What woman doesn't LOVE to shop?!. This one, I say, with my arm waving in the air. If I can't get it online and delivered, it's not my thing. (Ebay, anyone?)
So, are you shocked then, that after living here 13 years, I not only have never BEEN to the Fashion Valley Mall, I've never even SEEN it!(?) (definitely NOT a Mall Girl..)

However, I had heard about the famous Cheesecake Factory, and after trying once on the weekend (no dice), we opted to go for an early weeknight dinner since we were going to be in the area anyway.

Granted, I didn't have the cheesecake (can live without sweets the rest of my life - Yuck! Gimme FOOD.) But, I have to say the food was 'eh'. Could get better elsewhere, for less, and WITHOUT the wait, thank you. Other than the company, and SD's divine weather that evening, I'll pass on an encore visit.

Now..Sushi..
A fun find was Yummy Sushi. Great place to go when you have people to go with - especially if you're all slap-happy anyway between a hellish work-week and the beginning of Weekend Party Mode! Combine that with at least 6 Sushi chefs who are giddy with the spotlight and before you know it, knives and food are being thrown in the air! And a nice selection..
(just wish they'd improve their website: www.yummysushisd.com)

OK..that's my commentary..no hot waitresses to report on this time..(How many of you went to the Russian place to check 'em out and dine? LOL)

Well, I have every intention of going to the Russian restaurant, and give every opportunity to one of the beautiful waitresses there to play!  And, of course I will report back here!

I agrees about the food at the Cheescake Factory although the place is always packed. I think that it's all about getting your sweet tooth on. One more time, thanks Sedona

- these are Civi girls, just waitresses who happen to be really pretty.
The REAL recommendation was for the food.

Beautiful Sedona,

What have I done that you feel I am a barbarian???  I am the reincarnation of Cary Grant himself!

Get over here and let me hear that VOICE! Those glasses!
