CiCi's Pizza Cumming (Exit 13)

I have to be specific because your experience may differ if you go to another location. The newly opened CiCi's Pizza on Ronald Reagan Blvd. in Cumming has scored big points with us. If you have been in the area for a while, you may recognize the management staff that previously worked at the Exit 14 CiCi's Pizza. They have successfully opened their new restaurant this month just around the corner from The Avenue at Forsyth in a new shopping center that is apparently doing everything to appeal to families. I only mention that because the other businesses that are occupying that shopping center are very "children accommodating". The spot right next to them just opened today called Razzberrie Dreamz which is a children's party boutique featuring fun themed birthday parties.

Okay, back to CiCi's Pizza.... when I heard they were open we stopped by to support them and their new restaurant. Now that they have an all new store, they are more than ready to cater to your every desire. If you are not familiar with CiCi's Pizza, it is an all you can eat pizza, pasta and salad buffet. Adults price is $5.49 (I think). It's an overall great value. Not only can you eat from the buffet, but you can also special order anything you want that is not already on the pizza buffet. For instance today we special ordered the "flip" with some additional toppings inside and I also ordered a pizza special made that wasn't already on the bar. They bring special orders fresh out of the over to your table. We have already gone back a total of 3 times this month.

The Foster House

Last week we had the pleasure to enjoy lunch at The Foster House in downtown Cumming, GA. I can't say that we went for too much variety. Turns out we both ordered the Blue Cheese Burger. For my husband it was the first time he ever had one, but I can tell you if there is a blue cheese burger on the menu, that is what I will order. I opted for the famous Sweet Potato Chips as my side. He chose the squash casserole that was on the daily menu. Lunch was great and the atmosphere was fabulous. We were very happy. We also got to meet owner Amanda Davis. She was great. She gave us a bit of a tour since I will be returning soon to deejay and emcee a wedding reception there soon. I am very much looking forward to that. They also do catering and are open for special events and weddings. They serve breakfast and lunch.
