Tabonga | 2,313 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) I am going to go to lunch in a bit for the endless shrimp special at Red Lobster: Edit - It was indeed tasty - I had a dish of shrimp scampi, two racks of grilled shrimp and a batch of coconut shrimp. I brought home 1/2 of a baked potato* and two biscuits for part of supper later. *Helpful hint - I always get a spoon and put the garlic butter sauce from the shrimp scampi and dump it on the potato - makes left over potato and skin quite tasty.

I haven't been to Red Lobster in awhile. The shrimp scampi is indeed delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't seem to be as good as it was when I was a kid, but the endless shrimp is worth a trip. I prefer Bonefish Grill if I'm in the mood for seafood.

I prefer Bonefish Grill if I'm in the mood for seafood. There are relatively few seafood dishes I would want to have at a restaurant versus cooking it at home. Probably just crab legs and softshell crab (crab cakes are almost always better at home if you know what you're doing -- and bulk shrimp are so cheap that it makes it really hard for me to justify buying shrimp at a restaurant) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is another one that just falls flat in a coastal area with mom-and-pop seafood places around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fcgamer | 4,719 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I ate at Qingshui Pai Gu Mian today. It was fairly crowded, but the food was nice. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anruiukimi | 29 Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Lunch (and dinner omg) was a burger the size of my head from Farmers Fresh, one of those family-owned diner w/drivethru places near my workplace. I had never gotten a burger there before, so I stupidly thought "it can't be that big, I'll get a double!" And WELP Please note: I'm a weirdo who doesn't like cheese on her burgers, if you're wondering why it's kinda naked. I managed about 90-95% of the burger before calling it, it's just too big. Lesson learned! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue cheese makes for a tasty burger. My favorite for backyard grilling is a thick slice of havarti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I figured; goat cheese is a different texture from American or Cheddar which is more typical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesRobot | 5,786 Events Team · Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) Went to Diamond Thai for lunch today. Pineapple pork curry with potatoes. I got "hot" because I'm afraid to get "Thai hot." Tasty. Edited April 16, 2021 by JamesRobot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
