    Empanada criolla $3 and really delicious
    Clariee J.

    Just in case anyone's wondering, it's still delicious if you Door Dash it. I got a Caribbean sandwich this time. Bread was soft and warm, the veggie meat and green olives inside gave some nice salty bites. I dunno what the sauce is but it's good. Careful, though; this is one of those sandwiches that will spill out the back when you bite it if you're not careful. The empanadas were smaller than I expected but also as delicious as I expected. That spicy potato one is GOOD. The spinach feta is good too but paired with the salty sandwich, it tasted a bit salty as well. The yuca fries are yuca fries :)

    The customer service is awesome. The food is just as great. It's a nice place that is comfortable for eating and is overall a nice environment. The food is superb. I tried a Caribbean Sandwich and I felt like buying a whole lot more. I truly recommend it.

    A simple cafe with a GREAT menu!

    Look! I need good tasting food that is good for me and fills me up so that I won't need to be snacking within 90 minutes. That's what I get at TC. This is a menu that bends toward latin cuisine without breaking the bank. The secret here is that the menu is SO good that you wouldn't know that it is largely VEGAN. There it is. I said it. It's H-E-A-L-T-H-Y. We typically pick the entree of the day, a side and a couple of fresh salads. We are never disappointed. It's not fast food, because it is good food. You can watch them make it. There will be a friendly staff member ready to answer your questions about each item and make recommendations. Hey, I highly recommend it!

The staff is excellent, they are quick, efficient and know exactly what it takes to keep those youngsters engaged as they anxiously await the arrival of that "special shake", they might have ordered.

Not sure what's going on with their sprinkles but they are somehow better than any other sprinkles I've ever had?? Like extra crunchy? Insane. Spectacular.

I enjoyed a creamy swirled soft serve--just right. Jeremiah's Italian Ice is a colorful industrial spot that focuses mostly on decorating Italian ice with candied this and that--not for me. If you are into all of that Jeremiah's got lots of it. The server was charming as she explained the difference between "gelato" and "gelati". I think I got it. Keep an eye out for Jeremiah's Italian Ice on the end of the Snow Hill Publix complex right next to I-75's famous exit 11.

We ordered the brown butter chocolate chip, chocolate fudge, and pumpkin spice cookies. All three were delicious and had a "personality" of their own. The brown butter was chewy and reminded me of French toast with chocolate chips. The chocolate fudge was flavored like a brownie that melted in my mouth. The pumpkin spice is hard to explain, it was neither crunchy nor chewy, but deliciously loaded with flavors that you would find with a Thanksgiving dessert. Michelle is really good at her craft and very knowledgeable about the ingredients she uses. Her labels show clean ingredients you can actually read and understand. When I spoke with her, I was initially shocked that she can customize your cookies for you. "What flours and sweeteners do you prefer?" "Do you have any allergies?" I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this. We were able to place our order and pick up in town the next day. Thanks so much.

It was a pretty small store (in a small town) but it was somewhat busy when we visited. They had all of the normal snack cakes you find in grocery stores plus some extra. They had an extensive selection of "manager specials," some deals better than others. Also, keep in mind it is an outlet store, so some dates were definitely a bit close. I just made sure to look at the dates and think about, realistically, what I could eat in that time frame, and it was fine. The cashier was very nice and helpful. I also picked up a couple magnets to give to some family members for Christmas. Overall a very cool experience! I would stop by again if I was in the area.
