[Dining Review]
 
Don't ask about the square brackets...I just like them :p

What I thought might be "fun" is to post about interesting dining experiences. Let's face it, some restaurants are god awful, but then others are fantastic. Either the food is sublime, the service has an interesting gimmick or just the setting is a bit surreal.

For one, I always love the long table seating in Wagamama. Not sure if you have it in the states, but essentially it's a noodle bar. However the seating is communal. As in, your dining party sits directly next to total strangers who are in turn next to strangers. I always enjoy that just because it's fantastic for people watching...and listening.

Hmm, I think my favorite places to eat are Pappas, which is just a local diner-type joint, and Lucky's Coffee Shop, a great place with an eclectic menu.

I think my grandmother went to one of those. That's basically what she described to me and yeah, it does sound pretty damn fun. And it gives you a good reason why not to put your elbows on the table :D

I like Outback Steakhouse and Red Lobster. My wife loves Kobe Jap Steakhouse. I havent tried it yet. Speaking of, I was just at Red Lobster last weekend and the waitress was feeling all over my arms looking at my tattoos. Then while we were eating the manager came over to see my tattoos. I thought it was pretty rude for a manager to do that. Am I overreacting?

Has anybody ever been to a Logan's Roadhouse? Every time we go to America we relish in those places. I mean, come on! It's done in the style of a roadside bar, but the gimmick is that each table has a bucket of shelled monkey nuts. You crack it open, eat the nuts, and chuck the shell on the floor. Nutshells everywhere. The food itself is...passable. Nothing fantastic but nothing disappointing.

Lol, I almost mentioned that place earlier in this thread. It has pretty decent food and the peanut gimmick is cool(my 2 sons love it).

I tried Outback Steakhouse once in Joplin Missouri, I thought it sucked and have vowed to never go to another one(dry, tough steak and stringy/rubbery lobster, yuck!)

No - its rude to maul someone without their permission. Its worse that its in an establishment that you were paying to eat in....

Whenever I go to the states which is about once a month I go to Jack in the Box, they have some of the best hamburgers in the world. In most cases the food in Mexico is better, but American hamburgers and pizza tastes like something you find in a barnyard.
