China King Tyler Texas

January 16th, 2010

China King, Tyler, Texas is located at 4542 S Broadway Ave and it’s a Chinese Restaurant buffet style. If you enjoy Asian food and you like lots of varieties, then you should go to China King. Going there for me is easy and convenient and I enjoy being able to select all kinds of food choices. They have a salad bar that boasts lots of good salad selections. They have a meat and veggie table that has fried rice, noodles, shrimp, sushi and a good selection of desserts. Soft drinks are also available for you for a small price. Anytime you are in a hurry, but enjoy trying new foods, then the China King is the place for you.

The quality of service and price will fit your budget. From my experience $25.00 will feed two people easily. I love the idea of not having to wait for your food to get prepared and just being able to go and eat right away…especially if you are starved. There is no limit on how much you can eat while you are there. You can go back as many times as you want.

The best thing is at the end of the meal when you get one of those fortune cookies. Those are always fun but of course, I don’t take it seriously, I just enjoy seeing what I get and then add something at the end of the saying and that makes it funnier.

Tyler Big Lots

January 12th, 2010

We have two locations in Tyler TX for Big Lots, one is off of Beckham and the other towards the mall. I love going to Big Lots because they have everything you could possibly need or want and the prices for the most part are reasonable, especially if you are looking for movies. Big Lots is the place because it’s the cheapest I have ever seen anywhere. They have movies ranging anywhere from $3 to $10 dollars. The new releases are the ones that cost a little more or if you find a series, that usually costs a little more. I once bought the series, Life Goes On, and I paid $4 dollars for it. That is just an example of the things that you can find there.

I also found little Christmas ornaments for a little tree that I have. They have food, clothes, personal needs, bedding, some furniture and many more things. I could not even start to list everything at Big Lots even if I wanted to because they have so many categories of things to buy there. The service for the most part is good. It is a place where if you are looking for a store where you could find some inexpensive gifts for someone, then I would suggest going to Big Lots. It is always a convenient thing to have a Big Lots around. Big Lots is usually surrounding other stores.

The store off of Beckham is next to the General Dollar Store and the Shoe Warehouse. The other one that is close to the mall on the South side is located by Michael’s, Pet Land, Dollar Store, and a Chinese Restaurant. You could definitely take a whole day to experience the bargains available at Big Lots. You would have your shopping, entertaining and food done all in one place.

Brookshires Grocery Store

September 2nd, 2009

Brookshire’s, Tyler, TX(Located on Broadway and Rice just south of the Loop)

10 out of 10 StarsRate Brookshires Grocery

Besides basic Tyler grocery store needs, this Brookshire’s has some attributes that some may not know about.  Some specialty areas which are located on west part of the store include: A Coffee Bar/Shop, a Chinese Restaurant, a Sushi Bar, a Deli Counter, an Olive Bar, and a Salad Bar.  Having these extras available in a neighborhood grocery store is rare and at least one can be utilized by most any customer.  My favorite part of the store is Brookshire’s Sushi Bar. It has an excellent selection of basic sushi trays at a good price. Another advantage of the sushi bar is the convenience for those who are on a limited budget and maybe even limited time if you should be craving sushi.  Since the store is open for 24 hours, the sushi trays are also available for those operating hours. However, one should keep in mind that because the sushi is made during the early part of the day and the actual sushi bar is only open until late evening, the later in the evening, the less chance of finding the variety one might desire.
