Let’s Cook was a Really Fun Date Night

December 22nd, 2011

I decided to schedule a date night for my wife and I at a new business in town called, “Let’s Cook”.

We had no idea what to expect but ended up having a really fun time. What I liked most about it was the ability to meet new people combined with getting to relate to my wife while cooking food together.

Everyone I know including myself likes going to the movies but you don’t get to communicate with your wife this way. Let’s Cook gives you many chances to laugh and experience many new things together with the one you love.

Unfortunately for many of us guys a romantic gesture that will please the wife doesn’t always come easy. I am one of these guys but I do get it right sometimes. Don’t fall for those diamond ring radio commercials for your last minute Christmas gift idea but go by Let’s Cook and schedule a date with your wife for their next date night class.

You will learn to cook some delicious recipes and will be surprised how easy it is. They will have some prepared food before the lesson you can eat but don’t eat too much as you will make plenty of food together to fill you up for the night. On our night we made several courses including dessert.

In summary, I was most surprised by the passion and charm added by the Italian chef for that night. His name is Al Ippolito and he is a chef, college professor, business owner, and has an extensive career resume. If you have Al as your chef you will not just learn how to cook but will get a great education on Italian culture and life coming from the son of two Italian immigrants from New York City.

Joes Italian Grill

January 8th, 2010

Tyler has so many options for a great Italian dine in experience. One of my favorite places to eat is a little Italian Restaurant known as Joe’s Italian Grill. Joe’s is a quant little restaurant with walls stained with the smell of garlic and pesto that brings a true Italian culture to East Texas. Joe’s great pasta masterpieces cooked with his rich signature sauce will leave your stomachs and your wallets full. Joe has a great variety that is not found anywhere else.

Joe’s Italian Grill offers a quiet, romantic atmosphere and each of the tables has individual curtains to maintain the privacy of your dinner party. It is a great place to have a great date and a delightful peaceful meal. Not only is the food great but the prices are unbeatable. Lunch menus start at $6. And the rest of the menu is prices between six to fourteen dollars. Have a glass of wine of your choice with your meal.

Not sure what will go with your meal? Just ask your waiter and they will give you their suggestions. They have all different wines, both white and red. If you just want to enjoy a drink feel welcomed at their small bar. At this locally family owned restaurant the waiters and waitresses are very attentive and professional, expect great service. The small italian restaurant on a small shopping center, is a great place to enjoy the Italian culture here in Tyler. So come on in and let your taste buds travel around the world.
