The Egg & I
The Egg & I has been around for several months now, and I just got around to trying it out.  I’d heard good things, but I’m not typically a big go out for breakfast person.  I was up early last Saturday and had some free time so I decided to pop in for some good breakfast. We got a booth and...

Buffalo Wild Wings
Buffalo Wild Wings has many locations other than their new location on Broadway in Tyler, however the Tyler location has something all the others do not…  it’s Tylerite patrons! The food is the same delicious menu you would find in other Buffalo Wild Wings locations, including their...
