playing computer or console FPS games might have a tough time adjusting. We'd recommend adjusting the sensitivity and other control options as soon as you're given a chance. It's unfortunate that Blackout doesn't support MFi controllers, at least as of yet — why even have an iOS game controller if not for games like this? We expect controller support will be added in an update.
For many people, multiplayer will be the main draw to Modern Combat 5. There's plenty to offer, with a classic free-for-all deathmatch in addition to a number of different team modes including VIP mode, capture the flag, team battle, and squad battle — the last of which requires players to join their own Blackout squad for battles. It all runs as well as you'd expect, but novices aren't going to stand much of a chance. The learning curve is steep when you're faced with opponents who know their way around Modern Combat.
Modern Combat 5: Blackout has a lot to offer. We haven't even touched on the extra features, weapons upgrades, special events, achievements, and other things that will keep gamers coming back for more. Many iOS gamers will consider this an automatic download, and rightfully so. But those new to touchscreen FPS games should understand there's going to be a learning curve before dropping $7 on a game that could prove a bit frustrating. The constant internet connection needed to play the game will be a major downside to some, as well. Overall, though, Blackout still earns our strong recommendation.

Thomas Sturges Identified as Miley Cyrus Snugglerby Mischalova at . Comments
Thank you, loyal readers of The Hollywood Gossip.
A few hours ago, we asked fans to help us ID the mystery man spotted cuddling with Miley Cyrus in so many recent photographs.
Based on reader responses and some serious searching of the Internet, this lucky fellow has been identified as Thomas Sturges.
We don't know much else about the young chap, except that he must have some major game to land a cutie such as Miley Cyrus. Do you think he's her boyfriend?
The celebrity gossip world is buzzing over rumors that Thomas Sturges has seen Miley Cyrus in more than just her bra. What do you think?
i think miley is being ridiculous. not to be rude, but shes just been making tons of poor choices and i dont think shes really been thinking of all her fans. whether she remembers or not, most of her fans are now little kids. my 5 year old cousin is obsessed with her and shes being a bad influence to all them. she needs to start thinking straight and try making some good decisions for once
He is tooooooooooo old for her.....
miley was my role model and i was a very big fan of her..............but after the stuff she did i am not her BIG fan anymore but still, its her life,let her do whatever she wants to until and unless she is happy and nothing bad happens to her.........
In this page i found out who was Miley Cyrus dating then i went to youtube.com and searched Miley Cyrus and Thomas Sturges and i saw a pic of Miley and Thomas when they were young
omg miley what a slut,i mean i cant believe you your sucha a poser i started lovin ur t.v shows wow you are really good a t acting.I know your just acting like a tenager but do u really want little kids like my cousin to know wht you really are a complet whoreee. well you just lost a fan and thats me .
**stop being a POSERRR****
i youstu think up to her even if i am a boy now i think shes a tart im no longer a fan i dont think much and ima annoyed and ashamed i youstu think nice things of her now i think shes just a slag all the way and the photas are saying aa lot for now at least
I loved miley but she really disapointed me I am already around enough bad infulues in my life and I thought she was a good one but not anymore. I am sad and disappointed........
oh well who needs her
They are so cute together. They are just teenagers i'm sure that if you have a boyfriend you would do that huh leave them alone.
bi the way I LUV U MILEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We live in a time of information abundance, which far too many of us see as information overload. With the sum total of human knowledge, past and present, at our fingertips, we're faced with a crisis of attention: which ideas should we engage with, and why? Big Think is an evolving roadmap to the best thinking on the planet — the ideas that can help you think flexibly and act decisively in a multivariate world.
A word about Big Ideas and Themes — The architecture of Big Think
Big ideas are lenses for envisioning the future. Every article and video on bigthink.com and on our learning platforms is based on an emerging "big idea" that is significant, widely relevant, and actionable.

Lexington, Ky. - The Savannah Sand Gnats defeated Lexington Sunday afternoon 11-6, taking three of four from the Legends. Starter Chris Flexen enjoyed his best start of the season while Savannah hitters feasted on the extra-base hit, smacking three doubles, a triple, and three home runs.
In the second inning, RF Victor Cruzado hit his fourth home run of the season to get the Gnats on the board before LF Stefan Sabol doubled and then scored on a C Jeff Glenn sac-fly. Glenn doubled home another run in the fourth to put Savannah up 3-1.
Lexington starter Luis Rico struck out a season-high eight batters, but was lifted for Crawford Simmons to start the sixth. Sabol then hit his sixth home run of the year- a two-out solo shot. Simmons also allowed another three Gnats hitters to score in the seventh.
The Gnats added four insurance runs in ninth off of reliever Andrew Edwards, including 3B Jorge Rivero's second home run of the season. Rivero had struggled through a 1-for-16 slump, but the La Habana, Cuba, native broke out Sunday, finishing the afternoon 4-for-5 with two runs scored.
For the second time in his eight starts, Gnats pitcher Chris Flexen was able to get through six innings, working around three walks and just four hits. The righthander kept the ball down most of the afternoon, generating nine ground-ball outs.
His only earned runs came on a CF Alfredo Escalera-Maldonado home run in the third and a base-loaded sac-fly by C Chad Johnson in the fifth.
Dario Alvarez earned the three-inning save for the Gnats, allowing four earned runs and six hits. Before Sunday, Alvarez had surrendered just one earned run in his first 27 innings. The lefty also gave up his first home runs Sunday, both to SS Ramon Torres.
Savannah will head to Augusta, Ga., to start a three game set with the GreenJackets Monday. Savannah will send RHP Kevin McGowan (4-2, 2.93 ERA) to the bump. First pitch at Lake Olmstead Stadium is set for 7:00 p.m. Follow all of the action live on News/Talk 630, sandgnats.com and the MiLB First Pitch App.

November 27, 2014
(CBS)-- The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) backed a resolution on Saturday in support of marriage equality.
"We have and will oppose efforts to codify discrimination into law," Roslyn M. Brock, chair of the NAACP board of directors said in a statement.
The resolution passed by the organization's board of directors says "the NAACP has opposed and will continue to oppose any national, state, local policy or legislative initiative that seeks to codify discrimination or hatred into the law or to remove the Constitutional rights of LGBT citizens."
NAACP President Benjamin Jealous said, "Civil marriage is a civil right and a matter of civil law." He cited the equal protection provision in the 14th Amendment, which is one of three post-Civil War amendments securing African American freedom and rights.
The NAACP's action comes less than two weeks after President Obama came out in support of same-sex marriage, but saying it is an issue best left to the states.
LGBT groups praised the NAACP's decision.
GLAAD President Herndon Graddick said, "Today's announcement represents their continued stance against the discrimination that LGBT families face. We applaud President Ben Jealous and the NAACP Board of Directors for their leadership on this issue."

I have never eaten at _______ and I never will!
- Jpan99 Aug 20, 2014 03:09 PM
Ya, I never say never. When your transmission fails in a small town on a Sunday.... when your connecting plane doesn't show... when a snowstorm descends as you're leaving the South Rim of the Grand Canyon... when you arrive later than you thought and everything tasty is already closed... BTDT all of these. :)
I would never say never. I like a lot of different foods. And yes, I eat at Olive Garden occasionally.
Never say never here too.
Olive Garden does soup and salad with bread sticks. How bad could that be?
re: monavano
Been there, done that when on the road for business in smallish towns. You can do a lot worse. Unfortunately, I have. Not every independently owned local restaurant is a gem. For those of us of a certain age, we remember the old ads for the Holiday Inn chain with the tag line of "no surprises." Olive Garden may be the culinary equivalent -- not going to wow you but it's tolerable.
re: monavano
I ate at Olive Garden a few times in the late 1980s-90s but I haven't been back since 1995 or so.
Ive never eaten at Chick-Fil-A
re: Kelli2006
I wish we have more CFA's around. Love the chx sandwich.
re: monavano
and their sauce! plus, great peach shake in summer -- and hot waffle fries.
re: Kelli2006
Chick-Fil-A by a mile. It's hard to give them money when they have loudly and publicly fought for me not to have basic human rights.
re: TimTamGirl
"Basic Human Rights"?
I'm familiar with their anti-gay marriage stance, but is there more than that? (Not saying I agree with it, just curious, that seems like a civil right rather than human)
re: jrvedivici
The line between civil rights and human rights gets blurry when it comes to marriage, not because of marriage itself but because of the rights and permissions that go along with it - for example, health (spousal insurance benefits; next-of-kin rights when it comes to making health decisions or even just being able to see your spouse in hospital - the time it takes to prove health care proxy status to an unwilling staffer can be the difference between seeing your loved one alive and not); parenting (having access and decision-making rights to a child you didn't physically produce); and financial and property rights (inheritance, access to financial benefits, etc.). I would say that these are pretty fundamental human rights. YMMV.
re: TimTamGirl
Yeah I hear ya, I just didn't know if there was something I had missed. I'm not sure I would use the term "human rights" but I can see and respect why you did.
re: jrvedivici
I was thinking that too jrvediv. My friend John will only eat at chik fil a if I am paying. It doesn't happen often but damn their slaw is good. Givemecrumbs he he. At least that thread didn't get locked. Oh wait.
re: monavano
re: monavano
"soup and salad with bread sticks. How bad could that be?"
Been there. Done that. Even tried them a second time thinking the first time was a fluke.
re: monavano
Not too bad if you like to eat shitty food.
re: EatFoodGetMoney
re: alkapal
I went there with my Italian aunt with the Italian accent and the waitress in this fake italian restaurant did't understand when she pronounced fettucine correctly. And it was awful. Everything was. First and last time.
re: wincountrygirl
did she pronounce it as giada does? LOL.
re: alkapal
Ha! Spagheetti will never not be an eye roller. What's funny is when she sometimes forgets to lay on the silly accent and pronounces the words normally.
re: ChefJune
I ate at Red Lobster once. Never again. And I can easily say never. I will never eat Olive Garden even if stranded. I would rather eat candy from a vending machine.
re: Jpan99
So I have a question for you. What will you do if the candy machine says "out of order" and the guy at the front desk won't give in to your demands for the next day crummy bagels? Then there is an Olive Garden next door with snow falling - the "open" light is on and the cozy lights look inviting. Servers are there. Are you going to starve yourself out of principle for the night or what?
re: miss_belle
Honestly, I would never be in the scenario you are describing. I don't get stranded in some remote place where there is absolutely no food to eat except an Olive Garden restaurant. I don't think such a place exists. Have you ever seen an OG next to nothing else? I guess if we are in this fantasy world then maybe I'm being chased by flesh eating zombies and I'm hiding in the OG hoping they won't want to go in there either.
re: Jpan99
Since you mentioned a candy machine and nothing else I took it to mean there nothing else available. You Should have mentioned this to the concierge service and 24 hour room service at your hotel.
re: Jpan99
How silly. Never say never. ever.
trust me, Olive Garden is 100 times better than a vending machine.
re: Jpan99
really? have you travelled much in the U.S.? such places do exist, and if you're staying at a hotel without room service- this could very well be your situation.
re: miss_belle
I used to shamelessly crave that hot mashed xxx-berry thing they called a crostata, and the salad was endlessly decent, but everything I ever had in between was either gluey or tough or both.
re: mrsfury
Smoothie King isn't really health food. :)
To fill in the blank: Hooters. Have never been a fan of 'chicken wing'-type places. They are prone to using artificial breast meat, or so I've been told. But also, something about the food mixed with short shorts turns my stomach. But to each their own!
re: AniseSpice
Artificial breast meat in a wing? How does that work?
re: fldhkybnva
I think they were talking about the waitresses, not the wings.
re: SteveRB
That occurred to me before I clicked "post" but I thought only I would have stopped to that level :) glad we are all on the same page.
re: AniseSpice
I would never go to Hooters of my own violation - but I was dragged there by relatives (actually, they said 'you like wings, right? (of course we do) and lo and behold when we got there the 'wing place' was Hooters. Ugh... The wings are just wings, bone and all, but I couldn't wait to get out of there.
Been to the Golden Corral once (dragged there by a church group who said it was 'cheap and good and everyone could find something to eat') - it was abysmal. I'd rather starve than go back... Never ever been to Olive Garden, Applebees or Red Lobster and I don't see myself ever going unless it's with a similar 'sorry, you can go eat or stay home alone' group.
re: Kajikit
"I would never go to Hooters of my own violation...."
What would Dr. Freud say, I wonder....?
re: AniseSpice
Hooters actually has some very good wings. I have seen a birthday party of 3 generations go to a Hooters for the food. The woman did not mind and had a great time.
The hooters are usually overrated. And short shorts are seen daily at the mall, no big deal.
Insecure women don't like going, funny thing is that grandma doesn't seem to mind. Hmmm.
re: genoO
Right. Women who don't like to stare at tits all through dinner are insecure. Gotcha.
re: linguafood
Why why why do men spout off this idiotic statement? Must...not...engage...
re: linguafood
Obviously you have never been there. They wear T shirts, you can't and don't see tits. Geeze, to judge something you have never encountered is not Chow worthy. Really good wings and a family establishment.
may be a place that serves buffalo wings might work, I hear the servers are as big as buffalos.
re: linguafood
I haven't been in a Hooters in 20+ years, but I do think they have toned it down a bit trying to draw in a larger audience.
Call me old fashion, but if I'm going to objectify a woman I'll just go to a strip club. Not use the ruse of "good wings" as an excuse.
re: AniseSpice
Bobcat Goldthwait on NPR's "Wait Wait" answering a question about Hooters:
" Like the whole idea of Hooters is like, it's just - I'm a mono-tasker. I mean I certainly like women and I liked fried food but not at the same time.....Yeah. It's like, look, I'm 50. The food is going to win every time now."
re: AniseSpice
Can't say never, because there are work situations where I have no choice.
I let my group pick the spot for BD lunches, and if they want Olive Garden, Black Angus or some other place I wouldn't normally go to, it's just one meal.
In a normal situation - I have all sorts of answers for this - but when traveling....stuff happens.
I would love to be able to say that when traveling overseas, I would never eat at an American fast food chain. But after enduring a dreadful case of food poisoning, there really was no more reassuring sight than a McDonald's.
re: cresyd
Amen to that! A filet o' fish sandwich saved me from starving once!
re: BubblyOne
I had a friend have this moment in Egypt and her savior was KFC, but in a bizarre way I now associate a completely plain McDonald's hamburger (and Gatorade) with a feeling of recovery and renewed health.
re: cresyd
Also, it was the case ten years ago when I last had them, that in France at least, the McNuggets texturally resembled and tasted like actual bites of chicken. So not fair.
re: cresyd
Us too! It was in Bolivia. They had clean bathrooms and a ball pit for the kids to play in while the hubs and I took turns running to those bathrooms. And the kids (who hadn't eaten the same thing that made us sick at a little local restaurant) were very happy to have a meal there.
re: cresyd
I found great comfort in using the standard American air blower hand dryer at that MacDonalds. It's funny what makes us feel just a little bit better when we're that sick.
re: cresyd
It's the little things that make you feel a little less far from home...
re: AmyH
I can't tell you how many times, while far away from home, that gigantic golden-arched sign has stood for "Miracle" in my mind when I needed to find a decent restroom in a hurry. Rescued me in Spain not too long ago!
re: ricepad
The food they serve is as "real" Chinese as any Chinese-American restaurant -- maybe more so.
If you mean authentic regional Chinese food, that's very different than Chinese-American.
re: Boston_Otter
I don't go to the typical run of the mill Chinese American joints, either. Most of the Chinese places I go are the kinds of places where you order in Chinese to get stuff that may or may not be on the menu. The names of most of the Chinese places I avoid would be meaningless to you because, other than PFC's and Panda Express, they're all local mom-and-pop places that are patronized mostly by gweilo who are eating chow fan at dinner and are excited to be able to take home a pair of souvenir chopsticks.
re: ricepad
"gweilo" - literally, "foreign devil". Had not heard that term before. Always love to learn new words!
re: AniseSpice
FYI, it's a pejorative.
re: ricepad
Believe me, I would like to go to those kind of places as well.
Unfortunately, I don't speak Chinese and have had uniformly bad experiences unless I'm with someone who is Chinese.
re: BubblyOne
Here's a tip that may work in some places. Go in toward the end of their lunch rush. Look at what the staff is eating for lunch - in a lot of small restaurants, the staff take over a table in the dining room for their own meal. Tell your server you want what they're having. Be polite but insist on at least a taste. When/if they serve it to you, go nuts about how much you love it. Ask them what it's called and if it's on the regular menu. The next time you go there, order the same thing. They'll remember you and be more likely to think you'll appreciate the real deal after your last visit. Once you've established your bona fides, you can branch out and ask them for the stuff on the Chinese-only handwritten specials on the wall.
re: ricepad
i wonder if chinese restaurants are the only places one needs to establish bona fides? LOL.
like tsa's "trusted traveler" program, you are pre-cleared as a "trusted eater"?
re: ricepad
Gweilo...one of my grandmother's favorite words!
re: jbsiegel
re: jbsiegel
Nah, don't do Joe's Crab Shack. I am normally not that picky about chain restaurant meals, but Joe's is a waste of time and money.
Cracker Barrel. One night we pulled into Williamsburg late and our motel was smack dab between Hooters and Cracker Barrel. Worse and worse. We picked Hooters and actually enjoyed the fried pickles.
I never say never because like mentioned, sometimes you find yourself with very little options or at the whim of someone else's desires. I know whenever SO's dad comes to town (Denver metro), the only place he wants to eat is Olive Garden. They live in a small town in Wyoming, so Olive Garden is a big treat for them. It's not my favorite but it's not the worst thing ever either. And, it's about seeing and visiting with them, not the food.
I could / would never write any place off without at least trying it once. Change this topic to "I've eaten at _________ and will NEVER return" and I can give you a list a mile long.
I'll even thank Chow for pointing me towards many small hole in the wall type places I would have NEVER tried on my own. After reading or hearing enough about them I've tried several and am very happy I did.
re: jrvedivici
Famous Dave's and Lone Star would be my two in the never to return category!
re: jbsiegel
re: Clams047
Am I really wrong for saying McDonald's here? Not sure I am looking forward to returning, but it certainly has that nostalgia value!
Cold Stone Creamery - a definite (although some will certainly disagree)
Crumbs - if they pull out of bankruptcy, I'm there!
TGIF - That nostalgia thing again!
re: Clams047
That'd be a great thread.
re: Boston_Otter
Wow. You think not wanting to eat at "one" specific restaurant constitutes a picky eater? You must hate a LOT of people.
-Chick fil A
-Long John Silver's
...just went to Chipotle for the first time, a couple weeks ago, and I was not impressed!
Yet another vote for "never say never".
I have begged for change in the parking lot of a Dairy Queen late at night. I ~needed~ those fries and some ice cream.
I am not proud of that.
Endurance racing can do strange things to a stomach...
re: pedalfaster
On the never say never vain - during the blackout caused by hurricane Sandy I would have eaten anywhere with lights.
Cap'n Blowchunks Deep Discount Seafood Warehouse Outlet.
Never been, never will.
re: Tripeler
Elitist bastard.
re: Tripeler
re: ricepad
Sorry, but Cap'n Blowchunks is straight out of my imagination. But feel free to design the t-shirt and hat. (And sickness bag so you can "blow chunks" as well.)
One more vote for never-say-never. There are work lunches, dinners with family who choose the place, and travel. Sure there are some people who, after being stuck in an airport for seven hours, would make do a granola bar or bag of pretzels, but I'm going to pack in fried cheese and beer from any place selling it. Plus you never know - you may just find a new guilty pleasure. Do I like OG? Nope, but if my great-aunt wants to treat because she knows I like pasta, then I'm gonna choke it down with a smile.
re: NonnieMuss
re: NonnieMuss
Have never eaten at McDonald's, even before I became a vegetarian. Am now 65 years old and consider it a point of pride.
Why would anyone feel the need to go to Olive Garden, even when they live in a place with many authentic Italian restaurants run by small families (or maybe even run by large families)? Most people I've met like Olive Garden for the bottomless salad bowl and endless supply of breadsticks, or because they want to try some feature they've seen on a commercial. I've only been 2 times over the last 25 years (once when The Olive Garden first arrived in Canada, and once in Sonoma County, of all places) but restaurant food can get a lot worse than Olive Garden.
re: prima
I live in a large city (guess which one!) with a ton of family-owned Italian restaurants. I've had horrible food, crappy service, and shocking prices at several of those 'authentic' places that I had to wait in a line of tourists to get into. Authentic is by no means a guarantee of quality.
That said, I'm also baffled by Olive Garden. It's mediocre, but it's also surprisingly expensive for being a chain. I've had some lousy experiences there and some just-okay ones, but given the choice, there's such better options, even for chain Italian food, that Olive Garden is a weird outlier.
re: Boston_Otter
Philly? San Francisco? Beijing?
I give up....
re: ricepad
I'm thinking Bugtussle.
re: Boston_Otter
i live in boston proper (within practically walking distance of one). my 5 y/o son loves the OG (as he calls it). I go there more frequently than i care to admit. and if i stick to the soup and salad it is cheaper than panera (i know, i know -- he also loves the mac and cheese there). i have no excuses. i could refuse to take him to these places. t's in a strip mall with a target and an old navy, home depot etc... in my defense we've never been to the applebee's (which he calls the apple store).
he does enjoy more chowish fare and never orders off the childrens menu when we eat out. he kills it at a japanese restaurant, too. do i need to turn in my chow card? in his lunch today is homemade soup with pasta and beans and homemade applesauce. i feel like i need to justify my existence now. i
*hangs head in shame*
re: eLizard
See, that's a 100% perfect reason to go to OG. The soup and salad are both very decent and kids love the place. As you say, it's cheaper than Panera if you order that way.
The people I don't understand are those who want to have a "special family meal" and choose OG, or people who tell all their friends that they chose OG for their birthday and they should all come for a big fancy meal. Their full pasta meals are more expensive and lower quality than their competition -- both chains and mom and pops, a lot of the time. And the service, especially for big groups, can be just horrendous.
I don't eat at places that advertise on tv. Unless we are talking about a hunger emergency. Then my expectations are lowered, except for the discomfort I know will be coming later.

The influential midfielder moved to England as a 12-year-old before being spotted by Millwall scouts playing Sunday league football and he soon progressed through the ranks.
He was handed his league debut in 2006 and has since become a regular in the first team.

Fuseini, who has just returned to full fitness following injury, could be handed a call-up to the forthcoming African Cup of Nations in Angola.

I Bought this megaphone just as a toy because it was so cheap. I reasearched all meegaphones and no one beat this price. Its very loud. Has an alarm and it plays songs. also has an ajustable strap so you can put it on your wrist or around your neck. The handle also folds up so it is very portable. Highly Reccomend!
It is a good speech amplifier for use as a "Loudhailer". My complaints are minor: the "siren" and "music" buttons are reversed, and whatever the music is, there's no selection, and I don't even know what the tune is.
Needed some type of megaphone to amplify voice for emergency preparations and notifying staff and students in hallways as we do not have an intercom
Started as a gag gift, but this really works great.
This product is ideal for basketball practice. It provides clear speech and has loud siren.
Great find. I love this megaphone. I use it for work to get the attention of staff, and at home to get the attention of my 20 year old son. Haha.
If you need a little bull horn, this is a good one. It takes 4 big batteries and works fine.
The range and quality of sound was not what I had expected. But it was super cheap. You get what you pay for.
Works well only if you are directly in front of the crowd you need to speak with. People behind you or on the sides of you will have a hard time hearing what you are saying.
This megaphone was lightweight and loud enough. Love it! Ordering more.

Schools win technology makeovers
Meru Networks has landed wireless deals with more than 70 educational institutions in recent months, including a deployment in Philadelphia's School of the Future project.
The company, which provides wireless local-area network infrastructure solutions, has delivered its technology to 42 universities and colleges and 28 K-12 school districts, according to Meru. The schools use WLANs for Internet access, educational applications and instructional tools.
Recently announced deployments include the School of the Future project, a partnership between Philadelphia's school district and Microsoft; Cedarville University in Ohio; Hilton Central School District in New York; Mona Shores Public School District in Michigan; and Rush-Henrietta Central School District in New York.
Ihab Abu-Hakima, Meru's president and chief executive officer, said deployments in the past 12 months span about 500 schools and 1 million students. The school installations represent a second wave of wireless adoption, he added.
"What we have noticed in the last year is a steadily increasing number of educational institutions that have made a decision…to deploy wireless so it is almost a pervasive utility," Abu-Hakima said.
He said that is a significant change compared with first-generation deployments in which coverage was limited to particular buildings.
Abu-Hakima cited "an intensive focus on re-engineering the educational process" as one driver behind the expanded wireless push. "As part of this re-engineering, there is an expectation that mobility will be central to being able to implement these new processes."

Watch now! "Sisterhood of Hip Hop" sneak peek before tonight's premiere
Tonight on Oxygen, five female rappers will be the focus of a new series called Sisterhood of Hip Hop. Among them is out emcee Siya, who is working on her career while balancing a relationship with her girlfriend, Renaye. The other rappers include Brianna Perry, Diamond, Neymiah Supreme and Bia.
You can see a little bit of what's to come below in the casting preview and tune in tonight at 9/8 pm C.
Drama ahead! But it seems Siya is trying to keep the focus on the music. She recently released a new video for her song "One Hunnid." I love how she keeps it one hunnid at all times. Out, proud and doing the most.
All of the girls seem pretty thrilled about the premiere. Follow them on Twitter if you plan on keeping up with the show and our recaps.
Happy Premiere Day!! #SisterHoodOfHipHop @DiamondAtl @BRiANNAtheYRB @SIYA @NyemiahSupreme @BiaBrokeMyHeart pic.twitter.com/Jq05mLNHim

This is an attractive circa 1930s vintage carved rose brooch made from natural bone or ivory. I can't detect enough grain pattern to tell whether it is ivory or bone. The brooch is almond shaped with the rose carved in the center and pierced carved on either side. The back has a simple base metal pin back with a C clasp.
This brooch measures 1.125" x 2.5".
Condition is good.
Give your outfit some vintage appeal with this attractive old brooch.

About Mark Lavin
I am a graduate of Appalachian State University and was fortunate enough to secure a career in the Boone/Blowing Rock area after graduation. Within time, I became a small land developer/realtor and obtained my General Contractors license. Although I still actively work in the Boone and Blowing Rock area, my job has me in other areas quite often. I purchased this cottage so that I would have a place to spend time with friends and family. However, I am not spending as much time in the area as I once did. Because of this, I have chosen to rent my home when I am not using it.
Mark Lavin purchased this cottage in 2007
Why Mark Lavin chose Boone
The location of the property was the key reason why I chose it. You can be in downtown Blowing Rock in 13 minutes, Downtown Boone in 12 minutes, and in downtown Banner Elk in 20 minutes. There are several hiking trails within walking distance or a very short drive. Only 4 miles from the nearest entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway.
