September 5: Cheese Pizza Day
New Jersey Pizza Company (2224 East Cedar Ave.), despite the incredibly long wait that seems to
come with ordering from them, has the most delectable cheese pizza with
house-made, hand pulled mozzarella. I often ignore the wait because it is just
so mouthwatering! For a different take on this classic – try Pizza
Furiosa’s (2500 S Woodlands Village Blvd)
cheese pizza which includes mozzarella, asiago and parmesean cheeses. Delish
and different!
September 10: TV Dinner Day
Who says a TV dinner needs to be frozen and subpar? Not me!
Make it much better with a delivery from Hot Wok Express. (1000 N Humphreys St -928-226-1007). The Chicken
Lo Mein, Orange Chicken, Moo Goo Gai Pan and Broccoli Beef are can’t fail
options. Order up and plop down on the couch with some college games on the
tube – and you’re good to go!
September 13: National Peanut Day
Thai peanut sauce lovers go crazy… celebrate national peanut
day with your favorite peanutty dish. My choice – Chicken Pad Thai level three
with a side salad at lunch at Dara Thai (14 S San Francisco) for just $6.95.
Hard to beat all around!
September 15: National Linguine Day
Go for Cottage Place’s
(126 W. Cottage) “Twilight Menu” for some ultimate linguini. They’re serving up
a smoked salmon linguini and a beef stroganoff over linguini –on this special
menu, served between 5pm and 6pm.
September 16: National Guacamole Day
Who says you have to go Mexican for delish guacamole. I love
Oregano’s (605 W Riordan Rd) Guaca
Tony. It’s an Italian take on this classic mushy green dish made with basil,
roasted garlic and avocado. It’s served in a heaping mound on their pizza crust
'chips.' It’s a meal or an app and it’s G-O-O-D!
September 18: National Cheeseburger Day
No question I my mind – make the trip to Diablo Burger (120 N Leroux), the joint that made me a true lover
of burgers. Order up a Marilyn (aka cheeseburger) with one of the many cheeses
on hand – from Pepper Jack to Swiss.
September 28: Drink Beer Day
Only one day dedicated to beer (what a shame) and it’s on a
Wednesday. But go on a pub crawl anyway (with a designated driver in tow, of
course) from the Flagstaff Brewing Co. (16
E. Rte. 66) to Beaver Street Brewery (11 S Beaver St) and on over to The Lumberyard (5 S San Francisco). All make delish house-crafted
brewskis to enjoy all day long.
