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.maddash wrote:My general rule is that I'll risk a few days out with food poisoning to have something good. Now, I'm not going to push it and get sashimi at the local strip club or something like that, but I'm not one that is scared easily by culinary delights.
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.
