The Dairy Freeze has burgers, BBQ sandwiches, hot dogs, and other sandwiches. Plus a variety of fried sides like potato skins, french fries, onion rings, fried mushrooms, broccoli bites and more.
But the real star for me, as always, is the ice cream. They have a version of the blizzard called "Kandy Koolers."
I went through the drive-thru (!!) and ordered a medium Oreo Kandy Kooler.
The medium is not only huge, but there are real, huge chunks of Oreo in it! I can't wait to try the other flavors.
In the Charleston-Huntington area, there really aren't a ton of places to find a macaron.
Macarons are s a confection made up of two round, flat, almond-flour-based cookies sandwiching a filling like cream, ganache or jam - not the shredded coconut mound cookies.
So when Abbey Shae Bakes burst onto the scene on four wheels dishing out unique flavored macarons, it shot up on my list of places to try. I recently was able to catch her in Huntington.
She had strawberry lemonade, salty caramel, orange creamsicle, cookies & cream and cotton candy flavors. I had to try one - or two - of each. Wow! She now has her fall flavors out, so be sure to catch her.
They have a few different ice cream flavors that can be made into a milkshake, float, sundae, banana split and more.
I went for a "cookie dough extreme" sundae topped with caramel and a cherry.
Have you been?
The restaurant focuses on Chinese, sushi, hibachi, Thai and more, so it's kind of a one-stop-shop for everything Asian.
Because it was unique to this location, I tried the "Teays Valley Roll," which had shrimp tempura, mango, spicy crab salad, spicy mayo, eel sauce and masago - all things I love!
What's your favorite thing here?
The menus are pretty much the same with Italian and Greek fare, so I've been trying different things.
First, I started with a house salad, which comes with feta, olives and red onion.
Then, came the garlic bread to eat with my pasta.
And finally chicken parmesan! Any pasta topped with sauce and cheese has my name written all over it.
