Tuk Tuk Thai is always satisfying when you are craving a good Thai meal. They really deliver on spice as Thai food should and everything always tastes fresh. Not to mention if you ever get it to go, their packaging is so cute!

YUM! Every time I have eaten here I have left feeling completely satisfied. They have their own twists outside of traditional Mexican menus which makes for a more adventurous type of meal. Don't miss their flautas or the tacos de Cazuela.

If you don't already know it, you must go. Gunther's Ice cream has been around since 1940 and they stay true to the "right" way of making a good ice cream. They use a higher percentage of butterfat cream to produce the most rich and creamy ice cream....
