Lulu's Cafe


I stumbled across Lulu’s Café the first week I was in San Antonio. It was eleven thirty at night and Lulu’s was the only place I could find that was open. The parking lot was packed so I thought this little café had to be good. Inside I found what I believe to be the world’s largest cinnamon roll. It was twice the size of my head and had to weigh at least 3 pounds. I was beyond shocked. The waitress told me the chicken fried steak was there specialty so I decided to try it. I wasn’t disappointed. It was one of the best chicken fried steaks I’ve ever had. It was also very massive. That was the first time that I haven’t been able to finish all the food on my plate. There was just too much to eat. After seeing ridiculously large cinnamon roll, I had to try it. Myself, and 3 other friends barely put a dent in the thing. The best part of the whole dinner was the price. For 3 days worth of food I paid about thirteen dollars. That’s something no college kid can pass up. So if you ever have a late night craving for chicken fried steak or a huge cinnamon roll, just head down Main Street to Lulu’s Café.

Pei Wei!


I’m a big fan of Chinese food. So I decided to do a review on Pei Wei. It is located just a little bit past the quarry market. It is a branch of P.F.Changs. They have smaller but similar menu. No entre is more than eight dollars. I can’t say its healthy but almost everything there is delicious. They have a good selection of noodle dishes. All of their main entrées come with your choice of chicken, beef, or tofu and either white or brown rice. I personally recommend the crab wontons for an appetizer and the chicken Thai dynamite. I cant get enough of it either. Pei Wei is usually busy so most of the time there is a good wait for your food. I have never had a bad meal there it is worth the short wait. So if you’re looking for something a little different to eat along the Asian cuisine then Pei Wei is the place to go. It is a low priced option that is bound to please. Anyone who is a fan of P.F Chang’s is a fan of Pei Wei. You can even watch your food being made if you so choose. If your looking for some good Chinese food then head over to Pei Wei!
