Tumalo Feed Company

If you have a big hunger and are in the Bend, Oregon area, be sure and check out the "Tumalo Feed Company". This restaurant has been around for a long time - although under different owners for several years - and has a well-deserves reputation for top quality food and lots of it!! In fact, they have been voted "Best Steak House in Central Oregon" 7 times!!!!

Although they are best known for their steaks, they also offer a wide array of dishes from chicken to fish, and the service is outstanding. The potatoes are brought to your table in sizzling cast iron skillets which just adds to the western theme of the restaurant. One thing that makes the "Tumalo Feed Company" unique is the "never ending" homemade onion rings they bring to your table as soon as you sit down.

Their homemade raspberry vinegrette is outstanding!! We never go there without ordering this on our salads. Desert comes with your dinner and they offer a variety of choices.

If you are hungry, looking for a unique place to eat with excellent food, stop by the "Tumalo Feed Company" to enjoy the western atmosphere and have a wonderful dinner with your family or friends.

The "Tumalo Feed Company" is located at 64619 Hwy 20 Bend, Oregon.

King and I Thai Cuisine - Kennewick, WA

A couple of weeks ago, we had to drive up to Kennewick, Washington and stumbled upon a wonderful Thai Restaurant while looking for a place to eat lunch.

The "King and I Thai Cuisine" located in Kennewick, Washington, has an amazing menu filled with a large variety of Thai dishes. If you arrive between 11:30 - 2:00, Monday through Friday, be sure and take advantage of their outstanding lunch buffet which at the time of our visit was only $8.99! The buffet has several types of soup, curries, tossed green salad (with an exquisite homemade dressing), 6 or 7 types of main dishes, and of course rice. They also offer a wine bar daily from 5:00pm to closing and offer a wonderful variety of quality wines.

The servers are very attentive - your water glass is never empty. The owner of the restaurant often chats with patrons and even pitches in to refill water and the contents of the buffet.

If you are hungry and enjoy top-quality Thai food, make a point of stopping by "King and I Thai Cuisine" located at 6030 Clearwater Avenue, Kennewick, WA.
