We know that Tulsa isn’t the city of love, however, there are many locally owned romantic restaurants that are [...]

Tulsa now has a Genghis Grill, right on 15th Street near Utica. Since this is a chain, I’ll just say a few words about the Tulsa location — such as the prices, which are evidently lower than most locations, $11 at lunch for all you can eat. It features Asian-influenced stir fries, made to order. [...]

It has been over a week since the disaster in Haiti. It is clear that numbers showing over 200,000 perished and over tens of thousands lost and unaccounted for, there is one thing very clear…Haiti needs us. We live in such a beautiful country that not only consists of sturdy buildings but compassionate [...]

Several different Sushi restaurants have opened up around Tulsa in the past year and of course there are some that have been around for a while. I am going to try as many of them as I can. This idea started in March 2009, when I went to Tokyo Garden and had my first taste [...]

A few months ago I had lunch at Keo. It’s well worth the trip. The space is sleek and airy, with 15 foot ceilings and floor to ceiling windows. Upscale decor (and good service) with downscale prices. Most entrees are $9. The chef was born in Cambodia (though she grew up in Oklahoma) and most [...]

I never really expect to find a hidden treasure inside of a grocery store, but my perception changed this past week when I got invited to a business meeting in a very unusual place. When I first got the phone call to have a lunch meeting at Reasor’s grocery store in Jenks I thought [...]

Sometimes just eating out for a special occasion isn’t good enough. I know I personally enjoy dinner and a show, or some type of 3-phase night that involves great food and entertainment. At Shogun, for a friends birthday we got our 3-phases all in one place. After a drink at the bar, [...]

KEO is a classic, modern and sophisticated restaurant located on Brookside. In August 2007, Bill and Zahidah Hyman realized that there was a growing trend toward healthy eating and more variety. After noticing that Asian cuisine has became extremely popular, this young couple came up with KEO. The best recipes from Zahidah’s [...]

As we rounded the corner before stepping through the glass door, all I could say was wow. I felt as if I was in New York City walking into a modern, sophisticated restaurant. With deep shades of black, grey, cream, silver and white, this ambient, classic atmosphere stole my breath as soon as [...]

The Korean Garden serves the only authentic Korean food in Tulsa and one of my favorite restaurants of any style. It is a small family owned restaurant, clean and simple with a very good menu.
They serve a variety of bulgogi, soups, bi-bim-bap, roast fish, and stir fry all served with rice and multiple side dishes. [...]

Here comes Tulsa’s very first Panda Express!

Latest visit to New World Buffet…
I have noticed that over the years Chinese buffets in Tulsa have been getting worse. I don’t know if it is objectively related to the lost quality of such buffets or I myself have been getting pickier about food and décor lately. Nevertheless, it has become difficult for me to [...]
