Great Food, Charming Atmosphere

Tue, 6 Jul 2004 18:38:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - Po is one of those terrific small neighborhood restaurants that offers an interesting (and delicious) selection of dishes. Reservations at this small restaurant on Cornelia Street are required (unless you are willing to take your chances on a horribly...

Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa: Las Vegas (finally) Comes to Atlantic City

Mon, 29 Mar 2004 10:44:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - The Borgata sets a new standard for Atlantic City hotels. From the moment we checked we saw a difference in the quality of service from other hotels. Our check-in clerk was friendly and offered us a choice of room - from floor level to view. Our...

It Ain't JetBlue

Fri, 7 Nov 2003 14:48:19 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - I travel extensively for business and wound up flying Song from Tampa to New York with a one way ticket. So my review is based on one trip. The fare was no better or worse than other flights to NY that day. It was however the only airline who flew direct...

Katzs - One Hotdog lovers opinion

Fri, 6 Jul 2001 18:35:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - With all the hulabaloo about the Stage and the Carnegie and the 2nd Avenue, I feel the need to put in a good word for Katzs Deli on Houston Street.

As a native NY'er, I was raised on NYC hotdogs and, without a doubt, Katzs has the best hotdog...

Loews Portofino Bay: Portofino - Go To Italy Instead

Sat, 17 Feb 2001 17:05:44 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - I recently stayed at the Lowes Portofino Hotel in Orlando for business and was profoundly disappointed with both my treatment at check-in and with the lack of simple services that should be basic in every $400+ night hotel.

When I arrived at...

A Small Snack

Mon, 29 Jan 2001 11:07:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - Chocolat is one beautifully filmed move. It has that mysterious, European quality that leads the viewer to think "This is a really upscale foreign type film." The characters all have European accents (even Johnny Depp who plays a Gypsy- go figure).

The Best Fish Restaurant in NY

Sun, 20 Feb 2000 12:55:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - Aquagrill is by far my most favorite fish restaurant. This restaurant is almost impossible to get into and with good reason; the menu is wonderful offering an array of fresh fish and excellent complementary vegetables. The oysters are delicious and the...

A great place in Midtown

Sun, 20 Feb 2000 12:36:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - Although I have passed the RedEye Grill on many occasions, it was not until someone recommended it for a business lunch that I had an opportunity to dine there. What a nice surprise!

As you walk in there are fresh fish displayed. Everything...

A Surprise In My Pasta!

Thu, 17 Feb 2000 19:28:55 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - I used to be a regular at The Minetta Tavern. Although the food was average, the ambiance of the restaurant made it a warm and comfortable (not to mention convenient)dining experience. My favorite dish there was actually off the menu and, as a regular,...

Check your bill !!!

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - A word of warning to all who purchase AOL by the hour:

I have a plan that offers $4.95 for the first three hours and $2.50 for each additional hour per month. Over the past five months I have seen my bill grow exponentially. Generally it ran about...

Help line? Forgetaboutit!

Fri, 7 Jan 2000 15:46:46 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - I am a generally mild mannered soul, but even the though of dealing with AOL drives me crazy.

The ongoing problem:

I go on to AOL and in the middle of whatever, I lose the connection. Sometimes it happens immediately. Sometimes ten...

Had A (Volcano) Blast!

Thu, 23 Dec 1999 14:34:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - We had the good fortune to stay at the Mirage with 20 of our closest friends last April for a huge birthday weekend. It was my first time visiting Las Vegas in about 22 years so I expected change, but was bowled over by the entire strip and greatly...

gender-profiling and seat assignments

Tue, 21 Dec 1999 11:34:45 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author charlene1130 - Airline travel is crowded and uncomfortable which is why I always try to request a bulkhead seat. These seats, I am told by American Airlines, cannot be reserved beforehand; they are distributed at check in. Strangely though, no matter how early I arrive...
