Mi Pueblo opened up recently in the former East Appleton strip mall slot occupied by Los Compadres, between Gordman's and Walmart. Run by the same owner as Ashwaubenon's Los Magueyes restaurant, the newly-christened eatery offers a menu and price structure very similar to nearby Kimberly competitor El Azteca.

I dropped by over the lunch hour to try the $5.99 fajitas advertised in their window. The restaurant, having just opened, was not very busy but with recent publicity in the Post-Crescent and a prime location next to the heavily-shopped Walmart, traffic is bound to increase in the coming weeks.

When you're looking for a tight menu of mouthwatering, gourmet subs at reasonable prices, you can do worse than Jimmy John's. The ever-expanding franchise of sub shops has had locations come and go in the Fox Cities over the past few years, most in weirdly inconvenient locations. The new branch at the corner of Richmond and Northland in Appleton is no exception.

Gyros are one of my guilty pleasures, especially when they're done right. Unlike many places that serve "gyros" with thinly-sliced, pre-packaged meat, the gyros at The Greek Kafe aren't just big and tasty, they're sliced to order off a rotisserie. For lovers of Mediterranean cuisine, The Greek Kafe serves a menu of familiar favorites.

According to their website, Beefeaters is a "British themed restaurant serving up classic pub dishes, with our own twist, as well as American favorites." Brought to the Valley by the same family that runs Good Company and Pullman's, Beefeaters is an eclectically-themed restaurant serving up fantastic food with plenty of British flair.
