Eating in Prescott

I’ve been in Prescott for just over a month now and have gone to several of the area restaurants.  There are a lot to choose from, however very few make my “many happy returns” list – mainly due to price, but some are just plain bad.  And there have been a few good surprises too…  So here’s my run down of the local eateries I’ve been to with “star” ratings; 5 = Awesome!  1=Poor (nobody has got 5-stars yet): Cattleman’s Bar & Grill *:  This was the first restaurant I … Continue reading

April Wrap-Up

Well I’m a little late on this one, but here goes.  My most popular pages have changed a little bit.  Of course my Hellgate post is still FAR ahead of any other page for the most popular.  Here’s how my top five ended up: Hellgate Mini-Game and other goodies 99   Enter the Maelstrom of Mining 15   Hellgate London vs. Guild Wars 14   How many MMO’s have you played? 10   Hmmm – that didn’t paste quite right, number five was my “About” page with 9 hits.  A few … Continue reading
