Last night me and Elli died our hair, so naturally we had to do our hair and get all pretty to match our now cute hair.  Afterwards we sat in our living room (with nothing to do). quickly we knew what had to happen! another restaurant, it's our duty to our blog followers ;) however we were not sure where to go and it was 9:30 so everywhere was closing.  We ended up at the above, Casa Dona Maria Mexian Grill.  A friendly man opened the door for us and they sat us quickly.  It was just adorable inside.  While we waited we got to watch baseball! wahoo. The tv was huge so if we were baseball fans it would have been great! the men were cute though =D The salsa and chips were very good.  I got the special because I like to do that when I haven't a clue the menu. It was a mushroom chimichanga ... dunno how to spell that but it's phonetically correct. Elli's burrito was alright, she doesn't like lime and it had a lime sauce, I liked it! the beans and rice were better than Paula's! I think we liked it better. mmmm...  The waitress was also better than the one at Paula's.  The price was about the same.  We would definitely go back again. Success.

Ahi's Taste of Asia

Tonight We had a taste of Asia, at Ahi's.  It's hidden on riverside drive over by the car dealerships and hotels. We were greeted by a sweet old lady who gave us a break down of the menu.  She told me her favorite so I went with it.  It was delicious  =) cranberry plum stir fry stuff on brown rice. Elli got some Mongolian stir fry.  Her's was also good. not as good as mine.  She would argue, however she did think it had too many vegetables. Silly Elli, vegetables are the best part. The service was great, and fast! we were in and out in no time. Also we could refill our own cups... nobody taking them and refilling them int he back or darkness, who knows what goes on back there. This restaurant was pretty decent, I think we might just go back =)

Pirate Cove

Today Elli and I decided to go to Made in Brazil, turns out it did not exist =( so we went to Pirate Cove.   The atmosphere was pretty cool, but we kept hoping for the waiters to be pirates... They were not.  Our waiter was actually kind of invisible. however, he did show up for the money and assumed me and Elli were dating; which is alright I guess it was definitely my turn for the bill.  However we are as straight as can be.  We chose the pizza bar which we thought would be a great idea! IT also wasn't a good idea, most all you can eat pizza bars have more than 3 choices.  When they brought the new pizza out we were a little bit happier.  Papa Murphy's is much better, and cheaper too =D  Elli thought the salad bar was great, and she doesn't even like salad (this was due to the small amount of lettuce and extreme amount of ham and cheese I believe).  At the end of our meal we decided we needed a desert, so we got some cinnamon crumble stuff.  Not worth it.  The barely present waiter so kindly lied to us when we asked if it was good.  I also learned a lesson from elli, "never trust silverware in dark restaurants." Turns out we were also drinking from a dirty pitcher all lunch...  But.... The arcade was fun! we spent 8 dollars and got eye patches, we even flirted with the cute man taking our tickets. We probably won't be returning for the pizza, or to return the really nice pen we stole while signing the bill. Another restaurant off the list!

Tropical Smoothie Cafe

Elli found a cute little cafe literally right up the road from us.  So we had no choice but to try it out tonight.  The smoothies are fabulous and cheaper than Emerald Smoothie, wahoo! They are sweetened with Turbinado instead of sugar,  sounds healthy to me =)  I got a wrap that I probably would not get again, not worth 7 bucks.  However Elli's sandwich was really delicious.  Oh and the smoothies were hhhuge! so they were worth the money. the girl who helped us was super cute and friendly, we decided we should probably be her friend but didn't know how to approach that in an unawkward way so we decided we would think how to be better at making friends.  We also saw multiple attractive men walk in (and in the drive through)  Which means it's definitely a great hangout place.  We will probably return for the smoothies!

Ah'sya

The very first place we actually tried when we decided we needed to taste new things was Ah'sya.  It's a Vietnamese restaurant hidden behind Texas Roadhouse. It's delicious. We were so pleased we have actually cheated and gone to this restaurant more than once, before we have even tried all the other ones in St. George.  I have never tasted Vietnamese food so it was a refreshing new change.  They put mint and peanuts in almost every single dish.  It's similar to Thai food. There egg rolls and spring rolls are soooo good.  However, Elli hated the spring rolls, keep in mind she does not like most things ;) especially vegetables.  the fried rice is her favorite, I'd have to agree it is very good.  After eating the food I feel completely satisfied and not too full or disgusted like many restaurants.  The man who owns it does everything himself.  He is very fast and waits on every table, I have never seen another waiter or waitress. Hes super friendly and  makes top quality food for his customers.

Paula's Cazuela

Today we went to Paula's! we knew exactly where it was. We thought ;) but... we ended up turning a street to soon and adventured through a cute little neighborhood with all kinds of Chinese gnomes in their yards. Eventually we found it, and we are glad we did. The salsa is the perfect hotness for me (i'm a whimp when it comes to hot things) and super tasty even for Elli who likes things on fire.  The food was delicious =D we'd have to rate it better than Cafe Rio and similar in price range. Our waiter was really nice and they were very fast. I got Fajita's which we agreed were better than Elli's choice, Paula's special Burrito. Next time she will get chicken.  We didn't finish our food cause there was so much and left over Mexican food is no bueno. But we had more than enough.  The waitress got a good tip and we were on our way.   I think I recognized the hostess, and she acted a little bit like she knew me and wish she didn't. However, Elli thinks she just isn't a very friendly person. One more checked off the list.

This all started with the phonebook. who would have known that all the restaurants are all conveniently located in one spot, the phonebook. It is actually used occasionally in this Google ruled world ;) Elli had a great idea, le'ts try every single restaurant we have never been to, is around 250... minus 50.  I, Mckena, was quickly convinced.  And so we start our Journey... slowly ofcourse, since we are poor college students (this could take a very long time). Anyhow, because we are taking the time to try all of them we decided we must share with the world =)
