Western Omelet ($7.95)
The omelet was served with wonderful homefries, two slices of fresh orange, and two pieces of bread. I asked for whole wheat bread and it had a good flavor (not like the usual tasteless fiber like bread.) The omelet was cooked perfectly with onions, peppers and ham (cold cuts.) The atmosphere of the place was wonderful, in an old building with casual antiques. The Millside Cafe is in Lafayette - 12 Morris Farm Road (not Olde Lafayette Village) with parking and it is surrounded by antique shops. They also serve a nice Luncheon menu.. I will definitely be back for lunch.

JC's Grillhouse - Dinner
New York Sirloin steak ($20.00)
It was with great pleasure that I saw the change in their menu. They still have the large cuts of meat but they also have a 14 oz. and a 12 oz. steak for people who don't want to chew on half of a cow. Mine was the 12 oz. steak which I asked to be cooked medium rare. It was served with freshly cooked zucchini and smashed potatoes. The bread before the meal was excellent. The entire experience was wonderful. JC's is located in the former Spring House on Spring Street in Newton with parking on the street and a public lot behind. If you are looking for a wonderful dining experience that is not overpriced for what you are getting, go in and try out the new menu at JC's

Riviero Maya - Dinner
Camarones Verdes ($15.95)
After sitting, I was presented with tortilla chips and a salsa which looked freshly ground with a good hot bite to it. After studying the extensive menu for a while I told the waiter that I was tossed between two items. I could tell from his face that they were no his favorites. He asked if I was looking for shrimps, chicken or steak. After some discussion I placed my order for shrimp Verdes. It appears looking at the menu now that I got Camarones Borrachos. The meal was served with shrimp in a green sauce with onions and a strong taste of cilantro. The sauce was nice with a strong flavor but a little too salty for my taste. It was plated with rice and refried beans. I would have liked to see more refried beans. The main course had a nice bite to it although the menu stated their food was not served spicy unless requested. After the meal, I was offered a complimentary vanilla liquor. I enjoyed my meal and will definitely return. The menu offered wide variety of dinners plus the usual Mexican fare (tacos, chimicangas, burritos, enchilados, etc.) Riviero Maya is in the former Mama Roni's north of Newton on 206 in Branchville (almost across from the Yellow Cottage Bakery.) There is adequate parking in the lot and they have a liquor license (and bar) if that interests you. The dinning room is light and airy, painted in bright Mexican colors. This is only their first week open and some of the murals on the walls are not quite finished.
