Oh those were on the top of my list too! Good luck and thanks for entering.
I'd love to try Mama Testa Taqueria and Amarin Thai Cuisine for their fresh, authentic flavors. Fig Tree Cafe looks praising for a memorable Happy Hour and for dessert: Babycakes! @lala_henao
Every time I walk by “The Range”, it looks so hip! I've always wanted to try it, but I'm usually making a beeline for Daddy's Dogs!
I would really like to try Ethiopian food at Bayu’s Authentic Ethiopian Cuisine. I've had just about every other kind of cuisine, so this would help top my list as would a pair of tickets to Taste of Hillcrest if I would be so lucky to win. Thanks! -christine

I'm looking forward to finally trying The Range and also seeing what Tractor Room has. I just started following you on Twitter: @ducli7
I'm interested to see what Celadon is like; I've heard it's good, but haven't been yet for some reason. I'm also really curious about Brazen BBQ. (I'll email you my email directly
)
Am looking forward to the French Bistro, and am curious what Amarin Thai's offerings are this year.
