What an AMAZING time!!!! Thanks so much to Lindsey, Yelp and AZ Air Time for hosting this event! I brought my sister and two nieces along. My niece Olivia was in HEAVEN!!!! She didn't want to leave!

I love that there is a kid section away from the rowdy areas.  The foam pit was a ton of fun but really hard to get out of, LOL! We can not wait to go back!

Woot Woot!!!

After going to the grocery store and buying what I thought was the correct battery only to find out that those small 3V batteries come in a multitude of sizes which the grocery store only carries the standard size I knew that Batteries Plus would help me out.

I walk in and am greeted promptly by the store manager. I show him what I am looking for and he produces the battery in under a minute!

I will now be able to weigh myself again, wah wah.

Thank you Battery Plus! You rule!

AJ's Mongolian BBQ

After our fav Mongolian place closed I was set on having Mongolian the night we came across AJ's.

It was decent.

It seemed a bit over priced.

The soft serve was kinda gross and the chocolate was out of order.

The all you can eat soup looked like it had been sitting there for a good 8 hours.

Will I go back? Maybe.

Was I impressed? Not really.

Did I leave full? Yes.

Lai Lai Mongolian Bbq

First off I thought I had already review Lai Lai but I guess not.
Had I reviewed it I would have given it a solid 3.

Now I want to give it a zero.

I don't know what happened but the Mongolian BBQ no longer exists. The hubs and I went in there this past Friday and it was all ripped out.

They tried to get us to stay to order off the menu, which was just Chinese food...I reallllly wanted Mongolian BBQ.

So sad. They are right down the street from us. No more Lai Lai for me.

The Habit Burger Grill

For 2 burgers, and order of frys, an order of onion rings and a large drink the bill was only $15. Pretty decent. Its a step above fast food burgers but by no means a gourmet burger. I ordered the burger with pineapple and terriyaki sauce. The pineapple had little flavor, and same with the sauce. Though it wasn't horrible.

The place is very very clean and the staff was extremely nice.

The hubs and I will venture back in here again for sure.

WOW!!!!!!

So glad I went here! My mother in law goes here. My husband was in NEED of a pedicure (When you start referring to the bottom of your souls looking like alligator assholes you know its time for a pedicure) Since I was dragging him to his very first pedicure I figured I would take one for the team and get one as well.

They did such a nice job! I liked how the pedicure chairs were in the back and closed off so you weren't on display to the rest of the shop. It is really nicely decorated in here. The staff is friendly enough, same language barriers as any where else.

We did the works and added the sugar scrub and also did the paraffin wax treatment, all in all with tip for two top of the line pedicures it was $100. Not to bad.

I will for sure be going back! They do gels here and I really want to try those out!

I went as Jessica W's +1 to this event as I never made it off the wait list, wah wah.

At any rate, this was my first time going to the Different Pointe of View and for sure wont be my last! What an amazing place and the VIEW! I felt like I wasnt in Phoenix!

The food was top notch, I had no idea I liked short ribs! Thats all I can think about now.

Met a few new Yelpers, some very odd, some cool.

Thanks to Lindsey, Yelp and a Different Pointe of View for a fabulous Tuesday night!

Glad to finally go to a PJ where all the girls are actually CLOTHED! I love me some PJ but always hate going in and having to be subjected to the waitresses in barely there clothing, the girls here are tastefully dressed.

This is for sure the most upscale looking of all the PJ's.

The food was all just as good as it is at the other locations. My only complaint is that I ordered the nachos and they gave me a HUGE portion of chips and almost no cheese or other toppings. Usually the nachos are smothered in toppings so this was disappointing.

I will go back here againl

Pretty cool concept for an accessory store, sections of the store are broken apart by color. Makes shopping soooo much easier!

Super fun to shop in. The store associates are friendly and do not pester you asking if they can help every 5 seconds, so thats a plus.

Updating my review!

Solid 5 stars!

I found out that the valet is FREE (but you gotta tip) AND there is a little seating area out back! Totally didn't know about that!

So now I can actually park my car and sit and enjoy my treats! woot woot!

    Two words. Pretzel Cone!!!

    Seriously people! Holy YUM! I was on the search for a new ice cream place and am sooo glad I found Churn! This is the cutest little shop around.

    The shop itself is kinda hard to find, there isnt much signage (Hint its just north of the Circle K. Parking is a nightmare. They do offer valet as its sister (Or maybe cousin) restaurant, Windsor, is right next door but who gets their car valeted for ice cream?? Parking is the only thing from letting this place be a five!

    The ice cream was creamy and soooo fresh tasting! They have all sorts of tempting treats, I am for sure getting one of those rice krispie treats next time!

    I hope this little shop is here to stay!
