What do you want to see in Reynolds Ranch?
Posted on
November 9, 2010
After a long blogging absense, I'm coming back with one of the
top question floating around the newsroom: What do you want to see
in Reynolds Ranch?
Developer Dale Gillespie has announced that Costco, Home Depot and Best Buy are planning to come to the large
shopping center at Highway 99 and Harney Lane.
Personally, I would love to see a Steak n' Shake or
Imo's, but
since those chains are not on the West Coast, I had to modify my
answer. I'm voting for Trader Joe's or Moe's Southwest Grill.
Here are the answers from the rest of the newsroom:
"Fat Burger. The closest one is at Thunder Valley about an hour
away." — Fernando Gallo, our cops reporter.
"A new huge bookstore like a Borders or Barnes and Noble. I also
would like a El Pollo Loco." — Rich Hanner, our editor.
"Dave and Busters. It has an arcade and booze. What's not to
love?" — Jordan Guinn, business reporter.
"I want a book store that sells movies and magazines and has big
chairs in a cafe where I can sleep at lunchtime. Like good
magazines, not Martha Stewart." — Lauren Nelson, our Lodi Living
Editor.
"One that comes to mind is Whole Foods." — Ross Farrow, our
county reporter.
"My restaurant would be Spaghetti Factory and my store is Bed,
Bath and Beyond." — Pam Bauserman, our Panorama editor.
"A real home good store like a Crate and Barrel or
Williams-Sonoma. I wouldn't buy anything in it, but I would
definitely window shopping." — Jennifer Howell, photographer
"A Borders and a Panda Express." — Dan Evans, chief
photographer.
"I want a new art store that's not all covered in dust." — Marc
Lutz in advertising.
I'm going to be spending some time on the blog over the next
couple weeks to get back into a routine, so make sure you check
back. I'm hoping to start some new weekly features to encourage
myself to post more frequently.

A micro-brew would be fantastic! After hours of wine tasting there is nothing like a cold beer. They could take a cue from Jack Russell Brewery which is smack-dab in the middle of the Apple Hill wine country.

If we're talking far away chains, my ultimate would be a Runza Hut. You can only find those in the midwest.

My first job was a fry guy at Andrea's in Bakersfield, a little drive thru place. They were known for a few things, one was a Big Beef Burrito, 1/2 pound of ground beef and cheese deep fried. Second were their fries, the last is the standard to which I hold Pastrami sandwiches to. Grilled pastrami with the bun dipped in Pastrami juices then toasted with mustard and pickles, I usually add cheese. I never said it was healthy. Never been able to find a Pastrami as good as that here in town.
I agree, there is something about that old home town food you can only get every so often that can make your mouth water.
Speaking of which we just got back from a trip to New Orleans and my wife discovered she loves Gumbo. Guess I have to learn to cook that now.

Kevin, I have never heard of Schlotzsky's, but it sure looks delicious. I am always homesick for so many foods from Missouri. There's something about food you can only have a couple times a year.

Schlotzsky's, Definitly a Schlotzsky's Some of the BEST sandwiches I've ever had. Right now the nearest one is 250 miles away. Fortunately it is in my parents home town so I can get my fix then. Great pizzas, wraps and salads as well. Just looking at their menu makes my mouth water, no other sandwich shop has that affect.
