King of Thai Noodle 2 and a couple stores down they got this crepe place where you can get the crep/cheesecake ice cream cone. Trust me on that one. Plusthey got all those crazy lil asian drinks and candies. Also in between those stores they got hella resturants that got those pork buns both ways for 50 centseach

thats the one i always eat at!

 

[seven654three]

Any healthier joints in San Jose?

 

[ezln1]

I'm not sure if this spot has been mentioned, but my girl put me onto Boos Voni (Bugs Bunny)....they have the most awesome mexican tortas I've tasted,and they are HUGE! Their priced from 6.50-8.50, and money well spent cause I'm a big eater and I can only eat half. Spot is located right on Geneva &Mission in the city, right next to the B of A and Geneva Steak House (which is also

). try their cuban torta

Sup_

Boos Voni is good but expensive for a Torta.

Peace.

 

[jcsellsf]

^^is that the resturant where they only make tortas, across from pollo supreme? if it is, that place is nasty as hell

San Tung has the greatest dry fried chicken wings!!!!!!

 

[lorenander]

Hey has anyone been to Yogurtland in Cupertino yet? I heard it opened a couple days ago. I haven't had any since I left Irvine a few months back. I triedlooking them up but apparently they have no phone number yet. Anyone know their hours, particularly today?

I had Frozo's in Santa Clara yesterday (which is the closest thing to Yogurtland for me up here), but I've been waiting for Yogurtland for awhile now.

 

[Thats My Word]

Does anybody know any all you can eat sushi buffets in either oakland or san francisco that compares to fuji's in davis????

 

[measy15]

^^^

Only one i can think of right now is Masu, but that's in San Mateo.

 

[acidicality]

not comparable...but there's a nice sushi buffet place in Berkeley. it's very small and selection isn't that much, and the but it's a prettygood deal. they have some really nice sushi though.

 

[Thats My Word]

^where at?

 

[l4ndo]
