Restaurants

While traveling, Cracker Barrel is tops in a sitdown type restraint followed by Bob Evans. In the fast food type I like Long John Silvers.

PS I usually keep changing order items so I don't get tiled of the ones I like best.
 

Haven't really splurged on this in a while.. But when I did, I spread it around, from city to city, and restaurant type, to restaurant type.

I would have to say the most boring by far is the typical Italian fare, I prefer finding the Northern Cuisine when it comes to Italian. Even then, I rather go to one of Several Steak House chains, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Vietnamese, Indian, Middle Eastern, Turkish, Greek, German, Polish, Portuguese/Spanish and Mexican

I think I covered all the ones I enjoy :tongue3: Depending where you are in NJ, you will find areas steeped in these specialty restaurants by region

Here are examples
Italian is pretty much everywhere :laughing7:
Iselin/Edison AKA Little Bombay (Mumbai) Indian
Highland Park Greek / Turkish
Brooklyn, NY Middle Eastern
Northeren NJ Korean/Japanese
Elizabeth/Newark Port/Spanish
Linden Polish & Vietnamese
Clark/Cranford Thai
Red Bank/Highlands German There are 1-2 other good ones in NW, NJ
 

Noticing a lot of chain restaurants are getting worse and worse in their quality. They're cutting back on seasonings and everything else. Really sad.
 

Any chain restaurants are only good for the first 2-3 months... After that, quality and service go right down the tubes. Sad part is these place are dollar for dollar more costly than going to your more intimate and better restaurants.

Tumbleweed, Texas Roadhouse, Cracker Barrel. Oh, and Chineese.
 

Outback all the Way!!!! Chug
 

the main chains are holding on around here, but smaller restaurants are dropping like flies.

alot of chains are changing hands also. we had a Western Steer become a Prime Sirloin, then a Ryans and back to Prime Sirloin
(what are they all owned by the same corp??) lol :dontknow:

funny thing is the food never changed :(
 

"Hell's kitchen" LA....and i order something very very simple and fast to make!
Tip: Never go during the first 4 episodes of a new series! lol.
 

Wife Loves Olive Garden. I don't like olives.

I will stick to my meat and taters in the crockpot! :thumbsup:
 

Not a lot but when we do, best has to be Outback. :icon_thumleft:

Blooming onion, original sirloin medium rare, loaded baked potatoe,

salad with ranch, & Sweet Southern Tea.

Consistantly good, and we have spent more for less, not as good.

all you can eat pasta....who in the heck CAN eat 2 bowls of pasta?
that is no deal, but it is a great gimmick of a draw of an 'illusional' deal LOL

like Red Robin...all you can eat fries....who can eat 2


give me a deal that I CAN eat and come out ahead LOL



I hate restuarants throwing out 'fake deals' as a draw.....yea some can eat it, those fatties, but most can't.
