It just depends on the place. If it's a respectable restaurant it doesn't really matter where it is. We had swordfish filets flown in overnight from Hawaii for a special last weekend. You just need to find a chef/owner that cares and you'll get good food anywhere in the country.

I love Fogo de Chao.

I made a delicious pizza from scratch tonight. I must say, it doesn't help get you a foot in the door, but it is great once you are already in; ladies love cooking skills.

I had crust from scratch, olive oil, oregano, garlic, asiago, parmesan, mozzarella (all freshly grated), vine ripened tomatoes, pine nuts, shaved black forest ham, real salami and fresh peppers. A nice argentinian red wine from Trader Joe's and we were good to go tonight.

Did you pop out of a cake and tell her "I'm for dessert"?

RC's Ponderosa/Conway Twitty jab is hands down the funniest post made in GRB history. I can't explain why I fell over laughing from that, but I did.

I might let you get into my pants if you cooked that for me.
