My Big Fat Greek Sandwich in Tyler TX

April 13th, 2012

What about Kabob and His Gyros
The gyro sandwich is something I keep wanting to call a /ji-row/ but yet it is pronounced /hero/ and no matter how many times I hear it pronounced the right way I think of gyroscopes and how awesome they are.

You need to go to Hobby Town for the gyroscope but my recomendation today is to go by What About Kabob’s and His Gyro’s and get my favorite sandwich, the Philly Cheese Steak Gyro.

The sandwich is downright good! It just is, enough said! Take my word on this, ok! Now on to the fries…

I love not only the sandwich but the fries…they have a seasoning that is just right and not too salty. There is enough seasoning on them that I refrain from ketchup but that is fine because they are nice and tasty.

If I can give you a comparison regarding the fries I would say that if you go over to that burger restaurant Mooyah you may have noticed that the Mooyah fries are extremely salty and so much so that you may have eaten like two before throwing the rest away.

At Kabob’s the fries have a seasoning that actually makes sense because they put that on those fries because it makes them taste good. You would think all restaurants would follow this formula but yet they don’t.

I know at Kabob’s I will get a good sandwhich and good fries and I can write on the walls with a marker whenever I want. I often read quotes and things written by various friends and aquantances in Tyler on their wall.

Why just the other day I read some graffiti on the big yellow wall by the South Campus First Baptist Church pastor Chris Legg.

 

Clair’s in the Mall

September 13th, 2010

Claire’s has been in the Broadway Square Mall for a long time. When you raise two extremely girlie girls that love dressing up, Claire’s is a frequent stop while shopping at the mall. My girls’ faces light up when they see the corner of fairy and princess accessories.

I can get all my kids’ dress up needs here at Claire’s. The walls are lined with tutus, princess crown, colorful jewelry, hair bows, and fairy wings. With Halloween just around the corner you can dress you kids up with the fun, colorful accessories.

Claire’s does not only have stuff for toddler girls, but for women of all ages. They have the newest styles and accessories. Claire’s has had sales pretty much every time I have gone into the store. Many times they have earrings for “buy one get one half off”. The store has all different style of necklaces, earrings, rings, and bracelets. You can get all different jewelry for a great price. Some of my favorite things in the store are the selections of bags, scarves, and hair accessories. They have all accessories to top off all of your outfits for every season of the year.

When I was really young I got my ears pierced at Claire’s, and I recently took my daughter to get her ears pierced there too. They pretty much do the same thing that they did when I got mine done. They sat her in a car and let her hug a teddy bear. A lady marked her ears with a purple marker just to make sure that they keep the earrings even with each other. I sat her on my lap just to make sure she did not jerk and to make sure that the lady did not miss the mark that she made. After the lady pierced my daughter’s ear, my daughter started crying, but the lady was fast at getting the second ear pierced even though she had to “re-load”. As the lady was doing the second ear, my daughter jerked, but the lady still pierced it on the right spot. After it was done my daughter was still crying so the lady helped calm her down by showing her how beautiful her ears were and by giving her a lollipop. Candy always helps kids be happy. The only thing that I had to pay for to get her ears pierced was the actual earrings. The piercing was free and it came with a solution that you have to clean the ear with three times a day.

Claire’s is a great place to shop for all your make up, and jewelry needs for a low cost. And it is a great place to shop for all little girls love for finger nail polish, princesses, jewelry, and dress up.
