Yaya's Frozen Yogurt, Oxford, MS

Yaya's

MAP

Yaya's is a serve yourself frozen yogurt cafe on the north side of the Square in Oxford at North Lamar Avenue.

 

I went there last weekend and we stopped in for a dessert after eating at Boure. It was really good and the staff was very friendly. They charge by the ounce based on how much you get but the prices seemed to be pretty average compared to other similar places I've been. My cup was about $7 for the yogurt and toppings I got.

I definitely enjoyed it and would recommend it if you like frozen yogurt.


 Other recent trips:

 

Boure, Oxford, MS - Seafood cakes, cheese and sausage plate, salad



 

Buffalo Wild Wings, Memphis, TN - Wings, chips and salsa/queso

I don't normally review chain restaurants but I went there a couple of weeks ago because I had a gift card and to be fair, it was pretty good. It's not my first choice for wings but it was good.


 

Viejo Vallarta, Olive Branch, MS

Viejo Vallarta is a relatively new Mexican restaurant in Olive Branch on Hacks Cross Road about two blocks north of Highway 302. I went there a few weeks ago for the first time and was really impressed. They have you usual Mexican fare and I ordered a chicken quesadilla. The prices were about the same as most places and the service was very good.

I highly recommend trying them out.


 

Other recent trips:

 

Walk-Ons, Southaven, MS - Devil's on Horseback (shrimp) and Pepper Jack Boudin

I've been to Walk-Ons 4 or 5 times and every time but once they got my order wrong. This time I ordered Alligator Bites but they brought the Boudin instead. It was good, it just wasn't what I ordered.

 

South Point Grocery, Southaven, MS - Meatball sub, and a sub similar to a club

Bardog

MAP

Bardog is a bar and grill on Monroe Avenue basically at the corner of Monroe and Center Lane in downtown Memphis. I went there last week and based on a review I saw on the internet, I order spaghetti and it was really good.

The price was pretty reasonable and the service was great. My total including a side salad, drink, and tax was about $22.00.

I will definitely be back soon!

As a side note, they do card everybody as least at night or on the weekends so take your ID.

Mitchell's Breakfast Burrito's, Memphis, TN

Mitchell's

I've reviewed Mitchell's a few times but they now have a new location in downtown Memphis on Main Street at the corner of Pontotoc Avenue in the same building as the Rum Boogie Cafe. I went there a couple of weeks ago and it was just as good as the location in West Memphis.

They have a few new items on their menu and I got the Kay's Three Alarm Burrito and a chicken quesadilla and both were great! I highly recommend trying them. They also get good reviews from a couple of other reviewers that I follow!

Ragin' Cajun, Bartlett, TN



Ragin' Cajun

MAP

Ragin' Cajun is which I think is a relatively new restaurant in Bartlett on Bartlett Road and Sycamore View Road right across from the softball and soccer fields. I went there a few days ago thinking it was a Mexican restaurant named El Idolo but I didn't realize that had closed. El Idolo moved not too far away but reopened under the name Lopez Grill (and it is great, I reviewed it previously but didn't realize it was the same owner).

I ordered Cajun chicken pasta and a cup of chicken and sausage gumbo and everything was really good. The prices were reasonable. I think my total including a drink and tax was around $30.

I will definitely go back and I recommend trying them!
