All restaurants are struggling to stay in business. Several restaurants have already permanently closed from lack oof business due to the pandemic. Many restaurants have opened their dining rooms with limited seating. Nothing is for certain but take out seems like a safer option with less risk.

Our first take out this week was from Chula Seafood in Phoenix.

I enjoyed the Chula Chopped Salad with added Salmon and my husband got the Tuna Melt with Spam Macaroni Salad and chips. My fur buddies were booth highly interested in the foods but my bigger fur buddy is well behaved and waits till she is served.

Next take out was from newly opened Kabob Grill n Go in Phoenix.

This is a postage sized kabob take out restaurant with around three small tables. Prices are low. Portions are big.

We tried on the left is a chicken tenders kabob. In the middle is the beef (steak) kabob and on the right is the whole Cornish chicken kabob. My dogs were waiting for theirs.

Next take out was from Twist Bistro & Gallery in North Scottsdale. We got the amazing take out special of one appetizer, two dinners and one dessert for $55.00.

We shared muffins with honey butter and then southern fried chicken breaded shawarma kabobs with minted cucumbers, marinated olive and jalapeño preserved lemon basil syrup. For my dinner was that AMAZING loch dart salmon with tomato salad, asparagus, black rice and basil pistou. My husband had the shrimp and sausage diablo. It came with spicy Italian sausage, shrimp, asparagus, olives, tomato confit and three cheese polenta. WOW! all this was really great and then we enjoyed mascarpone cheese cake with pistachio praline, salted caramel, whipped cream and strawberries. Gosh Twist Bistro and Gallery really knocked it out of the park again! I have some fur buddies that are also excited about the food here.

Last take out of the week was from Angelina’s Pho & Grill that is possibly changing their name to Lemongrass Vietnamese Bistro.

Angelina’s is officially one of the best places in metro Phoenix for pho. I’ve been here bunches of times and often do get one of their amazing pho bowls but felt like having something different today.

The dining room had customers when I arrived and I noticed the fresh new paint job.

We did take out and got the yellow chicken curry and the mixed three rice plate.

Both plates were delicious and also were very large portions but we had help with that.

That was week 11 of take out in metro Phoenix. This week we did take out from-

Chula Seafood – PHX

Kabob Grill N Go – PHX

Twist Bistro & Gallery – North Scottsdale

Angelina’s Pho & Grill (Lemongrass Vietnamese Bistro) – Glendale/UpperWestSide

Everything is subject to change and we hope it does for the better
