Eating in Madison A to Z

GAMES magazine Battleships puzzles.

The mixed grill does indeed look delicious, but my eye is also drawn to the interesting booklet or sheet behind the dish. Looks a bit standardized-testish.

Lamentably, Minerva closed a while ago.

Nice to see that they're willing to change up the menu. We thought the new dishes (especially their banchan) were spectacular. Who knew small bits of potato in a soothing chicken broth could be that good?

love this place! Their noodle dishes are to die for!

Takara shut down it's State St location last year, the Whitney Way one is still open.

the best place ever. its my heaven

What? You didn’t have the Tater Tot Hotdish?!? For shame! But guess you have a reason to go back now as this is the only place I know of outside of my beloved Minnesota to get a plateful of that delicacy.

Just ate there for lunch and couldn't be happier. The curries were top-notch, and the variations on a sweet & sour were excellent. Some of the best spring rolls we've had in years. Slower, relaxed service, but will go again.

Looks like I have a new place to add to the Fish Finder. Thanks for the info, friends!

We just had our own neighborhood staple close recently as well. https://www.mercurynews.com/2017/12/30/san-jose-tofu-japantowns-gem-closes-its-doors-after-71-years/

It's sad to see these gems disappear.

I don't understand your categories. Should the second Double-A's be Single-A's?

Please get a better camera, thank you.

Eun Sol Yu was the original owner with her dad, Young Yu. Hence "Sol's."

(Giggling at this: JM couldn't bring himself to chow down on seaweed because, well, he just doesn't like it. :-))

Grammar pet peeve: "Comprise" is an active, not passive, verb. The proper statement would be, "The Hong Kong tomato sauce comprised..."

If you wanted to use the passive voice, "composed" would be the appropriate choice.

We try to make excuses to get to that side of town. We love their spicy green beans and tofu. The green beans are one of the few times that Todd gets excited about a green vegetable.

Oh man, I love the fried chicken baked rice mozzarella curry. I am seldom way the fitch out at Cahill Main, but when I am, this is where I stop for food.

I took a bunch of classes at the Fluno Center. They include dinner in your class fee. The view is spectactular. It has never been too crowded. I really like the first floor breakfast buffet. It is included in the course fee, but the general public can purchase for $12. All my classmates raved about the bacon.

Thanks! Sounds great; we wouldn't blog it (since it's not Dane Co.) but have heard good things.

You need to check out the new place in Columbus, Bistro Racian on James Street. Old school Mom and Pop Italian.
