Dinner Review!

So I went to Best Thai in Frisco last night; as well as a new local cupcake place right across the street. My wife and I went with our little clan of Keith, Laurie, Kelly and Matt. Now, when I got there, I was a little scared because they changed the menus!! After my minor stroke, I realized they just put it in some nice binding and took away the "numbers" from each entree. I was used to saying, "Yeah, I'll take the number 26."
No mas. Once I found what I usually get, I was good. Funny how I make fun of my wife for always getting the same thing over and over, yet I do the same thing at this place. So, I ended up getting the "Spicy Noodle", which is big flat noodles with broccoli, carrots, chili-garlic sauce, tomatoes and some other things. It's damn good.
Now when you order, you can choose your spice, 1-5, 1 being "pussy" and 5 being "night in the bathroom". I got a 3, which is what I usually get and it's not so bad, so I added more chili sauce. Ok, so now for my review. Portion size, it seems to be different every time I go, and this time it was average I would say. Other than that, I have no complaints. Service is fast, the place is clean, and the food is always really tasty. I give it a 4.5 outta 5, just because the prices are a LITTLE high for what you get and portions never seem to be consistent.
Now for dessert. We walked across the street to DimplesCupcakes to try our hand at a new place in town. Kelly said the funniest thing when this crazy lady working there went on a rant about the cupcakes (I think it's what they have to say to first time customers, which she asked when we walked through the door). She said it's called "Dimples" because while you eat one it puts a smile on your face, causing a dimple. Kelly mumbles to herself, "Are you sure it's not because of the dimples it puts in your ass after you eat one." Damn.
So, to the cupcakes. They are not small, that's for sure. But they are not worth $4.00 a pop either. They didn't have too many flavors to choose from, they had Strawberry Shortcake, Lemon, Red Velvet with Cream Cheese, Oreo, Chocolate with Cream Cheese, and I think a Chocolate Mocha. The actual cupcake was pretty dense, and not light and fluffy. There wasn't really anywhere to sit for six people. Those who got the red velvet loved it, everyone else was so-so. I had red velvet. Overall, I give it a 3.5 out of 5.
