I wasn't born in the KC area and I agree with you. FD's is for people that don't own a smoker.

far and away...

Outback. Calling that shithole a "steak house" is an insult to cow anus everywhere.

I agree.

I've been dragged to 4 or 5 Hooters and hated their food. Plus, 75% of the women I saw there weren't edible either.

Man ... I don't eat at any of those places. Ever.

I guess the only "overrated" place I patronize that you guys may know would be the Loveless Cafe. (Paul McCartney once remarked in a Rolling Stone interview that the Loveless was his favorite restaurant.) They used to have really good southern fried chicken with gravy and biscuits, but something bad must have happened and they lost their touch.

People still rave about the place and I eat there occasionally, but they are living on past reputation, so far as I can tell.

Although, I have to admit that they do have a pretty decent mail-order breakfast deal you can buy on the internet and have shipped. It can include pancake mix, preserves, bacon, sausage, and stuff like that. Their breakfast stuff isn't too bad ... particularly the preserves.

Yep... I haven't been there since it changed ownership, but it's one of my favorite places. I tend to get the same basic dinner, and I'm never disappointed.... steak soup, a steak with a twice baked potato, and apple crisp. :drool:

And it's one of the few places around here that can make a good Long Island Iced Tea... not the watered down crap at most bars and restaurants.

Mosbonian 02-27-2012 07:41 PM

Sorry...I didn't see the others, I just scanned the pages.

Yeah, we had a great lunch. It was nice that the Doc that took us pretty much said, open tab when we went in for lunch too though. We had some top notch wine and great steaks.

I get 3 sandwich sliders (usually turkey or bbq chicken) plus a drink and a side for $5.50 plus tax. I always get a cornbread, and they charge for it about half the time. Now they have punch cards where your fifth meal is free, so it works out to about $5.00 a meal. You can't eat at McDonalds for that.

a burrito and drink fron Chipotle is as healthy or healthier than 3 sliders, a side, and a drink.
