I'm attending my first-ever homecoming dance, and when I told my sister this, she immediately got so excited that she dragged me out without me even having enough time to brush my hair or change out of my baggy t-shirt and jeans. The first place we decided to go to was the Purple Parasol, because it's one of the most-known dress stores in the Tri-Cities. I'd been nervous at first, because I had a specific idea of what dress I wanted, and a specific color--not to mention, I'm a very large plus-size girl.
We went in and there were so many choices of dresses, but I doubted that any of them would be my size, so we were just going to look for the proper type. My sister grabbed a dress that she liked and forced me to dress up in it, but I refused to take off my t-shirt and jeans. (I'm rather modest, I guess.) I really, really disliked the dress and while I was in the changing booth, a saleswoman came over and started talking to us.
She politely asked what we were looking for, and within minutes, had selected an absolutely gorgeous dress in an Olive Green unlike I had ever seen. I tried it on, and was AMAZED to find that it fit PERFECTLY. The lady was super nice and convinced me to take off my jeans and t-shirt so that we could see the dress properly, and when I complained about the top being sleeveless, she and another saleswoman talked to me about adding a shawl, with a ruffled kind of sleeve--it was absolutely amazing!!
I loved the dress, loved the alterations--such creativity and talent! They were so nice to me, and I bought the dress immediately, first stop, second try-on. It was a bit expensive, but I guess I can't really put a price on my first dance ever! (And I'll probably wear it to Prom too!)
Not only that, but they keep a list of the dressed they sale and to who, so that the chances of you having the same dress as another girl in your school is practically

I have experienced the Hubby's habit for 20 years now. Having travelled the nation and some of the world, this is above and beyond, unequivocably, the best pizza I have ever eaten. LOVE IT! Thin crust, unbelievable sauce, toppings to the edge... Every time I try a pizza that isn't Hubby's, I end up wishing I hadn't. And being a local business, all the more reason to support. It's been around for 30 years now and is still going strong. They have a fabulous playground for the kiddies, windows where you can watch the creation of your meal, a few video games... It is just a great atmosphere. Make sure you make reservations in advance for a party, otherwise you might not get a table! If you visit during the lunch hours, it is quite likely that the owner will come to your table and make sure everything is alright. They also serve sandwiches and have a decent salad bar. It is a no frills hometown pizzaria where you can hang out with friends and family or just go in to eat by yourself. It's a staple food!!!
Pros: Fabulous pizza, great for kids and adults, nice playground, great atmosphere, local business
Cons: Parking on weekend evenings

Double Dragon is my favorite chinese food restaraunt in the tri cities. The food is tasty, the amounts are huge, I always end up with a box of leftovers, the prices are quite reasonable, and the service is very friendly. This is the place to go if you are hungry for some chinese food.

Inca is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Tri-Cities. As another reviewer stated the Carne Asada is to die for. Yummy! Chicken en Mole is another great dish. On Friday nights they have a gentleman playing a guitar and serenading you as you enjoy your meal. The make a great margarita! This is the one retaurant that my entire family agree's on. I think the salsa is really good, not too hot.
Pros: Great food, good service, super drink selection

I grew up with Zip's. They have the best burgers, fries and onion rings and oh yeah don't forget to ask for plenty of their Zip's sauce to dip them in. Been around for ages--nothings changed except the menu has gotten bigger.
