Seafood varies greatly, yes, especially fresh vs. frozen (pretty much everything but fresh catch at RL is frozen). Crab - snow and king anyway, as referenced in my post - mostly comes from the same region and is mostly (all, I think) frozen. There's a world of difference between a lasagna and steaming some frozen crab. Crab is pretty hard to **** up unless you over-season it or overcooked it. It's simpler and has fewer points of possible failure. I've had frozen snow and king crab in my house from a shitty steamer that was as good as any crab I've had at RL. It just isn't hard.

Of course this is all just my opinion, which I would think on a message board would be obvious without specifying.

I wasn't demeaning your opinion, stop being so dramatic.

I'm not just talking about me, but you need a little self-awareness. I'm saying this out of love.

It's easily a 1/2 dozen times a week you tell someone their cooking or eating choices are 'unacceptable' for some reason or another.

I try to be easygoing generally. Today it just struck me particularly wrong. If I was too harsh, I apologize.

Taking this out of here. Sending a PM.

Red Lobster, especially if allowed to carry-out and avoid wall to wall crying children.

actually, i'd just as soon hit up the crab shack.
or long johns silvers...don't band me.
sec

Hard to fina a national list that even mentions that place.

I use to love LJS for a long time but it's gone down hill as a franchise they don't keep up fixing up the restaurants to make them nice and they get a bit grungy. I still will go once in a while but it's not the memory I enjoyed when I was in my younger years. The food is meh anymore also but I still like it enough to go back, I just don't feel like ringing the bell when I leave.

As long as you're not ordering the bag of dicks, I think you're good. :D

I've had a Wendy's resurgence recently. The one near my house was fixed up quite nice, and I've had a few meals there now. Good stuff.

it's good - again, not as good as it once was - but still not bad.

They both suck

"Let's say I rang up McDonald's, spoke to the main man,and say Yo Ronald? Give me the cash."

if you try the Portobello Ravioli from OG - it is strong enough to entirely reshape your opinion of the restaurant as a whole.

Not even close for me. Red Lobster is the winner.

Olive Garden is disgusting... If I want Italian food, I will go to Carrabbas.
