    Fried rice with fried veggies and teriyaki chicken
    Maggie M.

    Small Asian grocery store that has what you need. Rice, noodles, vegetables, butcher shop with fish and meat, eggs, sauces, snacks, can goods, frozen section with wonton or eggroll wrappers, potstickers, etc. They also have a hot food counter. Rice and 2 side or noodles and 2 sides combos about $10 to $12. They have empanadas for $2.50 each and a variety of asian appetizers. There was so much to choose from. Food is delicious and at a great price.

    AUTHENTIC And ready to take home Philippine food. The employees are always very polite, in the food is always just as I remember eating in the Philippines. You can dined in, or take out ready to go meals either for individual or family size. Adobo, Kaldereta, Pakbet, fried fish and many street food favorites from the Philippines. The restaurant is located inside the Asian grocery store which also has many hard to find imported Asian specialty foods.

    This is the place where we go to for our groceries They have most or all that you will need to cook filipino food. Selections are awesome! So that is a 5 star right there but this review is for the take out section. The restaurant side of it is below par compare to other filipino restaurants nearby but the price is a lot cheaper. We ordered a small menudo to go for $6.99 and as we start eating, mostly carrots and potatoes. Not sure what the ratio is with the ingredients and meat with their dishes but definitely this one was not an even one. It is a hit or miss with this place, like we love their lumpiang shanghai and pinakbet but fail on the others. There are other three restaurants in the area, FM Asian food mart and Unimart are by Woodridge, and South Sea in Bolingbrook. Try each one and see which one meets your taste buds. Happy Eating!

Each and every location features plentiful parking, a social media worthy interior, comfortable elegant seating, and quality desserts that consistently delight everyone who has the opportunity to try them. On my visit here, I tried a different set of items from my Schaumburg visit to test the consistency of quality across different flavor profiles and dessert types, and it delivered perfectly. The mango gelato here is incredible -- with probably the strongest mango flavor I've ever had in a gelato. The Lotus was an elevated version of one of my favorite biscuits. The gelato is incredible, creamy and flavorful -- and something I'd happily serve with most any dessert. The waffle was flavorful as usual which paired perfectly with the chocolate mix. I also wanted to try My Passion to get a mix of different fruits -- as I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh the fruit was at the other location. This was equally as great, with fruit presented at the perfect ripeness. Extra kudos to the kiwi which wasn't sour at all, and in fact was one of the first items to be finished completely. The pineapple was also super juicy, sweet, and flavorful. I wish we'd gotten more eclairs, as the filling was super delicious. Maybe the weakest item in this dish was the brownie, which was only good -- while everything else we'd tried was great to amazing. Overall, worth a special trip for any dessert lover. This business consistently delivers top notch dishes at very reasonable prices.

Crumbs were left and it was dirty. I called for someone multiple times. Heard people talking in back and no one came. My family looked at me and said we need to go. If the case was full and pretty like the pictures showed and someone came I would not be giving this negative review but I have no time for this. Completely disappointing.

Chocolate and peanut butter? Ho hum. Booze and baked goods? Now you're talking! GP caught my eye with the frosting. Walking into the Encore Liquid Lounge (which sells a good its a$$ can't cash, but that's another thing), I was hypnotized by these strange blue cupcakes. Anyone who reads my reviews knows I can't resist anything colored blue, purple or red, so I had to know what was up. Imagine my surprise when I discovered by blue hypnosis was due to Hpnotiq cupcakes! You read that correctly: BLUE cupcakes made with and tasted like Hpnotiq. And, yes, you could get a buzz. Well, you know I had to have one. Or, 8. Tracey, the owner, is rightfully proud of her product and after we got to talking how I was going to be her new best friend/stalker, she made sure I left with a small box of the baked goods. Lest you think, however, that I am not klassy and only fall head over heels for blue treats, I'll have you know that I gorged on: cognac, amaretto, apple martini (GREEN with apple bits on the inside!), and strawberry margarita (keep me near the cross; these made me go on a mama-slapping rampage that was only quieted by passing out from the sheer rip-your-clothes-off goodness at eating a strawberry cake, topped with berry/tequila frosting and filled with boozy berries treat). Don't sit in judgement of me: you would have done the same thing.. and I might have been drunk from cupcakes (first time for everything!). These truly are guilty pleasures but don't wait too long to deny yourself. What's life without some indulgence? *Well, not *all* of them. Ohh yeahhh!!!

I was happy to wait and I was handed the box it felt warm but once I was in the car and excited to break off a small piece on the way home I realized it was still frozen. I also ordered a crème brulee gluten free/keto cookie. It smelled delicious but the texture was dense and crumbly at the same time without a lot of flavor. The shop is cute and they had some festive Halloween themed cookies for those that tolerate gluten but for the gluten sensitive, I think there are better options.

As with other gourmet cookie places, there are no tables and chairs inside; it's takeout only. Service was friendly. They have a selection of always-available cookies, and a weekly selection of two specialty cookies. We ordered a cupcake cookie, a creme brulee, a celebration cookie, and a keto chocolate chip cookie. Oh my goodness! These are some of the best cookies I've had. The cupcake, creme brulee, and celebration were all delicious, especially the first two. The keto cookie being sugar-free was not super tasty, but it has far less sugar than the regular cookies, so it's a worthy trade-off. All gourmet cookie places are expensive, but these are way better than grocery store cookies. If you've got a craving, this is the place to go.
