Pho-getabout it! Kim's Pho is Slurping Good!
To get it out of the way early, yes, I know the correct pronunciation of the word "Pho" is "FA." So, the title should be read, "FAGETABOUTIT" in a northeaster accent. Now, back to our visit! When I moved to the Tulsa area back in 2017, I was immediately on the search for a solid restaurant that offered Pho with deep, rich, luxurious broth and pieces of meat which were both large and tasty. I also wanted that same place to have shrimp rolls with peanut sauce. Why such specific

Everything Old is New Again! Grazi!
Mama Mia! Luigi's Italian Restaurant, a mainstay of Skiatook, has come to PLAY! Last week, we took a little drive over to Owasso to check out the recently-opened Luigi's Italian Restaurant. We have eaten at their Skiatook location several times, but this was a first for us.

This time, I was able to not only enjoy the food myself, but I invited a friend who just recently move to Tulsa who had not eaten at The Bramble. I have eaten at both locations, this time we chose to dine at the location in the Pearl District (close to where much of The Lowdown television show was filmed). As always, the staff was very friendly when my friend Ron and I entered the res

Let’s chat about The Chatroom
I couldn’t think of a better place from which to kick-off our first official review. Located on historic Route 66 between Verdigris and Claremore, Oklahoma, The Chatroom occupies an unassuming long and low building adjacent to a used car dealership. Walking into the restaurant, one is immediately hit with an over saturation of the senses. My eyes still adjust from the sunlight to find myself inside a colorful mix of Asian-influenced table dressing and what appears to be a dan
