Corky's Auto Repair

Category: Auto Repair

7/22/2011

The AAA dude did his test on my battery, starter and alternator. Apparently it was all good except my alternator wasn't charging.
Asked my BIL if he knew of any reputable mechanics.
Corky's was on the shortlist.

They're honest. Tested my alternator twice and couldn't find anything wrong with it! Just when I was going to have it replaced based on the AAA dude's recommendation.

Hourly rate for labor is $75 - super reasonable.

Typical Panera. Where I come to write. Bring headphones. Lots of knitting circles and old fogies clubs congregate here, too.

The Organic Cafe

Categories: Juice Bars & Smoothies, Sandwiches, Desserts

7/22/2011

Since I'm a recent Bay Area transplant, of course one of my first orders of business is to seek out the "familiar in the unfamiliar." Which for me is a healthy, reasonably priced, preferably organic place to grab some food when I don't have time or energy to cook.

This small cafe is in the back of a tiny women's gym. Great sandwiches, panini, smoothies, etc. I generally hate eating out when I know I can make healthier, cheaper food at home, but this is one of the only places I like to go to in the Antelope Valley.

Ben's Corner

Heirloom tomatoes and other fresh, local veggies. Not sure what's organic or if they're organic, but I'm happy to patronize a place that brings the freshness.

Thank God for this place. Great gelato, great espresso. Instant love. I'm from the Bay Area so moving to the desert had me despairing of places like this. Free wifi. Affogatto...

One of the only sushi places I trust for decent sushi in Lancaster/Palmdale. Good go-to place, prices are fair, but not cheap.

A cross between Shakey's and Chuck E Cheese's. Big portions. Arcade has stuff that my 3.5 year old son can play.

The Whole Wheatery

Categories: Restaurants, Health Markets

4/1/2011

There's no Whole Foods in Lancaster or Palmdale. Trader Joe's can only do so much. So there's Whole Wheatery, a natural foods/healthy stuff grocery that jacks its prices accordingly. We're in the desert people. Organic ain't easy. They got what natural foods/gluten-free/veg people need, but tack on at least +$2 to a "normal" price.
