The place is a great development place for your kid. My son has greatly boost his confidence by taking part of little gym program. He is so active in communicating with us and more attentive while playing with us. I only wish that we enroll him earlier.

Overall the place is very neatly organized, and have a very friendly staff. The staff knows how to speak with your kid and make them involve with the program.

It's a nice place to get an ice cream. Great service, but not too many place to sit down. They have tons of flavors, but nothing special.

Finally a snack place around the movie theatre. Will try their boneless strips soon. The place looks pretty clean from outside and well maintained.

Sal's Body Shop - CLOSED

I had nothing but good experience to say of Sal's Body Shop. They're willing to go above and beyond to help us to get the car rental and making the repair to be as painless as possible.  The quality of the repair of rear bumper is superb and they added details to my car (I even didn't ask for it).

I had a bad experience with other body shop in the past, but Sal's definitely has proved me wrong. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sal's service to anyone that I know.

Found them through Yelp and have to agree with other reviewers.
They are the best company that give you a very high quality of service and honest with their service. Their rate is affordable.
Unlike other company who tries to up sell you their service, Percy just came and solve the problem right away. It definitely a plus compared to any other company that I hired previously. Would not hesitate to recommend their service.

Bijou Restaurant & Bar  

Categories: French, American (New), Lounges

4 star rating
 Update - 10/15/2008  
Finally got a chance to visit Bijou during lunch time and the place doesn't disappoints me at all. The inside was nicely decorated to create a calm yet hip atmosphere.

I ordered Croque Madame for my lunch and while was waiting has a chance to speak with the owner. Pretty laid back and very friendly guy; He shared his vision of his restaurant during our conversation.

The sandwich is huge and the price is very reasonable. I 'm a big eater and I barely finish the sandwich with the fries. I will definitely come back again to try other foods; but they won their place in my favorite place to visit on the weekend.

    Finally, a very well designed and nicely decorated restaurant in downtown Hayward. The interior picture looks very promising.

    They served a mojito (virgin) during Hayward street party in the ice glass and provide us some sample menu of what they have to offer. The price is affordable and the menu offering seems very interesting.

    The real test will begin on September 26th, where the actual service and food will be served. Looking forward for their public opening on Sept 26th.

Swiss Delices

Finally a great bakery for pastry and cake in downtown Hayward. The place just recently changed the ownership and definitely adds better flavor than the old cake there.

Definitely try out their St Honore, it's just a perfect blend of cream with a touch of caramel in between the nicely baked pastry shell. It's so hard to find St Honore cake here in Bay Area, let alone a good one. However this one win my vote for sure.

Their tiramisu is quite good, but miss a kick if you're fan of heavily rum tiramisu. They also have a very good pecan square, similar to sticky bun and using a very flaky yet crispy pastry as the bottom layer.

The owner gave us a sample of salmon pastry as a snack bite. It's really good and we will place an order for our son birthday party next month. Overall, it's really nice to see a good bakery with some quality offering in Hayward after a while. I'm glad that finally find a new place for afternoon snack munchies now.

Kopitiam - CLOSED 

Categories: Singaporean, Asian Fusion

4 star rating
 9/26/2008  
The place is a bit hidden if you're expecting a bigger restaurant. From outside, it looks like cafe. However it's how kopi tiam store looks back in Singapore. Small and compact.

We ordered few foods such as their signature dish of Chicken Rice, Roti John, Sambal Egg Plant, Fish Curry, Silken Cloud closed with the Sagu Gula Melaka as our dessert.

The chicken rice is quite good, but I ate better one as the ginger after taste in their dish is a bit too strong. However the rest of the foods are very tasty.  Their tofu, silken cloud brings a new flavor of how you eat tofu with crunchy deep fried taro strings and sweet sauce. The fish curry is similar to Roti Prata dipping sauce, but the combination with fish fillet, potato and some veggies definitely add some flavor to it.

If you like spicy food and willing to try belacan (shrimp paste), then you should try their sambal egg plant. It deserved five stars on its own as the flavor is quite a balance and yet you don't feel the egg plant become soggy because of it.

Their Roti John brings an interesting taste with minced meat and deep fried egg. It will be a good snacking companion for your kopi tiam (Coffee with condensed milk). Caution that it takes a bit longer to prepare.

Our selection of dessert, sagu gula melaka doesn't disappoint us at all. The sago is cooked together as a jelly and soaked with palm sugar syrup and coconut milk topped with cut strawberry.

Their service is very friendly and courteous however with one chef to do everything; it does take longer to prepare the food. I will come back to try different dish for sure and would not hold my recommendation for others of this place.

Dr. Scott Canada is the best chiropractor there is in term of helping you with adjustment after accident. He offer very personalize service and treat you with a lot of respect and converse you with some humor. He makes you feel that your going through a casual conversation and forget that you're in the chiropractor getting some stiff adjustment (ouch!).

Four Season's Hot Pot And Dumpling  

Category: Chinese

3 star rating
 9/19/2008  
I was so thrilled to find a dumpling shop in Provo, UT so I rushed out to try it right away. Well, they don't have much to offer besides, buffet hot pot, dumpling and few variation of noodles.

The good thing of the dumpling is they are freshly hand made. It will take some time to get it cooked, so don't order them if you're starving.

Their dumpling is quite good and the skin in good enough to hold the juice inside and doesn't break when you pick it up from the steamer.

Their so called Za Jiang Mien (Black Bean Noodle) is nicely cooked, and too salty for my taste. The interesting thing is there's no blackbean in the sauce at all. In fact, it looks and taste more of Cold Noodle than regular Za Jiang noodle. I might come back again, but they are definitely in lower priority to come back.
