NAKED FISH. Japanese. Sushi. Fab. Great Prices. Casual.
Used to be the Taco Bell on the SW corner of Ashlan/1st

Baby makin food.

LILIS CAFE- by the crest theatre downtown across the street from the parking lot for the fulton mall thingy
dont ask me the cross streets. When I drive around downtown I just keep going till I find stuff.

MAYS CAFE- first Clinton

Just go there. Get the damn spring rolls.

End.

Mixed babies make the world smile

Why are there two Sports Authority stores right across the street from each other? Why can't one be located elsewhere?

A Trader Joes in the tower district would be nice.
2nd choice would be Hunan. Luby's too but I know they won't move.

Still north to me...or more north than I feel like going most days.

But yeah, putting everything out on Champlain & Perrin serves most of Fresno just fine.

I'm just of the illusion that us folk south of Herndon still matter at least a little bit in the grand scheme.

For such a great restaurant, they have a horrible location. Clearly the best Chinese food that Fresno has to offer.

I also agree with the Dollar Tree in the Tower, that should be a Trader Joes.

Not a big fan of Sequoia, too many old farts who like Bachman Turner Overdrive. They should turn that place into a bier-haus.

Babylon --- Who goes there?

a huge new part of Fresno was built that extended the town several miles to the North and East...

(...the truth IS out there,
-I hear NASA has declined the offer to send out a rover... they felt that bicycling to the site would be more informative and helpful for us...
-btw? they want a report by Wednesday, chop-chop chief...)

...is Blackstone & Bullard NOT North Fresno?

LUBYS!!!

Oh do I ever love this store, but it really lost its urban appeal sitting in the middle of a sprawling parking lot. Even though its facade is just wonderful and the new part of Fashion Fair looks nice (minus the lack of underground parking).

I also think I might give the Dirty Olive a chance if it also wasn't sitting in the middle of a suburban shopping center. Call me ridiculous, but why would you put a bar in the middle of a place where you can only access by car? I think it would do much better in the Tower, on Olive. Within walking distance of many residences.

While it hasn't moved in yet, Rasputin Records should either sell out and move to north Fresno, or fit nicely into the tower district/downtown.

god that thing is ugly. yes, uglier than the vacant shell that sat for years before DT moved in. at least the shell didn't radiate that sickly green light for blocks and blocks.

I second the motion from BandHdad. My brother has traveled frequently in China for about 15 years, and he's told me that Hunan is the best Schezwan and Hunanese food he's ever had in North America, and that counts LA, SF, NY, Chicago and the like. The folks who own and operate are incredibly accommodating; they'll make anything you want any way you like, and make it well. Not pricey, either. But the location just stinks.

J & C House of Records!

Close second: Chicken Man.

Full Circle is a good one, but I go there a lot -- so I guess that doesn't count. I wish I went to J & C more.

Bangkok is at the corner of Ashlan and Blackstone, next door to the 7-11. Tiny parking lot that's a nightmare to maneuver a car any bigger than a Mini Cooper....inconvenient as all hell to get to.

Still...i'd eat there every day if i had the $$$

Hunan Restaurant tucked in between SaveMart and Longs on the Southeast corner of Cedar and Herndon has the best AUTHENTIC schewan and Hunan style food ANYWHERE around Fresno. It's way back in the breezeway, and nobody can see it. The owners say the landlord won't let them put a sign out front... might blight McDonald's (yuck!) or BJ's Kitchen's business!!! Give it a try, ask for the Hunan menu...

I really feel the proper location of this wonderful established restaurant would fit great between Dai Bai dang and Fuzio's in front of the Edward's Movie Theater.

Chicken Man would do so much better if it weren't hidden in that weird Marks/Clinton/Weber bermuda triangle.
