Movies $4 Less at the LaBelle Theatre Movie Theater isn't a restaurant, no. BUT, I went with my friend Sara recently, and we got some snacks that I wanted to share.

This historic theater has recently taken on a new life as a discount movie theater. Movies that have just left the theater are played here at a steep discount - just $4 a ticket - and the concessions are all $3. Those snacks include unlimited popcorn, unlimited fountain drinks, candy, pepperoni rolls and pizza.

I went with a combo of drink, popcorn, and candy for $8. Plus my ticket at $4 - so this was a $12 visit! Sara went with some pepperoni rolls, too. I was under the impression these were regular pepperoni rolls from Gino's next door, but they're a bit more special.

They're made specifically for the theater and come in a set of four pinwheels. So, they have a nice crisp to them. Have you been yet?

It's always fun to discover a new restaurant - for me, at least. And on one of my most recent trips to Morgantown, I stumbled upon Uncle Mike's Bar-B-Que.

Located in Westover, this BBQ restaurant once started as a hot dog cart - called Summertime Hot Dogs - and has now expanded to include pulled pork, brisket, smoked kielbasa - and hot dogs.

While I do love pulled pork, I think you can almost get a better feel for a place by trying the brisket because it requires a certain finesse. So I went with a brisket platter with sides of Mike's Mountain Man Beans and potato salad (forgot my cornbread, so I'll have to try that next time).


The flavor of the brisket was great. There were some burnt end pieces of bark, which were nice. Admittedly, the owner said the trainees need a bit more work with slicing the brisket. But as long as it tastes good, I'm happy. And those pork & beans had a bit of heat, but they were good. The potato salad was tasty, too, though those carrots are a bit crunchier than I'd like. Overall, a good plate.

Wildflour has been an amazing food truck in the Fairmont area and recently opened a brick-and-mortar space in town.

Set with picnic tables and colorful umbrellas, the building is so cute and quirky.

Inside, there are booths around the dining space and tables in the center. There's a long list of specials as soon as you walk in and more on the back chalkboard.

I ordered the "Bleu and Gold Forever" from Comfort Foods, which is homemade shells and cheese with buffalo chicken, and bleu ranch drizzle, along with a side of fresh fruit.

This dish has some great flavors going on. To kick it up even another notch, I would have this much warmer, weed out some of the chewier pieces of chicken and double the amount of green onion. That really brings out some more notes of flavor! Yum.

There's a new restaurant in Weston called The West Fork Eatery.


It is a breakfast and lunch restaurant that serves up dutch babies, chicken and waffles, and crepes.

The interior is the cutest - dark wood, industrial feel with a center bar area that opens to the kitchen.


I stopped by for breakfast quickly and ordered one of their homemade blueberry muffins - always one of my favorites. I tend to like mine very moist, but this one was still tasty with big bites of blueberries.

For my main dish, I went with a savory dutch baby, which is similar to a pancake and popover with welled edges. This one was filled with spinach and herbs, and a side of butter.

The texture of this dutch baby was perfect. It has a nice, firm, yet smooth texture, and the flavor was very mild. I added some salt to bring some out, and that helped. Onions would take this dish over the top.

Overall, a really cool environment and some unique menu items. Have you been?

The Fuel Counter is a make-your-own sandwich, salad and pizza shop that has a location in Huntington.

And, they recently opened up another location in Barboursville. It's a small space, but perfect for takeout.

So I went with a pizza: red sauce, ricotta, mozzarella, spinach, mushrooms, fig and balsamic glaze.
