Smiley Cup -B+ (July Review)
Today Heidi and I ventured to Smiley Cup for lunch. I've driven by this 'little box in a parking lot' numerous times and was always curious how it was. So I finally got to try it out. They mostly serve beverages, but they have three sandwiches to choose from. They also sell organic meat?! I know.. kind of odd. Anyhow I tried the tuna salad sandwich and we split a mango smoothie. The guy working.. Mr. Smiley himself.. was very pleasant. He gets an A. The sandwich I probably could whip up pretty easily at home.. but it was still delicious. It was missing a side of some sort though? Whether it be chips.. fruit.. a cookie.. a pickle... anything would do really. Otherwise it seems like you're paying a lot for a sandwich. So that gets a B. Now the mango smoothie... Oh so amazing! I'd definitely go back for one of those! All in all it was a nice little lunch. I'd definitely support Mr. Smiley again :)

Zanz - B
Once again I neglected to post my review in a timely matter. Buuuttt I still remember how the food was. I'm sure many of you have driven by Zanz and wondered how it's still in business. I know I have.. for years. Trust me, I was nervous about going there. The inside is about as awesome as the outside of the building. So I'm sure you can envision the greatness. I really just didn't want to touch anything. And I could have gone without being able to see the kitchen behind the front counter. Just minor details though. The cashier was kind of hilarious. Sadly.. if there was a Zanz employee stereotype I felt as though she fit right in. Heidi and I decided it'd be best to get our food 'to go'. We wanted to give them a fair chance and thought it best to try the food in a clean environment. I ordered a taco and tots. Or did I order two tacos? I think I got a beef and a chicken one. Those don't really stand out to me.. they were okay. What was seriously amazing though was the tots! Less grease than taco john's.. so they were healthy basically. And they were just awesome. I would definitely go back and get those. And then I also tried some of Heidi's cheese chillito.. which is the hype at Zanz if you didn't know. It looks completely disgusting! But it's actually quite delicious. So don't judge this one on its outer beauty. True beauty lies within. I give this place a solid B. Food was good. Actual building needs some work.. they should think about that.. maybe a little remodel. :)
