I finally completed my latest project. The one where I have to eat at every food outlet within easy walking distance of the house. Pizza Hut got good marks for price, speed and efficiency but in terms of taste they couldn't compete with Bar Pizza on Glyde. A superior pizza, for sure. Our local Thai will be getting further visits as will Subway but the nearby Chinese restaurant was too appalling to even consider a return trip. Ditto Red Rooster. Jaffles pies could not be faulted except on health grounds. I think their Happy Hour whereby you get two pies for the price of one between six and seven could prove very dangerous to even a dilettante dieter like me. We finished off with a drive-through coffee and muffin from Muzz Buzz. You'll be pleased to know that I had a long black sugar-free decaf with a Pritkin muffin. Jim had something creamy and frothy with a double choc chip muffin the size of a small house. He gave me a taste, it was to die for. Now I glance at the place longingly as I drive past every day but it didn't get our top award. That honour goes to Chez Uchino where we had a delightful Japanese meal on Jim's birthday. If the name doesn't sound very Japanese that's because it claims to be a fusion restaurant, a sort of mix of Japanese, French and Italian or some such. Whatever, it works. There is a purely Japanese restaurant close to the house but we took one look at the prices on the menu and decided it would have to wait for a special occasion... like a major lottery win.
