Two weeks ago, I was in Virginia Beach for a class learning software for my position. For some…read moredays, I brought food from home to eat during lunch. Luckily, the building where class was held also included Gourmet Gang. I used to order from them a bunch when I worked in Chesapeake and Norfolk in previous jobs. So I was well aware of what they offered. Let's see how the food came out. For two days during my time in Virginia Beach, I ordered Ceasar salad from the crew. All you have is romaine lettuce, Mediterranean pasta, parmesean cheese and croutons along with Ceasar dressing. And I had a side order of chips for both occasions. Just like the many times I ordered from the previous locations, this one really hit the spot. Each order was put together well and yours truly was full after each serving. I really didn't need the chips since the salads were large, but they were a great compliment. Gourmet Gang, thanks once again for making a great customer happy and fufilled. You guys rock as always. Keep up the great work :)

The chicken cordon blue was put in a plastic bag which was nice it was fresh and crispy. It was delicious and tasty. I would come back to buy more next time.

My son and daughter-in-law hired Sweetwater Cuisine for their wedding, and unfortunately, the…read morewedding day did not live up to the experience they had during the planning process. As the mother of the groom, I watched the day unfold from behind the scenes. There were multiple issues throughout the event, including late chair delivery, incorrect tablecloths, hors d'oeuvres that never made it to many guests, buffet items that ran out before everyone was served, and desserts that many guests--including the bride and groom--never received. Our day-of coordinator also had to step in several times to clear plates, refill the buffet, and manage tasks that should have been handled by the catering staff. We understand that no wedding is perfect, but the level of disorganization was disappointing. One staff member was even socializing with guests and asking if he could join the dancing, which felt very unprofessional. To the owner's credit, she met with my son and daughter-in-law afterward, but the resolution offered did not reflect the impact these issues had on such an important day. There are so many outstanding wedding caterers in the Hampton Roads area. Before making such a significant investment with this company, I encourage couples to do their research, compare several companies, and read recent reviews carefully. I hope this helps other couples make an informed decision.

I love accidentally discovering new businesses! I visited JR Street Dining on accident just…read moreswinging by Smartmouth Pilot House for some "fast food" via food truck after work. They have only been operating for a month now, this was their third brewery appearance. For appetizers they have a buffalo chicken dip and pimento cheese nacho- talk about solid brewery apps! Most of their menu items are types of wraps. Their special was chicken fajita tacos (Cinco de Mayo celebration) and for dessert they had a crispy ice cream sandwich. One unique thing that I don't see many food trucks do, is they offer kids menu items as well! Again- it is just their third day- this could all be totally different once they are more established and have tried different things. I opted to get the ice cream sandwich, because I'm a total sucker for dessert. I ate this first. Two crispy shells with a cinnamon sugar mix and if I'm not wrong it possibly a second seasoning that had a little kick to it. Maybe it was a touch of cayenne? Definitely not strong or overpowering in spice, just a little something to make it interesting. In the middle was a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a scoop of chocolate ice cream. The vanilla was complimented by the cinnamon and the chocolate was complimented by whatever that other ingredient was. I was definitely a fan! The more I ate the more I wanted more! I also got the chicken fajita taco special. I should point out that if I didn't go for the food truck option at Smartmouth I was headed to my favorite taco spot in VB. Maybe it was the unintentional comparison of the authentic street taco from my favorite spot, but these tacos fell a little flat for me. Not letting it really affect my review, because I did eat dessert first and then I messed around taking pictures before getting to them. It might be a "it's not you, it's me" thing with the tacos- I'll own this one. The tacos were served with a side of corn on the cob. It had a lemon cilantro butter which was fantastic! I'll definitely be craving that corn again sometime! The prices were on the lower-side of average for the food truck scene in Hampton Roads. Prices are another thing that might change as they are in business longer. They were also extra friendly from the moment I stepped up to the truck! Offering me whatever I needed and even getting out of the truck to come ask me a question of convenience, not necessity. I know several spots that would have just shouted it or not even bothered. So far so good! I hope they keep popping up at Smartmouth VB so I can try more of their menu and see how they change things up as they get a few more months of operation behind them! I'll definitely be updating as I try more! Next time I'm definitely going for the pimento cheese nachos!

No regrets there -- that naan understood the assignment. When I try a new Indian spot, I always go with butter chicken as my baseline. I ordered mine "medium hot" because I like spice, but I like flavor more than I like questioning my life choices while sweating through dinner. The flavor was great, portion of rice was HUGE (like... rice for days), but the spice level? Let's just say it politely waved at me from across the room. Next time, we're going full "Indian hot." My friend got the chicken tikka amritsari, which came in one of those elite takeout containers with the little compartments -- we love organization. It looked amazing: chicken, veggies, sauce, the whole situation. He ordered "Indian hot" and... same story. Delicious, but not exactly setting off the fire alarm. He enjoyed it, just wished it brought a little more heat. Only downside: dinner prices for takeout were a bit on the higher side. But overall, really good food -- we just learned that next time, when they say spicy... we need to say spicier.

I rented out the venue and they catered it to my likings. I had an all white party, they had the linens and some decoration already so that saved me money right there.

The filipino/american food was so good and tasty. If you are looking for a place to rent you have to come here! They accommodate any type of function and events.

I found their IG page and started to follow them so I can catch them when they're in an area near me. The day I went they were at Benchtop Brewery in Norfolk. It's a lovely husband and wife duo that serves up some yummy Lao food. They make it fresh so give them a little grace while you wait but it will be so worth it! For my first visit I had the wings and combo and here's the breakdown. With the combo you choose a protein, I chose the Lao sausage with sticky rice, papaya salad and 2 eggrolls. It came with 5 different sauces. The flavor of the sausage was so good! And the papaya salad is the best I've had. I had the mild version and it was a perfect spice for me and I've tried so many.

Lori and Tania have been incredibly helpful and so pleasant to work with. Most recently, I hosted a gathering for 20+ employees and selected YG's heavy hors d'oeuvres option. A gentleman arrived right on time and set up everything as requested. Bonus - we can't use open sterno and YG brought a flameless option for hot foods. Hours later, it was still piping hot! The buffet included ham biscuits with a sweet jam on the most flavorful cheddar herb biscuits I've tasted! Also served were meatballs with mozzarella and marinara, chickpea cakes with pesto, spinach dip with crostini and pita bread, brie en croute with dried fruits, almonds and crackers and a Mexican cookie dessert tray with chocolate dip. Everything was beautifully displayed and so delicious! We had plenty of leftovers as well, which will be meals for days. I look forward to using Yummy Goodness for future events.
