Really. I have no idea how much money my wife and I have spent here. We bought whole lot of kids cloth for our nephews. This place is very convenient to us, which there are many stores nearby.

The staff is always very friendly. They don't mind go through their inventor and told us there are some new items in the back. So we are very happy to shop at this place.

Morning Glory Coffee

This is a newly opened locally owned coffee shop in Gilbert. Spent 20 minutes talking to the owner before noon when there was only 3 customers.

Personal opinions:
1. The coffee isn't as strong as I expected
2. There is no Wi-Fi (They said they will add that later)
3. The fresh cookies is good but can be better
4. There is no clear sign on the street, so it's very easy to miss.
5. It's on the west side of Cooper rd, not the best place for morning coffee before driving to work.
6. Nice out door sitting area facing S. It will be very hot for summer.
7. There is enough space for business meeting. Very quiet and very clean.

If there is Wi-Fi, it will be my alternative office space.

Mesa Muffler

I was told to check this place out by two other trusted auto repair shops in Gilbert, where I will have to pay more to replace the catalytic converter and wait for 5 days to get the part.

So I did my research online. I called Mesa Muffler few times to see if they will say something different each time.

The first time I called, the price was $40 higher than the last call and I was told there is only 25K miles warranty. I asked the part they will install for my Honda Accord and find out it should be 50K miles warranty by Federal law . They double checked and admit it should be 50K miles warranty.

I finally decide to stop by today and give them a shot. I came in at 9:00AM and I was out of their in matter of 32 minutes. Two guys were working on the car while I was standing there watching.

So far the car is running great without the engine light on and no leak or noise, which should not happen anyway. Will see if anything come up in few weeks.

PS. If you pay cash, you can get extra discount.
PS. Make sure you call few times and get all your questions answered.
PS. I give them 4 stars because of their inconsistency on the phone, otherwise, I will give them 5 stars.

Bear Creek Golf Course

To be honest, this is my first time playing 18 holes golf game ever. I am a very beginner. This place is beautiful, especially under the cloudy day in early December in Arizona (See photo).

My friend book the early tee time online for Wed for only $18 per person including golf cart. We had good time playing golf there. The staff at the front door giving us the golf cart key is very nice.

I have never played at other golf course at suck price, so I am unable to compare. I will be playing tomorrow again. Hope I get even better experience this time.

Really. I can't say enough good thing about this company. It's a wonderful idea that every dog and cat lover should join. I had great experience with the owner of this company who is dedicated in loving our best friends.

I was out of country for 3 weeks. Imaging if we are the pets that don't get to see the world and stay home without the care or love. It will drive us crazy. This service will arrange the best host for your pets, so you don't have to worry about their condition.

Great services for our best friends!

I have only been this place once and I will come back again.

I just can't believe that I forgot taking the photos of the food I ordered. This place is really clean. The sandwich was good and tasty. The girl took my order is pretty.

Well. I will just give them 4 stars. The gentlemen made my sandwich need more smile to make it 5 starts. I know! I am perfectionist. Maybe he was tired or not in the mood or maybe I was just too cheap with a coupon found online.  

Anyway, he needs more smile just like they did on TV.

Hot Wok Chinese Restaurant

I know many people were pissed by the restaurant. I was one of them about two years ago until recently visited the business two doors down and realized they changed the ownership.

*** New Owner ***

This place has a new owner since September 2010. It's now named "Hot Wok Chinese Restaurant". I decided to give it a shot. I saw a familiar face. The chef is actually from my favorite dim sum place "Phoenix Palace" in Chandler.

Obviously, he starts his own business now. Good for him. So I ordered the lunch with a friend of mine. At price of $5.00, I did not expect too much from it, but I have to admit that it tasted really good. Well I hope I was not treated differently.

So I went back second time last week and today. I ordered a shrimp (surprising big - See my picture) and asked not to make it too salty. The chef did what I asked for.

I will give him 4 stars for now. The food is great for the price, but I think he can do even better since I like what he did at his previous chef job at Phoenix Palace. I don't mind to pay few dollars more for larger portion. He needs to make difference than the previous owner.

I will come back again until I tried all the dishes.

How many times did you hear Starbuck staff say "Good morning" in one visit.  

I heard 7 times here even it was afternoon. LOL! I guess they have a long day already. The coffee is no different than any other Starbucks locations, but the staff is the nicest so far.

To be honest, their foods taste really good and the waiter are nice, but the big guy at front door cashier is not very nice and had no patient to the first time visitor!

So I give them 3 stars! I can tolerate bad foods once or twice, but I can't tolerate bad customer service!
