Huh, I hadn't realized they came back as a restaurant. Thought they only stuck with being a bakery supplying Food Lion.

They sell all the stuff you see at grocery stores and more in the market hall ! And then there’s a hot bar with all sorts of stuff (including some delicious chicken!)

They distribute to more than just Food Lion. Kroger, Publix, Wegmans, and Harris Teeter all carry their stuff. Kroger carries the most options, and also sells their stuff throughout the Mid-Atlanitc.

Almost every Mexican restaurant has lunch specials. I go to Pepe’s and get combos for $7.75 or fajitas for $10.

Every Mexican joint in town has a Speedy Gonzales. The one at Pepe's is $6.95 for comparison

Not really around town, but the Takara Ramen lunch special is pretty excellent, they give you a ginger-carrot salad and two Korean style wings along with your ramen for like 10$

do they still do this deal? I think they stopped this a while back and they still were not doing it as of a few months ago?

My favorite is Anohka, entree, soup or salad, vegetable of the day, rice, naan, dessert. But it’s in short pump. Lemon has started doing the vegetable thing too but they’re always too spicy for me

Spec-Tre OP t1_j4xp7z6 wrote

How spicy you talking for lemon? I like Anokhas lunch

2

[deleted] t1_j4xz0xo wrote

Not spicy at first but quickly creeps to medium/ hot and makes my nose run. Kind of a black pepper flavor. We don’t eat it, but I wish we could. Its been mixed vegetables in some kind of broth the last couple of visits.
