Restaurant Review – Cyrano’s Cafe

Posted: February 20, 2010 at 5:31 pm   /   Local, Restaurant Reviews

When I ate at Cyrano’s Cafe for lunch it was definitely a change from my usually turkey, cheese and crackers.  The menu is full of snazzy dining options, including various dishes with crab, lobster or shrimp.  You would think a visit here may break the bank, but it’s actually quite reasonable, with prices ranging from […]

Posted: January 15, 2010 at 6:06 pm   /   Local, Videogames
