Epic Portions

  • We Did It.

    The tyranny and the bullshit had gone on for far too long.  One week ago we assembled and decided that Tios would not receive another accolade that they did not earn.  The people decided it was time to rise up and end this fable of a “world famous wet burrito”.  The people decided that it was time to recognize a brave and saporous establishment for their hard work and determination.  Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the best Mexican restaurant in the area:

    You did it.  You responded to my battle cry in full force.  You’re the best around.  I dedicate this video to all of you that voted and/or posted a battle of your own on Facebook.  Special thanks to the Ypsilanti businesses who also helped support the movement.  You are also the best around.

  • Sangria Summer – Dominic’s

    Even though the weather has been somewhat shitty so far this Summer, that hasn’t stopped us from mixing alcohol and fruit.  The best Sangria in the city can be found at Dominic’s in downtown Ann Arbor. For about 24 bucks, you get a giant jar filled with their Sangria that comes with a fuzzy facedness guarantee.  Word on the street is that the secret ingredient is Maddog 20/20, which is a little disheartening, but the person who told me that is also absolutely out of their mind.  Regardless of if they add the Maddog, the stuff is delicious and Dominic’s will probably give you the best outdoor drinking experience in the city.

    They also have a pretty legit food menu as well.  That’s all I really know.  I’ve only had the jalapeno poppers.  They were pretty good?

  • Hello Faz – Pizza Deal of the Century

    Hello Faz Pizza has a dear place in my heart because I grew up around Faz and his family.  Faz was an incredible guy but I will come back to that at a later date.   When it comes time to order pizza in Ann Arbor, 99% of the time I’m probably going to recommend that we call them up.  Yesterday was one of these times.

    The reason I write this is not to tell you how much I love Hello Faz Pizza.  It’s to give you a heads up on probably the best pizza deal in the entire world.  Forget about five dollar Hot and Sweatys, Dominos’ three for five dollar special or any other pizza coupon you’ve seen.  Hello Faz Pizza took all of those deals and gave them the middle finger.

    Hello Faz will give you a large pizza with unlimited toppings for just nine bucks. That means you can order a large pizza and click every single topping they offer, and you still only have to pay nine bucks for it.  That is incredible.

    Shaya and I tried this out last night to mixed results.  My half contained feta, spinach, chicken, steak, bacon, and garlic. Her half contained sausage, bacon, tomatoes, and broccoli.  As you can see,  I got the better end of the deal and she wasn’t too happy about the amount of toppings on her half.  Special price to anyone who can find an actual piece of broccoli.

    Regardless of the Shaya broccoli debacle, you really can’t argue with a large pizza and ten toppings(or 7 1/2) for only nine bucks.  That’s a solid deal.  When you throw in that the pizza is absolutely delicious as well, that’s.. Well, it’s just a solid deal again.
