Default Bamboo Bistro and Sweet Tomatoes

Just noticed the Gourmet Club Website shows the Bamboo Bistro (page 1) is now open and has a review already and also shows where Sweet Tomatoes (page 2) is going to be built. Very interesting. This club is always on top of things.

Sweet Tomatoes is a very large salad bar with soup, pizza, baked bread, etc.

Should do well in TV.

Default Bamboo Bistro - Two thumbs up

My husband and I have eaten at Bamboo Bistro twice, and we've been very pleased both times. The selection is very nice (assuming you like Japanese and Chinese food! ) and the food is tasty and very "fresh" for lack of a better term. The prices seem very reasonable for the portion size and quality. For instance, my husband had the "Chow Fun Beef" for $10, which was excellent, and we split the leftovers the following night. They serve beer and wine, and have a nice selection of sake. This could become one of our favorites.

That's Snappy Tomato in La Plaza Grande between Winn Dixie & Publix.

I guess Sweet Tomato will be out in front of Best Buy

That's a shame we can't get to Sweet Tomato by cart. It will cost them some business.

Below is the website for the Sweet Tomatoes we used to go to in Fremont, CA.

Haven't been there for a couple years but remember the cost being more like $7.95 less 10% discount. Usually 2/3 filled with patrons - no waiting but steady flow of customers. Went to it for maybe 15 years, every other month or so.

We also just ate at Bamboo Bistro for the first time a!nd we loved it too! Price reasonable, quantity served was awesome. Will definitely go there again. We also took home enough for dinner the next night.
