MJ's Latest Recommendations

Gilbert's on Main
MJ is very likely to recommend this business
This is a nice Jewish (I think - no pork) deli in old downtown Bellevue (I think). It is walk up counter service with items ranging from fantastic bagels, Lox omelets, great coffee, and various egg combinations for breakfast. The place is a loft like cafe with a full kitchen and chef. Gilbert's is a nice change from the basic breakfast and sandwich shops. Just remember this before going, it is expensive. Almost every plate combination is 15.99 and coffee is 2.99. Rent must be high for this deli's location. It is different but sometimes different will cost you a bit more. Worth a try and may be only once.
Chace's Pancake Corral
MJ is very likely to recommend this business
If you like breakfast you will love this place! It's quaint family owned and makes you feel like you are back at Mom's for a home cooked traditional American breakfast. And don't forget to order pancakes! They have all kinds.

MJ is very likely to recommend this business
Good place for breakfast meeting but go early. This is an old meeting place for Houston's bankers and lawyers before starting the day. Most of the waitresses have been working at Avalon longer than I have been alive. Avalon is truly a Houston icon.
Salento Coffee
MJ is very likely to recommend this business
This is one of my favorite coffee/wine cafes. It has such a nice European feel in Rice Village. The food is actually really good unlike most coffee/wine cafes in Houston...and of course the wine and coffee make Starbucks look like the Wal-mart of retail shopping. Parking can be tough on the facing street but it is easy to walk from the surrounding areas where parking can be found. I don't know the little lady behind the counter but she is always superbly friendly and gracious.
Wynn Las Vegas
MJ is very likely to recommend this business
Wynn (and Encore) is by far my favorite hotel on the strip in Las Vegas. Class, beauty, great food, friendly people, wonderful casinos, are just a few things that describe the Wynn. The Wynn also has a great location as they are away from the rush, in close proximity to shopping, and walking distance to the best breakfast place in Las Vegas (The Peppermill). Rooms are spacious and the decor is stunning. And let me not forget that the restaurants at the Wynn and Encore are so good that you will have no need to venture off the property for lunch or dinner. I am sure breakfast is superb but I am loyal to Peppermills as were the Rat Pack. Also, one other great aspect - no DB sitings or persons that act, look, or appear to be cast members of Jersey Shore...throw the F bomb in this place and they will gladly escort you off the property.
Thank you Steve Wynn!

Anvil Pub
MJ wonders:
What is the Anvil Russian Roulette that's all the rave??? Dare I ask!
Thomas responds:
Order a pizza and they will add extremely spicy sauce to one the slices for a minimal charge. You can add as many "bullets" as you like. A great idea when hanging out with friends or enemies alike.
1person found this usefulRobert Conrad DDS
MJ wonders:
I heard that Dr. Conrad's office is moving to a new location. Where exactly will this be and when?
Agnes responds:
Dr. Conrad is moving to I-10 and Highway 6. Moving date is August 2011. Dr. Conrad is an awesome Dentist there is no better Dentist in the Houston area! He uses the latest technology in his field and is very conscientious about his work. I highly recommend Dr. Conrad!

MJ wonders:
Hey Jeff, that is it. Cool locations on the water way in the Woodlands and I am sure it is the place to be in the Woodland's on St. Patrick's Day.
Goose's Acre
MJ wonders:
I just heard about this place and I believe it is owned by the same people that own Brian O'Neill's Irish Pub in the Village. Has anyone been there?
Discount Tire
MJ wonders:
Do they actually adhere to appointment times?
Thomas responds:
I believe it differs from each location. Of course, if you are hoping for your appointment to be on time on a Saturday or Sunday, you will be very disappointed.

Peter responds:
They may not be right on time, but you at least get to cut the line and go to the seperate line that is reserved for pick ups and appointments. So may not be perfect but it is 1000 times better than not having one.
