Red Fish Asian Bistro, Olive Branch, MS

Red Fish is an Asian restaurant in Olive Branch on Goodman Road a little east of Davidson Road in the same parking lot as Corky's. I went there a few days ago based on suggestion from a friend and it was pretty good. It reminded me a little of Kublai Khan in Southaven but I don't know if it's owned by the same company. The menu looked similar.

I don't remember the name of what I got but it's one of the dinner combos with about 15 or 16 pieces of "chef's choice" sushi and a soup and salad. I don't remember the exact price but it was around $22 or $23 with a drink and tax which is about average for what I got.

It was really good and I will be back when I'm in the area.



New Day Overhead Doors, Southaven, MS

New Day Overhead Doors

So here's another rare "not a restaurant" post.

I found out about New Day from a friend whose brother owns it and he recommended it to me. I've been having issues with my garage door for about a year and someone came out from another company last year and as he stepped out of his truck before even looking at the door he told me I needed new door sensors for around $300. It's amazing how he could know before even looking at it! I told him I would have to let him know.

A few days ago when I contacted John at New Day he came right over (I got lucky, he was just starting his day and was nearby) and inspected the door and told me that the wiring was just loose. He replaced the wires and put on wire protectors for a service fee of $65.00 and it fixed the problem. Turns out the wiring was the only problem and I didn't need new sensors.

I'm really impressed and will use New Day again next time I need my garage door serviced.

Maria's Cantina, Southaven, MS

Maria's is a Mexican restaurant in Southaven on Airways a couple of blocks south of Goodman Road on the west side. I thought I had posted about them previously but apparently I haven't. I went there this past Saturday with a friend for lunch.

They have really good Mexican food but they have some of the best burgers in town. This time I got a jalapeno burger which I've had before. It was great and my friend said he was too. He ordered a regular burger with no special toppings.

I don't remember how much it was. We also ordered some cheese dip and I think my total was around $15 or $16. I definitely recommend it if you're in the area.
