The slow brewed iced coffee is the best. Try a hot Vienna Creme or frozen hot chocolate. Breakfast pastries are baked in house every morning, but when they are gone, they're gone. The Almond delight and Peanut Butter brownie are divine desserts. -
Member since October 16 2010 Jeff My 11 year old ate oysters We went to Dragos last night and ordered the charbroiled oysters. They are coated with parmesan cheese and cooked on a grill and served with a garlic butter sauce. After some begging and bribing my son tried one and HE LOVED IT!! Thanks to the staff for their help convincing him to eat it. They were awesome.

Member since October 16 2010 Jeff Cajun Food and music, Love it Where else can you combine great cajun food and live cajum music. I was able to enjoy a great meal of beautifully fried seafood served with some jambalaya and then washed down with a cold Abita beer and then spend the night dancing away to some classic music. It was a tremendous amount of fun packed into one evening.

Member since October 16 2010 Jeff Always Great For as long as I can remember, I have been going to Houston's for special occasions. The Prime rib is outstanding, there hand cut fries are awesome and the restaurant is always clean and well maintained. The staff is friendly and always makes me feel great on my day. Their daily specials make it affordable to go there for lunch at times also.

Member since October 16 2010 Jeff Hot Coffee on a cold night is great It got cold the other night and my family decided to go out for some coffee. The closest place to us was Ccs Community Coffee house so we went there. The coffee with chicory was awesome, and my son thouroughly enjoyed his Hot Chocolate. They had internet access so we took our laptop and my son finished his research while we were there. Perfect place on a frigid night.
Auto Inspection: The Dirty Details
In the US, most states require some form of vehicle inspection. Many of them require periodic evaluation, while some, like Maryland, only require it at registration of the vehicle and transfer of ownership. Most states employ government -operated inspection centers, but others, like New York and North Carolina, use private garages that require DMV approval.
Although there are many differences in auto inspection laws and regulation, they all have the same purpose; ensuring that the vehicles are safe for people and for the environment. For safety purposes, inspectors check vehicle components like the brakes and taillights. And for the environment, inspectors ensure that the chemical content of emissions is within acceptable ranges.
Fees for inspection vary wildly from state to state and even within state. For instance, in North Carolina, there is a $6.25 state fee for emissions inspection and a labor fee that can be $0.00 or as high as $23.75. It's similar for safety inspection, and states with window tint laws usually charge an extra fee to check the tint level during the inspection. In NC, total cost can be anywhere from $33.45 to $67.20.
When a vehicle fails inspection for any reason, the vehicle is no longer legal and it remains that way until the vehicle owner remedies the situation and has the vehicle inspected again. However, most states with periodic auto inspection allow citizens a grace period for failure. In many cases, the state provides a temporary sticker and gives the owner 30 days to repair the vehicle, re-inspect it and register it. The cost of inspection usually includes one re-inspection.
Another common form of auto inspection occurs prior to the purchase of a used car, especially when dealing with a private seller. This kind of auto inspection serves several purposes. It ensures the buyer that the vehicle would pass the state inspection and that the vehicle is in the expected condition. These auto inspections tend to be extensive and include the cooling system and other aspects of the car not normally required by state-mandated inspection. Because of this, these are also popular as preventative maintenance, and many shops do it as part of a tune-up and similar services.
