get in my closet! Love this store. If you've never been to the Bishop Arts you must. Just Add Jeans is super cute with an ever rotating inventory of awesomeness. The owner could double as a fashion consultant. Every time I go into JAJ they have something new and fun that finds it's way into my closet. Great prices. Great selection. And fun people. Nice perk!

what a great turn out! I am among the group who was skeptical of having an event at a dentist's office, but man is PURE a pretty place! I discovered I am a fan of empanadas.. who knew?! AND things to be filed under "why didn't I think of that" - whip cream + alcohol. We are adding this yumminess to our holiday cooking adventures this week.

I've been to a few different yogurt places in the area and I'd say Yogurt Story is my fav. The staff members are all very friendly, the place is clean and always a good place to hang out. Their pricing structure at .35 an ounce is a lot less than some of the bigger yogurt places.

While I like that they have so many flavors I seem to always go back to the original tart.

I'm in love. I went to Fish City for the first time today and I'd say the Honey Chipotle Shrimp tacos are the best shrimp tacos I've ever had. I've read in some of the other reviews that they are a little heavy on the sauce with their dishes but I think the sauce is oh so yummy so I'm certainly not complaining. In addition to the tacos I also had Gumbo, which I am not an expert on but I'd definitely order it again.

Overall I was impressed with the food presentation, the friendly service and the knowledgable staff. I'm curious to try some of their signature dishes (Oyster Nachos for one) but I may be hooked on the shrimp tacos. We will see!

I might preface this review by saying although I don't like moving I've found myself in a new apartment once a year since 2004. Seriously, what is this? I've used Umovefree to make the apartment searching process (and the moving part) easier. Their database makes finding what I'm looking for easy - move as often as me and you might become picky too.

The movers are always friendly and I've never had a problem with any of my stuff being damaged (I've heard some horror stories from friends about other moving companies). I'll tell ya Umovefree not only saves your back they also are great for saving friendships. I promise you, your friends don't like helping you move!

I've been a member of the Addison Athletic Club for a few years now. The facility is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. If you are a resident of the city of Addison it's only $10 to join (after a pretty serious verification process). They just recently put in a bunch of new gym equipment. They have indoor and outdoor pools, racquetball, basketball, track and a full gym.

We went last Friday for a happy hour meetup and I must say I was impressed for $20 all you can eat sushi the rolls I got were really good. I've been to a few all-you-can eat style sushi places and they are usually dressed up California Rolls but Otaru had several options on the AYCE menu.

I also love the ambiance with the blue lighting, it was a bit loud trying to hear the people we were sitting with but the music that was playing was pretty fun so I was ok with it.

Will definitely be back.

PS: say hi to the bartender Alex when you stop in, he might be the most chatty bartender I've encountered!

We were certainly not impressed. It's over-priced and just average food. The only saving grace was that they deliver.

The drinks are pretty good but the customer service is terrible. Pretty sure the girl working didn't speak English. She was very confused by the word "banana" ... not a great idea for a smoothie place. The other worker was very distracted talking to a friend instead of working.
