Expect red carpet service at our first top performer. The Red Carpet Restaurant at 1220 Main Street is now a two-time top performer.
Chef Carlos Rangel started cooking in the back of his grandfather's restaurant when he was 4-years-old, and he later went to the same culinary school as the famed Chef Emeril Lagasse.
He says don't worry about the menu at the Red Carpet Restaurant, the main dish changes every day, "Without the same menu it's easier for us to keep fresh products rolling in all the time instead of having it here for days and days and days."
Carlos says customers at the Red Carpet should expect more than just a delicious meal, "We run around. We sing real loud. We have fireballs all the time - a big giant fire show during lunch. The different kinds of food they get to taste here is not your everyday stuff. There's something new every single day so there is absolutely nothing on the menu to get tired of because the menu, it's never the same, ever."
If you're wondering what's being served each day, just stop by - the menu is written on a chalkboard outside the restaurant. And if you can't make it for lunch, they feature a different themed dinner every Saturday night.
And it's a repeat performance for Murphy's Pub at 3502 Slide Road as well.
And we top of this Food for Thought with dessert.
"It's Italian ice cream," says ice cream maker Ashley Prothro.
Caffe Gelato at 5903 82nd street is a three-time top performer.
"It's made with ingredients imported from Italy, so it's the closest thing to Italian."
