At Seasons 52...It's All About You!

Seasons 52 in Raleigh, NC

The Hotness and Sweetly were invited to a birthday celebration and were taken aback by the deliciousness of every single dish and the excellent customer service.  We're FOODIES who enjoy great food!  In a first, The Hotness wished to nominate Seasons 52 for The Hotness Hottie Best Food Award but Sweetly had to inform her...no such award exists.  A girl can dream can't she?  We loved this place and can't wait to go back again and again!

Metro Diner...Comfort Food with All the Flavor

Metro Diner in Raleigh, NC

Dish:  Fried Chicken Plate

Critique:  Rumor has it that Metro Diner fried chicken was voted the best FRIED CHICKEN by several magazines, so you know The Hotness and Sweetly had to find out if this rumor was true.  After all, we are the true fried chicken connoisseurs…we had KFC, Church’s, Popeyes, Bojangles, Lowe’s Fried Chicken, etc. we had them all!  So our expectations were rather high before we took the first bite of the piping hot drumstick.  The Hotness took the first bite because she likes things rather hot and Sweetly soon followed suit to confirm the rumor.  Metro Diner’s fried chicken deserves all the votes for the Best Fried Chicken! Seasoned to the bone and crispy! Go get some Metro Diner yard bird now! Oh the biscuit was slammin’ too.
Score: 4 Out of 4 Hotties!

Dish:  Avocado Toast

Critique:  Sweetly just loves avocados, if she could eat a bucket of them she would.  However, The Hotness is not about the avocado life.  Nonetheless, Sweetly vowed that this was the best avocado toast she had.  She wanted to give it 5 Hotties due to the freshness of the fresh chopped avocados and tomatoes.  If you’re about that avocado life, this toast is for you!
Score: 4 Out of 4 Hotties!






Dish:  Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissant

Critique:  Buttery Bread, Bacon, Eggs, and Cheddar Cheese.  It’s a tried and true combination that doesn’t disappoint the savage hungry beast raging inside.  One of the greatest breakfast sandwiches done right!
Score: 4 Out of 4 Hotties!








Dish:  Croissant French Toast

Critique:  Classic dish…four pieces of a light, buttery croissant, battered and grilled to perfection!  Not surprisingly, Sweetly ate the entire dish all by herself.  There’s no shame in her game, powdered sugar was all over her face.
Score: 4 Out of 4 Hotties!






Dish:  Chicken Tender Salad

Critique:  Hey Now!! Crispy chicken tenders served over mixed greens, shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese, bacon, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and croutons.  “In my belly!!” is what The Hotness kept shouting at her dish.  Apparently, the salad listened to her and within five minutes her plate was empty of every piece of lettuce.
Score: 4 Out of 4 Hotties!
