April 25, 2014 Piperi

After enjoying my lunch at Piperi, I decided to stop in for dinner. It is much quieter at dinner time, and I kind of like that. Unfortunately I have missed Tim, the owner, I would have liked to have had a chance to chat with him. Americo greets me as warmly as he did when […]

April 16, 2014 Fajitas and ‘Ritas

Fajitas and ‘Ritas was established in 1989. It sits on West Street, just around the corner from the Opera House. We stopped in for lunch on Saturday afternoon. It has a different vibe in the afternoon – there are more families that come in, as opposed to a Friday or Saturday night when the place […]
