Well, it may sound rather passe', but when I'm down there, the first
place I go for lunch in San Jose's - pick one, but I really like the
one over on Rt 6 behind the Carolina Wings place in Lexington. *

It's become a ritual. *:)

I've also been to several BBQ places - Hudson's, Maurice's (although
I'm not a big fan of mustard based sauces, but the atmosphere
is...um...interesting) and a couple others. Some chain operations that
I had never been too that are pretty good.

Breakfast? The Waffle House on Rt 6 and I-20 across the street from
the BP Kangaroo. Best damn greasy spoon I've ever been in. *:)


San Jose's and Monterrey's are both good Mexican food. My BIL knows
the guy that owns the San Jose stores... when he starts a new one, he
goes there and gets the place started, trains the manager, and leaves
him in charge. It's all family and friends, they sponsor new
employees from Mexico by providing jobs and getting them on their
feet. The guy that owns Monterrey's lives in my neighborhood, same
deal with them it seems.

Waffle House... scattered, smothered, and covered! Oh yeah. :-)

I thought it was the water. The local Florida bread leaves something
to be desired also.

When we first moved to Florida, and I went grocery shopping, I was
astonished at:

a. the lousy, crustless, tasteless substance that was being passed off
as bread. No matter what sort of bread it was pretending to be, it had
the same sponginess and pretty much the same taste. Lousy rolls, too.
We found *one* deli in the entire Jax area that "imported" its bread
daily from Baltimore, and it was pretty good.

b. the high price of produce. I really thought we'd be paying a lot less
at the grocery store for produce. Nope.

Where we live now, the best bread is baked by our local Panera store.
Real bread of substance with real crust. The supermarkets serve up
"spongy" bread, for the most part.

Well you are in luck stupid. Panera is a National chain. Panera bread is
available EVERYWHERE. You don't get out much, do you?


How often do you travel 10 or 15 miles to buy bread, silly dweeb?

Stupid question.
answer:
None of your business.

Hog jowls and cornbread -- yummmm.

Can't believe you're putting it down like that!

FloridaJim is *the* horse's ass. When we lived in the Jax area, there
were no Panera Bread stores that I ever saw. In fact, I think we left
the Jax area *before* there was a Panera chain.

Great analogy. The gyros here in Florida, especially Tarpon Springs, are the
OK. The pizza, it sucks, big time. About the only thing I miss from
Chicago is the pizza from a mom and pop restaurant.- Hide quoted text -

All Chicago style pizza isn't deep dish. The authentic deep dish pizzas
are excellent!

My sister sent me 4 slabs of Carson's ribs once.
They come dry-iced. Baby backs in foil packs and already sauced if I
recall. Just heat 'em up in the oven.
As good as any ribs I ever had.
Too bad the kids hadn't moved out.
There was a place called Eddies in Logan Square.
Don't know if it's still there, but best ribs ever.
Hickory cooked baby backs and excellent sauce.
