It's good.

Meh...

Been in OP for years. It's awesome. Get a little ranch from the salad bar, and it's 100x better.

Welcome to years ago

Well, it just got here :harumph:

Seriously? Just now? We've had them here for close to a decade.

Where? On 119th? Been there for years? I dispute that.

The one in Shawnee opened in the last couple months.

They're really good but have a short shelf life. Eat in, don't get them to go.

135th but they moved

Meh, too expensive for what you get. Greasy. Just not all that.

They are a good sammich

Go for a fireball

There's one on 119th in OP. It's good but it's the same thing as Chartoose Caboose

Lmao at thread title change.

That food is anywhere in the range of "meh" to "dogshit".

Well, it originated in Omaha.


I like it. Damn good sandwich for 7 or 8 bucks. If you don't like salty food, it's not for you.

dogshit

enjoy your chain garbage

Not quality like that Indian slop, eh?

Chain does not automatically mean garbage.
There's plenty of 'local' places that are shit.

Takes actual talent and training to prepare it. So many different, amazing flavors.

they are putting one at 119th and ridgeview too ,in place of the old kings gas station

It's a god damn sandwich. Doesn't require a Michelin star.

ROFLRaiduhs:Lin:

My point exactly. Skip this joint and eat some real food.

Ate there in Omaha earlier this year, definite thumbs up

Its okay.

They hooked me up when I went there (LS location) a couple weeks ago to buy a giftcard for my stepfather for xmas. Their systems weren't accepting gift card transactions (i guess the card's strips weren't processing correctly), so they said they had to call corporate and asked if I had about 20 or so mins to wait. I was in the area shopping and wasn't in any hurry so I decided to wait. They couldn't get the cards to process but in the meantime they gave me a small sandwich and pop for free just for waiting. Nice manager. She called me once they started working and I came back and picked it up.

Obviously she didn't have to offer the free lunch, but it's small gestures like that, that make the person want to come back. It's almost a 20min drive from where I live and I easily could have just said **** the card and got something else after getting the free lunch.

I ways thought they were average to fairly shitty here.

I'm liking these Nirvana guys. It's different, but I like it.

Awesome. LS is such an awesome place!

No Wiz? Not authentic.

They are no Little Kings. That's fore sure!

I dont go out to eat to eat sandwiches

TRUTH BOMB

You are no longer our food expert after that goop you posted the other day. Looks like something that came out of my ass after a night of drinking.

That was the finest buffet food a strip mall has to offer.

I'm not a Clay apologist, but Korma Sutra is some fine food. There's a reason there are lines out the door to eat there. Don't go by pictures posted here. Try it for yourself.

Anyone familiar with Penn Station? How do the two compare? The comparison to Chartreuse Caboose doesn't inspire optimism.

Penn Station's italian sub is about the only thing that rivals Yellow Sub, IMO.

Plus, I like that they slice your fries right there in front of you.

Indian food isn't made to look good, it's slow cooked in sauces that relies on spices for flavor.

It's essentially variations on the concept of stew.

It's amazing.

Also, it wasn't part of a strip mall, billay. Not that that has ANYTHING to do with the quality of a restaurant.

People who judge food by it's appearance are terribly ignorant.

I'll walk there someday. If it sucks you owe me Murray's Ice Cream.

PepperJax isn't a sub shop. The fries do look similar though.

There's a place by us called Indian Garden that gets amazing reviews. I've never really had Indian food but I understand the concept and your pictures didn't turn me off. I love spices and I bet I'll like the flavor of it.

lewdog's gay day doesn't have the same ring though so I won't make a thread.

I like penn stations bread better than pepperjax

I haven't had fries from either place however

I'm demanding you go and demanding you post an every lewdog has his day thread.

Don't eat the vindaloo.

I'm not sure what that is but I'll avoid.

It's probably not on the buffet anyway. It's very hot.

Go for the buffet and sample everything. You'll probably like the tikka masala or butter chicken best.

I thought the buffet would only be weekdays, which I couldn't make because of work, but it looks like they have it everyday. I might have to try that next weekend.

Just looking at it on yelp, it looks very ****ing decent.

If you like bean and lentil-based dishes the Dal Makhani will also be worth your time. Saag Paneer is cheese in spinach curry. Not for everyone but I love it.

DO NOT eat the goat curry because the bones in it are kind of nasty to me.

Mango Lassi is a tasty treat as well.

Very interesting. I love curry but that sounds gross too.

You are vastly educated in many areas Baby Lee. Props.

If you want to try an Indian restaurant (1st time) I suggest you go with someone that's been there a few times. If you go to Karma Sutra they'll help you if you ask.

The best things about Indian food:

Completely different than anything you've eaten...
Naan
Samosas
They propagated Basmati rice
Great desserts that aren't huge pieces of cake
Sweet/hot spice
Drinks that aren't soda pop.

I'll think of more, but that's it for now.

Chartroose Caboose is awesome imo.

For the savory, rather than spicy, dishes, it's amazing that Indian can be so different from 'American' fare, yet still seem like comfort food.

They truly have an eye for the perfect spices to complement a dish.

Spicy dishes are just a plain old adventure.

Navratan Korma, Tikki Masala, and Palak Paneer.

Dang! I knew I'd miss some from my post. What's Indian food without Masala and especially Paneer! I am ashamed.

I'm really glad we turned this thread about shite sandwiches into a decent thread.

Kheer

Mint Chutney - don't know if I'd even mess with Naan if it weren't for mint chutney.

Penn Station blows PepperJax away. Love the Pizza sub there, and the fries are real good too.

Mmm, yes.

And make sure you get a side of raita to dip all of your shit in. Also cools the palate.

http://i349.photobucket.com/albums/q...ber-raita7.jpg

I'm a bread freak so it's Naan.

Chicken Tikki Masala is good stuff, but man... it tears me up something fierce.

TIKKA

IT'S TIKKA

NOT TIKKI

A TIKKI IS A TORCH

Does anyone know of any dishes that don't have ANY sugar at these Indian places? I'm trying to watch my figure.

I could eat nothing but naan and sauce. So good.

Also I love the pakoras that are standard on almost every buffet, but at korma sutra they had pakora curry. ****ing awesome.

Oh, **** off.. it's just a typo. You're no culinary expert.

I'M NOT BUT PEOPLE KEEP CALLING IT TIKKI

I'm mainly talking about on a buffet. Don't know if I'd eat much Naan if it weren't for the mint chutney, especially since the buffet I go to also offers masala dosa [crepe rollups stuffed with spiced potato].

But here at home I have naan in the freezer and both mint and hot mango chutneys in the fridge.

Thread sidetracked into a ditch....

I get it. Korma Sutra in OP serves Naan at the table along with fresh side dishes. It's not on the buffet, but delivered warm after you've ordered or been through the buffet.

And they give you mango lassi, too.

Really ****ing cool.

Oh my god. I've only had these once but they are so good.

I think I need to date an indian girl.

Tell us all about the Big Mac they serve at Big Boy, Hi Boy, Low Boy... or maybe Big Biscuit! And how about those fries and catsup!

Shit on shitty bread with salty shit sauce stuff. Right up cosmos taste treat street.

OK.

Big Boy serves the Big Boy burger. Bigger than a Big Mac.

Hi Boy serves a double cheese that will make your sister come hard.

Big Biscuit is all about breakfast.

And no fries, great onion rings, bitch.

Stay out of Independence. Our fast food is too good for you.

All about shitty breakfast.

I got three better breakfast places in Waldo 2 minutes away and they don't have a 30 minute wait on Saturday morning.

Did you go to the one in Independence, or the one in Kansas?

There's no way any chain breakfast place in Independence is worth my time or money.

Funhouse Pizza is nice, though.

They have five locations, all in KC metro. That's not much of a chain. The restaurant in Independence is the original. I've been to the one in Kansas, and the Independence one is much better. Also did you try it more than once? Even good restaurants have bad days sometimes.

Agree on Fun House Pizza. On Tuesday nights you can get a small one topping Pizza for around $6. Makes a great meal.

The Wells brunch is great

Chain enough.

It is not worth even a five minute wait. It's basically IHOP.
