My first time at Mama Ricotta's and I can't wait to return. I will add the Pappardelle With Tomato basil Sauce and the added protein of Salmon (pronounce the L) to top it off.

The best thing about this dish to me was the sauce. Fresh tomatoes stewed into a savory sauce and basil to give it that extra kick. I could drink a glass of the sauce alone.

The salmon was plain and simple. Light seasoning and medium cooked. The way it should be.

The Pappardelle was cooked to an all dented bite. It allowed me to cocoon a piece of my medium cooked salmon in the center and then swirl it around in the basil sauce creating the perfect..... succulent....... bite.

Extra advice... To wash it all down, Order the red wine flight.😉

I'm hungry now. 😁

I recently ordered from Da Reggae Spot in Greensboro. Here is my 2cents.

The barbecue jerk wings were excellent, with a smoky flavor and spicy glaze. The beef patties were also delicious. The crust was perfect, and the filling was flavorful and authentic.

I found the Jamaican Conch Fritters to be a bit overcooked, with an unexpected sweetness. The Sweet taste was okay..... It was just overcooked. Most disappointingly was the Ackee and Saltfish plate. The consistency was overly mushy, the inclusion of large cherry tomatoes was unexpected, and the cabbage was undercooked. Sidenote.....the rice and plantains were enjoyable.

While I will not be ordering the Ackee and Saltfish again, I would give them a second try and order something else.

Crazy Legs sports Cafe is a new spot that just recently opened. I stopped in during their soft opening. I ordered the sweet barbecue wings and sea salt fries.

The sea salt fries came out hot, fresh and crispy. There was some yellow drizzle in the bottom of the bowl which I was told was butter.

As far as the wings go.... I felt like the wings were fried hard and hot and then tossed in refrigerator cold sauce...... Which gave the wings a lukewarm taste.

I want to do a comparison and return to this establishment once they're fully open and have had time to work out the kinks.

I had to give y'all an up close and personal shot of this delicious a$$ Bucatini Cacio E Pepe..... Aka cheese and pepper. Made with Romano cheese, black pepper , and handmade homemade pasta. I loved the thickness....and softness of the Bucatini. Fresh coarse pepper mixed with the cheese sauce made every bit worth biting. Check'em out.

Hibachi rice with chicken and shrimp and sweet& spicy sauce on the side. By itself, the chicken was good but the shrimp and rice needed some flavor. Very bland. I added the sauce all over and stirred it up real good and the meal came to life. For a hibachi spot the food preparation needs some work.

Stopped in for a quick bite at the Bradford House before heading to the airport. I ordered the Bradford House Breakfast which included two scrambled eggs, bacon, breakfast potatoes, country white toast, and a side of jam. I also added salmon for extra protein.

Let’s start with the good.
The breakfast platter definitely hit the spot. The eggs were softly scrambled, the bacon was perfectly crispy, and the potatoes were well seasoned and tender.

Now, the salmon… unfortunately, that was a letdown. I could tell it was overcooked before the first bite. If only I had some grits. 😁

They do offer fresh pastries to order, and if I’m in the area again, I’d give them a try.

Looking for a new pizza spot led me to Brooklyn Pizza Parlor, located at 7725 Colony Rd, Charlotte, NC 28226. Here’s what I ordered:

Meatza Pizza
This pizza comes with pepperoni, Italian sausage, beef, and ham on a thin crust. Overall, I needed more sauce. Without it, the pizza felt more like an oversized breadstick, and the toppings didn’t blend together the way they should have.

Buffalo Wings
I asked for them fried hard, but it seems that request was overlooked. The buffalo sauce itself had good flavor, but the wings just didn’t hit the mark—the meat wasn’t very appetizing.

I would consider giving them a second try because the menu has a lot to choose from, but one employee (who seemed like a manager) really dimmed the experience.

While I was there, the phone rang. She walked over, picked up the receiver, slammed it back down, and said, “Oops. I guess they didn’t want anything,” then laughed and walked away. Truly terrible customer service.
