General Tso's chicken

No idea, but I was thinking about it.

I've been craving Korean BBQ, but I don't think any place in the town where I work has it.

hey HEY, PD. don't be sad. it's delicious and you've earned it. be proud!

Exactly what about Minestrone soup is

?

I'll be having some delicious spaghetti with undefined sauce.

It started out as tomato sauce, then I added some spices on a whim - and when that failed to produce any meaningful (or edible) results I just poured in some leftover beer and cheese gratings.

Now it's actually pretty tasty, albeit hot as hell. My cooking skills never cease to amaze me.

Didn't have anything in he house except for a can of it, meh. I added some hot peppers and extra pasta but it was still so, so boring. Need to go shopping this weekend

There is one Chic Fil A in Washington state.

It's on the campus of Western Washington University and you can't access it unless you're a student there.

I had this Steak and Cheese sandwich from this place thats known for its Italian subs (uses fresh baked bread from the same place). Same Italian bread but minced up steak, dripping provolone cheese. Nice and salty. Shit was sensual.

I had a Gunpowder Masala Dosa today, along with some Sambar on the side. Was amazing though of course it made me take a shit right afterward...

Chipotle

I hate Mexican food even when it's not real Mexican.

Funny you guys brought up Chick Fil A. Yesterday I tried it for the first time yesterday and it was pretty good. The best thing was the waffle fries. I ate a large order in 2 minutes. Best fast-food chain fries ever. Spicy sandwich deluxe was pretty good as well but the nuggets were a bit disappointing. They were kinda soggy but I wonder if that's because I ate them last.

I'd even take fried chicken and watermelon over Mexican.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #25 on:** January 27, 2011, 07:57:36 PM »

I'm a foodie. I can't eat that crap. Mexican food has no refinement at all. It's just a tub of lard to fill you up.

Cormacaroni · « **Reply #35 on:** January 27, 2011, 10:46:11 PM »

I'm kinda screwed for lunch, we haven't been shopping in days and are just about clean out. All the leftovers are gone and no fresh veggies or meat left other than some squash.

Made a huger than usual breakfast (bacon, 3 egg omelette with gorgonzola, cherry tomatoes) to compensate somewhat but it's looking like I may have to go without until I get time to shop this evening.

Or I could just have more bacon and eggs.

Finally ate lunch at like 6pm... But the Chick-fil-A was astounding. Normal chicken sandwich, no pickles, add provolone.

Also, chocolate milkshake...

I went there last Sunday after I was majorly craving it...

The hours of operation sign should read:
Mondays: 6am - 10pm
Tuesdays: 6am - 10pm
Wednesdays: 6am - 10pm
Thursdays: 6am - 10pm
Fridays: 6am - 10pm
Saturdays: 6am - 10pm
Sundays: Please understand.

Have you tried Ethiopian cuisine? It's surprisingly good for a people that don't get much to eat.

None of that sentence logically follows.

Also Chick-fil-A

What's your top 5 cuisines?

Chick fil A is alright. The chicken didn't impress but I'd go back for the fries.

It figures. Any establishment that closes on Sundays has to be pretty loony.

The Ethiopian place I tried was in Oakland. Why are all the great Ethiopian spots up north?

one of the perks of living in the dc area is all the great Ethiopian food. they even sell injera at my local 7-eleven.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #43 on:** January 27, 2011, 11:31:28 PM »

Ethiopian food is great. Never been to an Ethiopian restaurant so I dunno if they Americanize things a bit.

It's so awesome going over a friend's house and their foreign mom or grandmother demanding you come in and eat.

Corporal · « **Reply #44 on:** January 28, 2011, 07:32:57 AM »

Some African food can burn a hole right through you. It's awesome. If you ask the cook to make it authentic standard Europeans and Americans will cry like a baby after the first nibble.

Remember that one Simpsons episode where Homer had his guts coated with wax? Just like that, only maybe a bit worse. Still, if your tastebuds can withstand it, it's delicious.

Back to the topic at hand: Beautiful me. And my lunch. But mainly me.

Today I had "Fried duck breast (Thai Curry)" from a local asia-themed kind-of-fastfood-chain. Pretty yummy, they fried the veggies for a few seconds in the same oil they fried the duck breasts in, making for a very tasty veggie sidedish. Dirty shortcut, but it works. I do wonder about my calorie intake today, though. The sauce was standard fare, cocos+curry+lemongrass is always a nice combo. The duck breasts were crispy and yummy.

Also, thank God for the likes of Sambal Oelek. It's only fun if it burns twice.
