Only times i've eaten there i've felt sick afterwards, and the last time I had ordered a SALAD
-
That should be quoted on the menu- shrug included :lol
Country Fried Steak
Our country fried steaks are edible *shrug*
-
rv-driving upper-middle class olds who demand "value" for their money, where value == gross portions of grease and butter
-
I have to go there on Wednesday- blarghghghghghg- im just ordering an iced tea, but im sure that'll have butter in it too
-
Old people LOVE that stuff.
-
old people do love butter- one of my grandparents liked eating saltines with butter spread on them
-
It's like Golden Corral, the only people who actually WANT to go there are little kids and old people.
-
My grandma loves places like CJ. She also has cups from every fast food place in her car for free pop.
I think part of it has to do with growing during the Great Depression.
-
Never heard of it, I'm guessing it's not a Michigan thing. Is it like an Old Country Buffet or something?

Not buffet style. They serve gigantic portions of mediocre food in middle class shopping mall locations. Dan Savage wrote about them in Skipping to Sodom and Gammorah.

Hm, just visited their site. I can't think of anything like that around here.

The widow Maker :bow2

Is it really that much different than any other casual dining chain [Chile's, Applebee's, ect.]?

I've only been to Claim Jumper once, but their portions were outrageously large.

Yeah there's prolly some correlation between team size and quality of food at work lunches.
-
The only place I can think of that serves huge portions around here is Tony's.

We go once a year, right before our canoe race. You can literally order a pound of bacon

It's a diner, and pretty damn awesome imo; lots of truck drivers come through. Granted I wouldn't eat there more than once or twice a year, but the food is good

lmao
what a load of shit; what is it about home-made handed-down recipes supplied by mothers/grandmothers that implies infallible and impartial superiority to other recipes? add some cultural or ethnic authenticity and boom!! suddenly your holocaust surviving grandma’s fucking polish ghetto sock stew deserves a spot on the table every week. oooh, what a delicious treat!! seventy years of culinary advancements apparently can’t improve this world war 2 nazi-evading attic-slop.
:lol

that site is awesome

:(
I liked CJ before it closed down in my town. I usually only go for three things, french onion soup, jamabalaya and bacon cheeseburger. CJ is not bad as long as you get the simple stuff.
I tried their steak and seafood once and it wasn't great, especially since those items aren't that cheap. At $30, I expect a steak that tastes significantly better than something at Chilli's.
-
I've never even heard of this place.
-
Its a crime against humanity- when even the salad seems unhealthy wtffffffffff

I just remember that my favorite burger there is called The Widow Maker. :lol
Give it a try, MAF. I bet you'll like it.

real niccas go to Sizzler
-
Is Sizzler still around? I thought they closed down after an e-coli scare?
-
I haven't been back west in a few years, so pardon my ignorance.
Also, Claim Jumper is such a weird ass name. How do you market that?

Claim Jumper has to do with the gold rush. The restaurants are done up to look like that time period.
-
Oh. I'm sure you guys were taught all about the gold rush in school. We barely covered it.

Holy shit, Firestone Walker brews one of their house beers. :lol
-
Stick with Jambalaya. It's tasty and the portion is quite a bit smaller than most of their stuff. I like it better with rice instead of pasta.
-
I've never heard of jamabalaya with pasta... it's always rice...
???
-
Really? A lot of restaurants in So Cal give both options.
Also, Maf, nevermind what I said, you should probably just stick with beef stew.

Yeah this place always makes me sick- just too much not good for you. Why cant they just take everyone to someplace good like Taco Bell?
-
:yuck
At least in CJ, you always know for sure what meat you're eating.
-
What? How are you allowed on this forum if you dont like Taco Bell?
-

You should demand Olive Garden instead.
-
goddamn look at those salt counts- even the salad
-
I don't like any Mexican food except maybe El Tepeyac in East LA. Even then, I only think it's decent.

Had a dinner at Red Lobster tonight that was at least 3000 calories. Feasted like a boss.
I had a Lobster Lover combo:

and 1/2 of this lobter bake:
(http://www.redlobster.com/assets/images/lobsterfest/specials/lobster_bake.jpg)
bunch of appetizers, half a plate of lobster mac and cheese, half a plate of lobster mashed potatoes and a slice of apple pie.
Almost everything was soaking in butter and the stuff that wasn't, like the lobsters, I dipped in butter as well.
I've warned my roomate to be ready to do CPR on me for the next 12 hours.
