Quick Bites, Very close-by

Down the street from Budding are 2 restaurants we have used for quick bites. Go west on Budding turn left on Jones Maltsberger at gas station; after the new carwash you will see a small shopping center with several restaurants. We have eaten at Tacos & Salsa and Kogi Steet (Korean Fusion). Others fast food restaurants in area of Jones M. & Starcrest are: Subway, McDonalds, Bayseas Catfish, & Ed likes AJ's Bar & Grill.
