And I will still eat the hell out of the crazy bread Soccer tournament this weekend. Late games @ 520pm and 840 pm. Grabbed 15 pizzas from there, tailgated between games. Badaboom.

November 27, 20187 yr Fuck itOG rules. What lacks flavor in their entrees they make up in salad, bread sticks and delicious iced tea.

The breadsticks were the only reason why I would go to Olive Garden
November 27, 20187 yr Or you could just not go to Olive Garden because it sucks. Instead of eating at fast casual shitholes once a week, do what adults do---eat at a greasy dive and a high-end local joint instead. It balances out and you don't have to be ashamed.

That whole end of town is littered with great family owned Italian joints. The kind of places where they have back rooms, and you routinely hear people conversing in Italian. I lived in Des Moines from '08-'12 and ever since I refuse to step foot in an Olive Garden.
July 30, 20196 yr Verts>Noon>Daphne's clusterfuck is finally dead. http://austin.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/07-30-19-daphnes-mediterranean-verts-noon-closes-all-texas-locations/ Now, can someone that's not a borderline regard take the original Verts kebap recipes and open a counter service restaurant?

July 30, 20196 yr Burger King. Their nuggets that are like 10 for $1 might be some of the worst food mankind has created.

I've always thought of Burger King as a yankee thing, like Pepsi. I can't think of a single Texan I grew up with that ever ate at Burger King, or ever drank Pepsi.
July 30, 20196 yr I've always thought of Burger King as a yankee thing, like Pepsi. I can't think of a single Texan I grew up with that ever ate at Burger King, or ever drank Pepsi. It's been a while but $1 whoppers were a thing during my utee98 days.

July 30, 20196 yr burger king used to have 2 burgers 2 fries for $2.22. early 90s i think. back when i refused to eat mcdonalds.

Love to get a couple of painkillers every now and then.
July 30, 20196 yr Burger King was my high school summer job so I still like them. Plus here in North Alabama I get tons of coupons for buy one get one free so it's also a price performer. No idea on nuggets but I still like the Whopper.
July 30, 20196 yr Their cheap food is meh, but the frozen house Margaritas are damn good as are the onion rings. Edited July 30, 20196 yr by Armybrat
July 30, 20196 yr Never cared for BK for a good number of years but have recently revisited them of late, really like the chargrilled taste.
July 30, 20196 yr Probably liquid smoke, but the taste is better than a lot of those fast food burgers. They used to have a decent chocolate shake.
July 30, 20196 yr I'll occasionally hit BK for a Whopper, but that's about the only food item I'll order at that place.

Not a huge fan of ketchup/mayo on a burger but it works on a whopper for me. Never liked Cheddar’s but wife and jr liked their pecan chicken salad, we walked out of the one in pville due to poor service. Edited July 31, 20196 yr by Underdog
July 31, 20196 yr Burger King. Their nuggets that are like 10 for $1 might be some of the worst food mankind has created. It is.. but they do have bomb sweet and sour sauce that you soak them in... that a fry and a coke for 3 bucks.

I can't think of a single Texan I grew up with that ever ate at Burger King, or ever drank Pepsi. Pepsi is actually from coastal Carolina. It is typically the drink of choice at pulled pork restaurants that style themselves as "BBQ" though, of course, I never frequent such places owing to the fact that they suck. Meanwhile, why is it called "Waffle House" when their waffles suck? "Hash Brown House" would more accurately describe the thing they actually do well. Edited July 31, 20196 yr by Walden Ponderer
July 31, 20196 yr Good point on the TCBY by campus. I drive by that thing probably 6-10x a week and never see anyone there. Maybe 1 or 2 cars in the lot, figure they have to be employees. Nobody ever inside at the counter, nobody at the drive-thru. And this has been the cast for the last 10+ years. You never see anyone walking around eating one. You never see the empty cups littered about campus or the Drag. You never see any other TCBY's anywhere in the whole state. And there is a proliferation of frozen yogurt, custard, popsicle, ice cream, and assorter purveyors of trendy confections. You see all that shit everywhere, but no TCBY and nobody is ever eating inside there. Dammit, now I'm gonna go inside and get one next week so satiate my curiosity.

I’ve often thought the same thing about IHOP, who make maybe the worst pancakes you can buy at a restaurant.

Taco Bell and BK had good deals for us poors who were in college in the 80's and 90's. I could have a Whooper, fries and a small drink with free refills for under $2. Same goes for Taco Bell with three tacos and small drink. But the best thing was to wait for the HEB deli to close at get a dozen pieces of fried chicken for $4. That was preferable. I've been a few times to Taco Bell with my boys when they were pre teens/teens and if they had friends along, it was cheaper to feed those food hogs that stuff vs. going to Whataburger or a sit down/order off a menu place. If they said Taco Bell, then I would find the nearest one and let them have at it while I watched and maybe had some nachos.
July 31, 20196 yr Wife wanted TB last night after work and I got KFC, good Lord KFC has gotten so damn expensive. It would have been cheaper to get one of the expensive family meals instead of one of their meal deals, but I didn't want to be eating fried chicken all weekend. Speaking of fried chicken, Cracker Barrel has surprisingly good FC.

I've always wondered about the "International" part, too. I mean, how often have you gone there and marveled over the Pakistani waffles, Singaporean pancakes, Salvadoran bacon, or Tunisian poached eggs?

July 31, 20196 yr I was in Ohio for work and Cheddars was our best option. I was told it was like a Poor Applebee’s. It wasn’t that bad but I wouldn’t ever chose to go there
