Carol's Kitchen kept coming up as one of the better options in the area, so I made the detour. What I didn't expect was that "tucked away" would mean tucked into a commercial business building, the kind of place you'd expect to find an insurance adjuster's waiting room, not lunch. Walking in, the only other person there was someone waiting on a to-go order. My first thought was that I'd made a mistake. The space felt sterile, stale, more office park than kitchen. I was wrong. Minutes from closing and not planning to come back through town, I asked the counter what people order. Buffalo chicken wrap, they said. I added a kolache -- they had an everything bacon version that caught my eye -- and a side of bacon potato salad. The order came out in brown to-go containers, and I walked back to the car bracing for disappointment. The kolache was a revelation. I'm not a connoisseur, I couldn't grade one against the platonic ideal, but if this is what they can be, then kolaches deserve a much wider audience. That pastry alone is reason enough to come back. The buffalo chicken wrap was right behind it: hearty, full flavored, well-balanced, in a tortilla with just enough toast to give it some structure. The potato salad looked, at first, like it was skimping on quantity, barely more than a dallop, but by the time I'd worked through the kolache and half of the wrap, I was full and grateful that half the wrap was still in the bag for later. My only real regret is that the leftovers won't taste the same when they're not at temperature. 4.6 stars, what not a solid five you ask? Here's where Carol's Kitchen breaks my brain a little. The food is warm, charming, careful -- the kind of meal that wants to be eaten slowly, at a table, with a conversation going. It's a country welcome. But the room is the opposite of that. It's a 30 Rock situation: Kenneth Parcell got dropped into a corporate office building and started cooking lunch for the suits. The food keeps trying to invite you to stay; the building keeps trying to push you back out to your car. The two are wildly out of sync. Service was on par with what you'd expect from a grab-and-go counter, helpful, not warm, doing the job. Nothing to complain about, but nothing matching what the food is reaching for, either. What I keep coming back to is that Carol's Kitchen deserves a different room. A table-service space with a slower pace, somewhere a community could build around what this kitchen is putting out. As it stands, the concept of the spot and the concept of the food are at odds, and the food is the one losing the argument. Still, if someone suggested going back later the same day, I wouldn't hesitate. I'd just be sad about the room again.

Animall seems to have guinea pigs and cats available for adoption all the time, and then at certain times, dogs and rabbits. There's a store cat that hangs out by the register ignoring people as they pay for their goodies. The rabbits and guinea pigs don't seem to last long, as there's usually an "adoption pending" sign within a short time. The big open space near the front of the store, during adoption events, usually has a large open top cage for the dogs. Like Kristen said in her review, there's a lot of space here, and not a lot of product. But, what they do carry, at least in the non-food items, is a little different than what you'll find in the big box stores. The mugs and picture frames, for example, are adorable. If you're in the mall, this is a place worth visiting to pick up a small toy for your four-legged friend or a gift for yourself. And if you don't have a furry friend, you can adopt one here. Animall makes it easy to shop, find a furry friend, and stock the house with the required pet accoutrement. And if you don't want to adopt, it's nice knowing the proceeds from any sale here goes to various pet shelters in the area.

Check out their calendar -…read morethey are always having different rescues in the area bring their dogs up for adoption on the weekends. This is a pretty big store but found that their selection was just okay - there was a lot of bare space. They do have some pretty cool dog toys that I haven't seen before - which is a nice break from the typical toys. They have an okay selection of dog food - great no grain selection. They have kittens, hampsters, and guinea pigs there for purchase but a pretty small amount of actual supplies. I will definitely be back for more events and to get my favorite no grain brand...but I probably wouldn't go here for supplies.

But this place is quite expansive with several areas including wildlife, butterfly and insect garden, a train tour that takes 2 laps around (might as well get it for the $6 a ticket), and several outdoor play areas including a tree house and mist/water areas. Place was crowded, but there were still plenty of spaces available at 10:30 in the garage. If I lived closer, I might consider a membership to save costs, but I live too far currently to justify that. The cafe food was mid, and again too expensive. The pricing for me knocks a star off, but if you've never been and are prepared to spend a couple hundred bucks for the day on a family of 4, you'll probably enjoy!

The little gift shop was also great with lots of children's games, clothing items, toys, and more. If I was in the area I would definitely consider an annual pass. All of the staff were lovely from the train driver to the ticket takers. Fun location!
