Vueve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut Champagne


A delicious Champagne in a distinctive orange label, this is a label that has been around since 1772. Less expensive than some fine champagne's, this is still an excellent champagne, especially for the price. You will not be disappointed by the fine taste and excellent aroma.

This is an excellent Middle Eastern restaurant in a little strip mall near my mother's place in Cleveland Heights. And don't let the outside fool you, the inside is really cute, and playing Turkish music. The wait staff is quite nice, and the service is quick, the food that is tasty and inexpensive.

For my birthday dinner my mother took us out to dinner at this excellent seafood restaurant right on the lake with an amazing view of downtown Cleveland and the whole harbor. We got the best table in the house, right on the water, and the food was absolutely amazing. If you like seafood this place is top notch, and not that expensive at about $50 a person including appetizers, and if you can get the top notch seats then your view will be amazing.

In a Shopping Mall in Burbank, North of the Media Center mall, and right next to the Gelato and Ice Cream place Creme De La Creme which I just reviewed. I still don't know the story of why the one in Los Angeles is not on the web site, but I do know that was the first one, so there must have been a family dispute. Anyway, this one is as delicious as the original, but has a photo menu and 2 cashier's, one for cash and one for credit. the food is inexpensive and top notch.

Right next to Zhankou Chicken, and owned by the same people (not the same as the one in Hollywood, but the same food). When they first opened they gave out free samples, and they will still let you try anything. The people are friendly and the dessert is inexpensive and delicious. This is a must try if you have a sweet tooth and are in Burbank.
