True.  I have fond memories of red lobster for a decent feed at a decent price.
Not 'stellar' but then the prices arent either.

Me either normally.  I pick a place with little line or none at all.  I am not
afraid to try a place that is empty and just ask 'whats good today' and get
that.  Heck, I order off a wall painted menu with no english and no pictures
so I am not your average lady <G>.

Best feedbag ever: Hole in the wall place in Pohang Korea.  I have no way to
tell you the names of what i ate but gosh it was good!  The table was the
floor sitting type and covered with plastic trashbags then brown paper and
masking tape to hold it together.  The cusions were just right.  The company
around us were gleeful and offered bits of things which we ate and offered
bits of stuff back for sharing.

One place to always go to thouh it's gone now:  Mommas Kitchen in Virginia
Beach. Very simple 'down home' cooking like restraunts seldom make. Real cheap
prices.  Their chicken and dumplings are home made long fat (think lasagnga
shaped ones but fatter) and all the meat is dark meat for the flavor.  The
gravy is to die for!

Charlotte wants to take me to an Udon place in the ginza that she swears wil
knock my socks off.
