Free Orange Chicken At Panda Express This Friday

panda_express_orange_chix.jpg
I think we can all agree that the best thing at Panda Express is the Orange Chicken. Oh how those morsels of sugary-crunchy poultry pieces shine under the lights. I think Jennifer 8. Lee, the writer behind the brilliant Fortune Cookie Chronicles, hit it right on the nose when she surmised the reason why it and its East Coast variant General Tso's chicken are so popular: It is fried, it is sweet and it is chicken -- all things that Americans love.

It's Free Cone Day At Häagen-Dazs!

Categories: Bargains

Especially on a day like today, we can't think of three words sweeter than free ice cream. Good thing because Häagen-Dazs is having a free cone day, which is precisely what it sounds like. Go to a participating shop from 4 to 8 p.m., pick a flavor of ice cream or gelato and then start licking. Easy peasy.

It's that time again. When the days are longer, and the sugar shoppes lure you in with free scoopage. Although with Ben & Jerry, it has to do with a whole lot more. Without loyal fans, their ice cream empire would not be what it is today. Or as Ben says, "Business has a responsibility to give to the community from which it draws support."

Serving over a million cones around the world to celebrate their anniversary, newer flavors include Candy Bar Pie and Liz Lemon Greek Frozen Yogurt.The Vermont boys invite kids of all ages to "Cone Together" and have some dessert.

IKEA to Offer All-You-Can-Eat Swedish Easter Smörgåsbord

Edwin Goei

With the bad IKEA food news I've been reporting of late, I think it's appropriate to counter it with some "good" IKEA food news.

The IKEA in Costa Mesa will host an all-you-can-eat Swedish Easter Smörgåsbord on Friday, March 22.

The price for "IKEA FAMILY Members" is $9.99 per adult, and $2.49 per kid aged 12 and younger. The nonmember price is $12.99 per adult, $4.99 per child.

Tickets are sold per seating time and are on sale now at the restaurant. Despite what has been going on in the news, expect seats to be limited. The first seating is slated for 4 to 6 p.m., followed by a second from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

Curious about what they'll serve? Read below. And yes, there will be horse-meat-free meatballs.
