Queen's Restaurant - Queen Wilhelmina Lodge State Park, Arkansas

We went to Queen Wilhelmina State Park over the thankgiving weekend and ended up having a few meals from the restaurant in the lodge. The nice part is that they have buffets for all three meals as well as the option of ordering a-la carte. The breakfast buffet spread is pretty standard with offerings of fruit, cereal, milk, coffee, orange and apple juice, yogurt, bread, butter, jam, hash browns, sausage, bacon and eggs. My husband tried out the omelets and he liked it. We had dinner there and the buffet had options of lots of desserts, salads and some kind of beef and pork. Not so much for someone not too fond of American food. The salads and dessert was very good!

All in all, i found it better than Petit Jean but it probably is because i am more used to American food now than i was then.

They are located at:

3877 Highway 88 West

Coal-Fired Pizza!!!

Coal-Fired Pizza My kids love Pizza. My wife and I, on the other hand, have left our love for Pizza behind. But, with the kids in tow, I started researching how to make a decent pizza from scratch. YouTube is filled with recommendations, so I had to make some choices for my very first Pizza. If you're looking for a quick-cooking Pizza, this isn't the recipe for you. This will take around 2 days, including fermentation and some work. As usual, Kamado Grill Classic is again my go-to cooking platform. References: John Setzler's ' Kamodo Joe Pizza '. John Kenall's ' Easy Pizza Dough Recipe '. Vito Lacopelli's ' How to Make Perfect Pizza Dough at Home' and ' freeze the Pizza for later '. Goals: Everyone has so many variations for making Pizza dough. I never realized the debate of Biga vs Poolish dough making. Before we get into all the details, I set some goals. Type : I wasn't going for Neapolitan-style, very high-heat Pizza. The t...

Smoked " Tandoori" Chicken It has been five years since we purchased the Kamado Joe Classic Joe Series II 18-inch Ceramic Charcoal Grill and Smoker with Cart . And it has been an excruciatingly long time since I last blogged. So, here we go with a delicious solution as I am cooking. Tandoori chicken on Kamodo Joe.

Manchu Wok, Stonebriar mall, Frisco, TX

I made the mistake of ordering from Manchu Wok. I ordered chicken egg rolls, kung pao chicken, fried rice and jalapeno chicken. The egg roll was raw and the chicken pieces were too big. I wasnt happy with the food and had to buy an ice cream to wash the taste away. Comparatively, Panda Express has never disappointed.
