I had a regular lemonade which was really good. They played 90s ebb at just the right volume. They had a lot of mixed drink options: alcohol-infused gummy bears and colorful slushy drinks. The food menu was pretty decent. I had collard greens with smoked turkey and rice. It was steak night. most of their menu leans heavily toward gumbo, rice, and other Southern dishes. What's funny is , I've seen this place on DoorDash before but never thought to order. Turns out you can actually get food and cocktails delivered. That's a huge plus in my book. All in all, I like this place. It's very casual, good vibes, and a rnb playlist that is decent!

Sometimes they tell me when I am picking up that a meal was out of stock. Then I can choose to pick out a substitute or just leave it off my order. Some meals are better than the others but they all are good quality! Averages out to $10-13 per meal which is priced better than eating out for lunch everyday.

I followed the directions with the temperature set to 350 degrees, and cooked for 40 minutes. I actually left it in for 50 minutes, and then let it cool off.

Later that night I went to cut a slice for dinner and noticed it was raw throughout. *Stay away from the meatloaf. :/

I love Indian food, but I have no idea how to make it myself. I tried rotizen for the first time a…read morefew weeks ago on the recommendation of a friend (Thanks Samantha L!). After seeing that one of the standard options had cottage cheese, I emailed the company to see if a vegan box was available. Within a few minutes, I heard back that it would be no problem. Yay, just what I like to hear!! Basically, you get a huge box of vacuum sealed Indian food packages with freezer packs to your door. You don't need to be home when it's delivered---just put it all in your freezer before you go to bed that day. (The packages are relatively compact--you won't need to clear out your entire freezer like you would with freshly). My first meal with red kidney beans was great. I followed the directions to a T (1.5 minutes in the microwave for the entree and gravy and 1 minute for the rice) and it was steaming hot. It tasted exactly like Indian food I've had at restaurants and friends' houses. I would fully recommend it! As compared to other services, I found the portions incredibly affordable. I don't know how to make Indian food on my own, so I've traditionally ordered vegan Indian food for $3/a can. I've also ordered takeout for ~$10-15 per person. This comes out much closer to $7-8, especially if you are not an especially voracious eater. Cons: One of the disadvantages is that the directions included with the package can be a bit confusing if you are not super familiar with Indian dishes. I didn't know exactly what the "gravy" was from the "entree" I sent this in the feedback form that rotizen emailed me, so I hope this will be included in future boxes.

On the way to a long weekend in New Braunfels, we decided to stop in Luling for lunch as I had…read moreheard about this really good BBQ joint even before I moved to Texas. Walking in to Luling City Market in this tiny old town was almost like walking back in time for us. This no frills little café type of restaurant where you actually walk into the smoke room to order you meat. The smell was overwhelming but in a very good way. Gave us chills as we inhaled the wonderful smell of slow smoking meat and we ordered some brisket and pork ribs to split. We our meat on our platters, we went outside the smoke room to pick up some drinks and sides of coleslaw and potato salad. This was some of most heavenly BBQ we have had in a long time. Moist with lots of flavor and well worth the very reasonable price. The sides were nothing to pass up as well. Really tasty! Luling City Market was definitely worth the stop for lunch and next time we are going up that way, we are definitely stopping for another delicious lunch.

I mean my pocket book is probably better for it because I want to buy the whole store but honestly I've been missing out. The place is cute and welcoming from the corner sign on the building to the moment you step in- bright, inviting, great displays so you know where to go. You can't get lost in here with the signage, but you can't definitely get lost in the aisles with all the great, unique choices. The ready food display has so many Mediterranean treats, some I've had before some I've never heard of and everything I tried was amazing. We got the cabbage rolls and Armenian veggie dolmas. Great flavor, both specific items I haven't had before. Nice citrus, spiced flavor to these. I'd say they're have to try items. Not only found jarred tomato paste, which I've been on the hunt for but they had choices in this category and that's another first for me. Will have to go back and try the others. Also got the cured Serrano ham -amazing. And I thought the prices were going to be insane having a spot right in the middle of the city and nope- pleasantly surprised for my goodies, great prices even less than some of the other stores I frequent in the suburbs. I'll be back again and again and again until I try the whole store lol. Definitely give them a try, you won't regret it

I love the fact that the menu changes and they don't try to offer everything everyday. The meal felt homemade - not overly oily or salty. I am a new mother who recently went back to work full time and I will be definitely keeping RAD meals on the short list for weekly meals.
