The store is kind of small, and there's not a whole lot to choose from. They have new and used books, all separated into their various sections. But the whole wall of romance novels kind of ruined it for me. In fact there were so many romance novels they had to separate them into sections (historical and modern). N...

This little take away counter is overlooked and some people might not even know it exist, but I can't even walk into this Harris Teeter without some hot red curry coming home with me. It's also really reasonable. There are a few tables if you want to sit inside of the HT.

Precooked noodles in Ragu like sauce. I got the Thai food (Phod Thai). Don't do it! There was a sprinkling of vegetables and not much else. I asked for extra lime and onion and they gave me a tiny end of a lemon (not a lime) and no extra onions.

Just a heads up, this rating is only for cravings past 2am, usually when drunk and/or completely starved, this place is a hole while the sunlight is up. Now having said that, 2 tacos for 99 cents and super scrumptious milkshakes, not sure what else you could ask for!!

To take a step away from the more authentic Mexican places we've been eating lately, we decided to try out Salsa's, which is more towards the Americanized style of Mexican food. That doesn't make it bad - just different, so if you're wanting authentic, you may want to go elsewhere.\n\nInside of this Salsa's, the decor...
