My family ordered catering from Froggie Latin Kitchen for Christmas and it was absolutely amazing…read more They had special packages for the holidays so we got the dip package and the jolly package (with steak and al pastor), and everything was a huge hit. We were genuinely talking about the corn tortillas for hours after -- they were that good. There was something for everyone, which made hosting so easy especially considering we had two vegetarians and someone who is gluten and dairy free. Everything reheated perfectly the next day, and we had plenty of delicious leftovers. Highly recommend for holidays or any event, we will definitely be ordering again!

Super disappointed. I found this bakery on Instagram. I loved all of their work that they posted. I…read morewanted to use them for our daughter's first birthday party. I made a Pinterest board of our party inspo that even included dessert inspo for cookies and cake options. The treats are not cheap, which I understand completely. I just expected a neater job and better design based off the work they post and the price of the desserts. The cake pops all fell off the sticks. You took one bite, and they were on the floor. Not ideal for a child's party. The flavors were also very random -- red velvet cake pops with lemon cookies? What we got was not the quality they share on their social media pages. I think there's a reason why they haven't shared the treats they made for our party. Ours looked thrown together and messy. No creativity. I asked for the wands specifically. They didn't even make them in the color I asked for. However, they just posted the same idea in the color I asked for (and executed better) for another party. I do NOT recommend this bakery, sadly.

We were at the Aurora food truck festival, and my mom was craving lemonade…read more I was on the hunt, and we got to the other end of the park before we saw the most adorable food truck ever. We were both instantly intrigued. Thoughtful and cute design details. The more I looked at the business, the closer I was drawn in, and then I saw that they had a lemon creme drink, which the owner described as kinda like Italian ice blended with ice cream, and I was sold on that, but then she added that it was topped with homemade marshmallow fluff and a lemon creme wafer o_o. A team of cuddly porcupines couldn't drag me away from this. Besides the lemon creme ($5), we also ordered frozen hot chocolate ($5), homemade smores marshmallow bites and a moon pie. OMG everything was delicious! The best marshmallows I've ever had. The drinks were incredible, topped with the best marshmallow fluff; marshmallow fluff from the jar, goodbye! And the homemade moon pie was a blessed treat from above that I wistfully shed tears over for leaving us too soon (we intended to slowly eat that moon pie, but I doubt that it lasted over 1 minute in our care). Inventive, creative, high quality. Very friendly owner. Highly recommend!

This Dollar General Store is across the Street from Cedar Lake. They went through an extensive…read moreremodeling the past year. The interior is very clean, well stocked shelves and very decent prices overall. The aisles are still a bit cramped, but passable. Employes are pretty friendly. My one suggestion for them, they need to cut the conversations of friends in line ahead of you, or at least ask them to step aside. I am not a big fan of shopping, period. So when you stand in line and have to listen to a customer compare notes with the employee about guys, really not interested as a customer to hear that. That is the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5. I recommend going here for a quick trip to pick up that item you forgot. Hopefully you will not be delayed by 10 minutes because of boyfriend comparisons.

Do not go here. This is the worst place to play bingo. They sell pull tabs that you have to play…read morewith games but never announce what game you play it with. Some of the volunteers are nice but others are awful. They do not announce what pull tabs they are calling they just start calling random numbers. They get mad when you ask what games they are calling. The caller has no idea what he is doing. Put balls in the wrong holes and they did not want to pay the woman across from me her bingo that was valid. My daughter had a pull tab holder that she left on the table when she went to restroom. ( I was there) one worker came and cleared papers he thought was trash and took our bag. Her tip won, and she asked if she could check the trash bag and they refused to let her. Then the volunteer told her her tip was only worth $10 and she should get over it. Then they decided to give her the $10 and told her she was childish. Yep, this was the first time at this bingo hall and the last. Great way to treat your new comers.

When we walked in no one greeted us so we went to find a seat and then some guy showed us the sign that said please wait to be seated pretty rudely (it was turned around not even open for the public to see) - Luckily we looked at him weird "like who are you" and then a hostess greeted us so we were done with him - which is good. Really hope he wasn't the owner because that's not how you greet someone, especially when there's three tables filled only. Regardless - We opted to sit in the movie room - hence my blue photos. The service was really long, but we got our waters, and a drink each and watched a movie while we waited for our order. Server said the burgers are excellent. I got the double cheeseburger. I promise you, it was the worst meat I'd tasted in a very long time. Why? It was completely over seasoned with salt and pepper - I am talking inedible...Could not finish it. We also got a salad with grilled chicken on it. The dressing was good but didn't have much lettuce on it - just a lot of toppings. Overall - we won't spent our money here again.
