Review of Fargos Pizza in Colorado Essay

During the summer of 2012 I went to a restaurant in Colorado Springs called Fargos. It is a family run restaurant that has been in the Springs since the 1940s and has gained quite a following. Fargos has been a top spot to take tourists, or just to take the family for a nice dinner. In this review I am going to express the pros and cons and my personal view on the famous Colorado Springs restaurant. From the outside of the restaurant Fargos looks like a very classy restaurant that would be very expensive. However, this might be the case because the restaurant is in a terrible location. Surrounded by a lot of unflattering one bedroom houses, one has to take in consideration how good the restaurant looks compared to the houses. Once you walk into the lobby of the restaurant, you are instantly taken back by the amazing wall designs, and luxurious couches all while walking on red carpet to get to the seating. The restaurant has two stories of seating and could easily fit around 300 people. Something different about this particular restaurant, is that you order your food from a window inside and you seat yourself. All of the waitresses are dressed up in old feathery dresses that remind you of the 1940s as does the overall atmosphere of the restaurant. There are luxurious stairways that look like they belong in an older mansion style house. Once you sit down, you notice that there are mirrors all throughout the restaurant with numbers on them. When youre food is ready then they will post your number on the mirror for you to come grab it. This is an awesome idea except Fargos is a pizza place that sells pretty large pizzas. The pizzas come out on pretty hot pans that can burn your hand while taking the food back to your seat. Also, the pizza can easily spill when going up the...

Character Analysis of Basil Hallward in The Picture of Dorian Gray, a Novel by Oscar Wilde Essay

The main character in The Picture of Dorian Gray, Dorian, is a man too easily influenced by his surroundings. He is quoted as saying, Basil Hallward is what I think I am Lord Henry is what the world thinks me Dorian is what I would like to bein other ages, perhaps (Wilde). This comparison falls in line with the moral of the story because Dorian is stuck with eternal youth and beauty even though he has a wicked soul. This causes different views of him by people who observe his daily life. Dorian is a sponge throughout the novel that absorbs everything and allows it to shape his personality, morals, and actions. Dorian Gray takes influence from Lord Henry, Basil Hallward, and the culture of society during which the novel was written. Lord Henry is the epitome of a wealthy, hedonistic gentleman seeking only pleasure, with little regard to cost or consequence. Lord Henry Wotton outwardly propounds hedonism, but it is his extreme egotism that drives him to manipulate both Basil Hallward a

Religious Symbolism in The Blessed Damozel, a Poem by Dante Gabriel Rossetti Essay

Dante Gabriel Rossettis poem The Blessed Damozel is full of religious symbolism. There is talk of saints, and the poem itself takes place in heaven. But underneath the religious symbolism is a deep sensuality, that makes one wonder if the white rose of Marys gift referred to in line nine is the gift of Mary the Virgin, or the somewhat less virginal Mary Magdalene. While the Damozel is in heaven, her appearance in heaven, her behaviors in life, and what happens when she and her lover are reunited suggest some less than virginal dealings, yet the damozel is blessed and resides in heaven. Rossetti was the child of liberals kicked out of Italy a heavily catholic country for their extreme political views. While Rossetti himself was not political, he may have espoused similar views regarding politics and religion as his parents. In the poem The Blessed Damozel, Rossetti was given the chance to essentially create his own heaven. Most everything he wrote seems to show that Rossetti espoused

An Analysis of the Character of Chichikov in the Poem, Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol Essay

Dead Souls takes place in the Russia of the late 1800s, where, unlike in America, one must be born into a prosperous family in order to have opportunities. The main character, Chichikov, is clever enough to develop a scheme in which he can rise from being a petty clerk to a respected landowner. In order to do this, Chichikov moves into a new town, pretending to already be a landowner, and begins a quest to buy the names of dead serfs who have not yet been officially reported dead. Each person that Chichkov presents this offer to has a different reaction, starting with the shy and introverted Manilov. Though he does not understand Chichikov's need for the names of these dead serfs, Manilov is a character that is so desperate for company that it does not take any effort to trick him into selling his dead souls cheaply. However, as Chichikov continues his journey, he starts to deal with more clever landowners who become suspicious of his scheme. Chichikov finds that the townsmen know
