It's been a while since the last time I blogged for my fans. I do apologize for my absence last week. I'd like to throw a shout out to all the special olympics participants today out at the Park West Recreation Complex. We were all out there volunteering and having a great time.
Being in the Park West area, today's adventure took place at Just Chill located off the main strip into Park West off of North Hwy 17. Location is pretty good. You do have to know where you are going to get in there. It looked like the majority of their demographic area consisted of stay at home moms that play tennis all day and elderly ladies that do not know how to use 2009 cell phones. You don't have to scream into the microphone for the other person to hear you!! Some people would like to enjoy their lunch on such a beautiful day.
Anyway, on to Just Chill. It was a nice establishment. It looked like it was a mom and pap kind of place when I walked in. It was my 1st time there so I asked the cashier/cook what she recommended. A local sitting at the bar immediately told me to get the philly cheesesteak. So I did. Why not trust a guy that comes everyday supposedly? I ordered my usual water with no side and got away for $7.12. It could have been $6.12, but this was one of those places that gives the receipt with the tip line already on it while the employee stares you down. You know they are saying in their head "You better tip you cheap b#$#a$#!!". Needless to say it was awkward so I tipped $1.00. I felt better about my tip once I noticed that the cashier/cook brought our food outside to us instead of yelling my number into an intercom.
My food is here and it looks great. The bun looks fresh and homemade and had a nice crunch to it which made it even more fresh. I took my first bite and man that guy was right! The philly cheesesteak is a must have at Just Chill in Park West. My only complaint would be to add some more meat to such a bready bun. It had great flavor but needed more of the main ingredient. Steak!! I would even be willing to pay more for more meat instead of the awkward tip line on the receipt. Honestly! Why do I have to tip prior to my meal. My experience could have been terrible. Could you see it? Um, excuse me, can you credit my card back $1.00 because this was terrible and your service is terrible too. That just doesn't happen. I'm just weird I guess.
Today's trip to Just Chill was overall a solid 7.5.
Time: About 10-12 minutes for food to arrive. Standard
Price: $7.12 with tip. I can't talk about it anymore. Gosh it bothers me though.
Experience: Not bad at all. I would like to try something else next time to see if steak was just running low that day.
Atmosphere: Pretty clean. Didn't see any problems except for the fake ketchup at our table. HAHA! Maybe Just Chill can answer that one. Do you guys fill the Heinz bottles with Cisco ketchup? Very sly, but don't think you got that one past Mr. Ish. It's happened to him before. Not his first rodeo!
Facilities: Clean. No problem there. Should be a comfortable lunchdump pending daily tennis matches and cell phone usage in the area.
Highs on Trip: Being back together with the gang. All 4 baby!
Lows on Trip: Lack of meat on my philly cheesesteak.
Advice: Definitely worth a stop in. Highly recommend the philly cheesesteak. Order extra meat though if it's not too pricy. I'd like to see Just Chill include some chips or something if you don't order fries. Just a suggestion.
