| @Bronte Those look yummy! I'd add a little salsa to dip or drizzle. |

 The apple sauce and pudding were the best part...

| @Byrdibyrd These were from Chili's the semi fast food company. I had a coupon for free appetizers so I figured I'd give it a shot. Not too bad. Definitely prefer home made but if you are out anyways and need to kill some time before an appointment it's okay |

| @Bronte I totally failed to recognise Chili's handiwork! I don't go there very often. They're not so bad and are one of the few places to get a steak for well under $30. |

| I think I ordered steak a couple of times from them but its definitely not a regular thing. I prefer Longhorns or Texas Roadhouse for my steaks. I've never been to anything fancy like Ruth Chris or Mortons though.... | ||

| @Bronte I love a good steak, but they're so pricey that I take 'em where I can get 'em sometimes. When I have the cashola I do prefer a proper steakhouse, though. | ||

| I'm becoming convinced that Panda Express is the best fast food/takeout chain in the country. For $11 I got Beijing Beef, Orange Chicken, Beef & Broccoli, Chow Mein and Fried Rice. Basically two full meals for an average appetite. The one by my house has a help wanted sign listing 3 positions and starting pay for the lowest position is $18/hour. That's a pretty impressive business model to pay that well, offer that much value to the consumer and still turn a profit. | ||

| If they truly treat their employees like that, I'm all for it. Otherwise, I won't get started on the chow. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by HeinzDad It's possible that it's not the same all over the country. The location in my area is less than 45 minutes away from the founding restaurant, Panda Inn. And the volume is such that the food moves quickly from pan to take out box. |

| @EbayMafia Panda Express used to be pretty nasty. Very greasy food, questionable freshness, unkempt restaurants, etc. The past couple of years I have noticed a big change. The restaurants are much cleaner, they're paying a lot more attention to how the food is prepared, and that's really cutting down on the excess greasiness, and I don't see tired-out food waiting to be served. I've been favourably impressed the past few times I've been there. Used to avoid it like the plague, but not anymore. | ||

| @EbayMafia I'd the 18$ an hour CA or Texas? Florida is still under 10 last I checked for fast food |

Has the Tajin spice hit household status all over the country yet, or is it mostly known in states with larger Mexican/central/south American populations? A year ago I had not heard the name, now I see it everywhere. Everybody is putting it on fruit now days. The Mexican restaurant near my house serves a mango blended margarita with a Tajin spiced rim. It's addicting, but I think it spikes my blood pressure. |

| Try getting some Sriracha hot sauce. Shoulda stocked up on first call saying there would be a shortage. (Never liked it personally, but I have seen a shit ton of folks down it like ketchup on fries) | ||

| We couldn't find it in its normal spot, hot sauce. The asian aisle had it though but it was a big azz jug. We have been re filling the regular container. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Bronte I was really big on Siracha about 10 years ago. Even to the point of taking my own bottle with me to certain restaurants. Not sure why I've kind of lost my taste for it. It's a really nice compliment for sandwiches that have humous or Tzaziki sauce (gyro's and such). It also goes really nicely with Bleu Cheese in some situations like a hamburger. |
