Miami is one of the best 'foodie' places in America. Probably the best South American food anywhere, and a lot of Greek, Italian, French, German, Russian......... Just everything. For lunch today, we tried a, for us, new place. Blue Collar. Food was out of this world, and trust me, I am picky. http://www.bluecollarmiami.com/

We got a dandy biscuit joint,....... Did you check it out yet? Or does the mule keep bucking the cart harness and you can't get to town? Back on the original topic though, my particular town doesn't have much to crow about, but I DO live just about 40 minutes outside of DC and only 15 minutes outside of Frederick, both of which are food lovers' paradises.

Consulted the mule and he's good to go as well. Big storm coming tomorrow. Gonna hitch mule to the snowplow. He ain't too wild about that. Wants more hay,5 day work week and paid vacation. Gonna look up "how to marinate mule" when I'm done typing this.

Our biggest problem is a lack of local fresh primary ingredients.
We have a surprisingly diverse cuisine but as I'm fond of saying we have two types of service, slow and very slow.

I've been in Greater Cincy for 25 years now, but I just can't bring myself to brag it up (Graeter's ice cream, notwithstanding). That said, I've not had a finer steak in DC, NYC, Chicago, Vegas... anywhere, than what Jeff Ruby puts out of his restaurants. Morton's, The Palm, Chicago Chop House, Ruth's Chris, Gene & Georgetti, Smith & Wollensky - they're all top notch, no doubt. But the Ruby joints truly are world class. Bring your wallet. Bring a 2nd mortgage. FC

The thing about restaurants here is a fairly average steak is 30 bucks and I can literally see cows out each window of the restaurant........ and service has two speeds, slow and just go find it yourself.........

Booming! Both in Virginia and South Carolina.
Especially, Greenville, SC, which is on fire. As I recall, Greenville along with Orlando and Cleveland were huge test markets for new chain products.
Regardless, the locals really support the locals here.
Cannot remember the last time a local closed its doors here.

I'll brag up two places. In Iowa, The Iowa River Power Company, Coralville, Iowa. An old hydro electric generating plant made over into a restaurant.
In NW Ontario, Dryden, the Riverview Lodge, a century old log building that was built as a privet hunting lodge.
Mostly, however, our dinning room is my, all time pick.

I rarely eat out for steak. Anyplace that might serve a steak better than I can cook myself is way too expensive.

Within just a few miles (heck, I can walk to two of these) are some really great places. Great seafood - https://www.catonsvillegourmet.comSome innovative cuisine - http://www.blackkettledining.comFrench country as good as any place in the country - http://tersiguels.comPlus tons of great pubs and taprooms. There are many disadvantages to living here. Lack of outstanding eateries isn't one of them.

We have an Omni luxury resort in town, it has spawned a bunch of high $$ trendy small resturants. Everytime a new one has opened I have forcast failure, as we live in a depressed area with few good jobs. Despite my poor business sense, I still say we need good places for normal people. We have a good cheap Italian place, average Chinese, anyplace good is 30+ miles away

I Love Tacos I love this place. Best tacos in town. Shrimp tacos and wet burritos are my favorites. If you're gonna order their nachos, you better come hungry. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/i-love-tacos-pembroke-pinesIL Posto You can't find a better Italian restaurant for lunch. Everything on their lunch menu is $10 or less and it's all delicious. Comes with salad and homemade Italian bread and sauce to dip it in. I went there today and had the lasagna. The bill with tip was $11. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/il-posto-ristorante-hollywood

I live out in the country 15 miles from my town of 8000 folks so only a couple "local" that are just fine. If we head into San Antonio plenty of great places are there though we rarely eat dinner out. The place in Idaho has little but it does have a handful of places that make spot on American breakfasts. None of the British beans crap. Also, a couple of places that do Mexican very well.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

We have a surprisingly diverse cuisine but as I'm fond of saying we have two types of service, slow and very slow. I agree, 458. If you haven't tried them yet, you may want to give Turkey Red out in Palmer a try. While their dishes are nothing fancy, they strive to use fresh locally sourced ingredients. Their braised beef short ribs, and "stew of the day" are really quite good. Jeff

Nothing to right home about, though I can get a good pizza about 20 miles away.
On the plus side, I haven't seen anything other than white people in the last week.

I'm hating this current rage around "small plates," i.e., a way to charge you the same for 1/2 the food. It's so prevalent that I just mainly bag going out.
Have one place that cooks a mean bone-in pork loin chop. Goes well with a Ketel One martini.

Man, some of you folks are really suffering. It's so easy for us folks down here in south FL to find a good place to eat out, I guess I probably take that for granted sometimes, and new ones are popping up all the time.
Not too long ago found a new taco joint in Ft Lauderdale. No bigger than some people's walk in closets, but the real deal.

Gregg, I will second that on taco joints and Mexican food. La Esperanza's in Cutler is one of my faves. No lack of taco trucks either. Just like truck stops, look for long lines and get in.

Many great restaurants nearby, but usually expensive. It takes effort to ferret out the affordable places that are good. Mostly I cook for myself.

pal, that's gotta suck. The competition here is what I believe keeps quality up and prices down. Also, many of the good ones run specials or put out coupons. Sam's right. Foodies here can eat great breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day and never go to the same place for weeks. One of the good things about south FL. Can't remember the other one.

we are going to try a new place tonight, well, new for us. Only a few blocks away, so we will walk. Novocento. Argentinian bistro. Gets good reviews, and should be tasty. http://www.novecento.com/index.php?option=com_ovacomposer&view=page&Itemid=139greg, the other good thing about South Florida, is all the hot looking babes over at the beach. Sadly, none speak English. lol

Locally we have a good mix of all sorts of cuisine from varied persuasions. It isn't what Bozeman was like 40 years ago before all the migration of people coming here to rape, pillage and modify this little piece of Montana to the diversity preferred by the migrants. With all of that, a good restaurant has to know how to make a great burger, such as the York Bar...

When the wife and I were in Livingston some years back, we had breakfast in the restaurant that used to be the old RR depot. Their biscuits & gravy were excellent. Wonder if it's still there, and still good? Jeff

Locally we have a good mix of all sorts of cuisine from varied persuasions. It isn't what Bozeman was like 40 years ago before all the migration of people coming here to rape, pillage and modify this little piece of Montana to the diversity preferred by the migrants. With all of that, a good restaurant has to know how to make a great burger, such as the York Bar... That looks good to me! When the wife and I were in Livingston some years back, we had breakfast in the restaurant that used to be the old RR depot. Their biscuits & gravy were excellent. Wonder if it's still there, and still good? Jeff There is a restaurant there but over the years, ownership has changed. It is a decent place still, but your best meal within 100 miles would be down the street a couple blocks at the Montana Rib and Chop house...

Here in Annapolis we have a rich selection of great bars and restaurants- something for everybody. There are literally hundreds of places within a five mile radius. I usually gravitate to one of the joints that has a raw bar, and sit and eat raw oysters and drink local brews. That or one of the couple of "authentic" Irish bars for Guinness and Shepherd's Pie. (The one two blocks from where I work is owned by a guy from Dublin who re-created it in the style of his favorite local back home- raw wood floors, scarred wooden bar top, and a menu to die for-- and best of all, not a TV screen in the place.)
The competition for our dining-out dollars is fierce. In order for a place to survive in this environment they must serve top-notch food and keep prices in line. We the dining public are the winners for that.
Thai, Mexican (not Tex-Mex), French, Italian restaurants all tempt me when I head out for my weekly foray.

...............0................ eat at home alot........ you should try the aluminum warming tray liners from sams or costco under your chickens. cheap and real easy cleanup. no flaring is a plus too.

Following on what I've mentioned before about the quantity of great little Mom & Pop ethnic restaurants, I stopped into a small Israeli place I'd been meaning to try out on my way back from Bass Pro shooting the new G19 I bought recently. This is a shawarma and salad. Roasted turkey shaved from a verticle rotisserie and reheated in a pan, served in a pita stuffed with whatever additions you want added in there. I had this one stuffed with hummus, pickled onions, pickled red cabbage, and their version of a hot chili paste. Really good and really filling. The Israelis pickle all kinds of vegetables. They would probably pickle your azz, if you stood still long enough. Price? Free. After I told the owner working the rotisserie it was my first time there. I got the feeling they don't see many big gentiles in the place. The little place was busy and I quickly found out why with the food. Everybody was friendly and they all seemed fascinated by the Harley shirt I had on from Cherokee, NC with a big painted Indian face on the back.

Il Posto Italian Ristorante in Hollywood for lunch yesterday. Spaghetti with mussels and calamari, crusty bread and garlic rolls with marinara for dipping, and salad (already gone in this pic). $11 + tip OTD and a cute and friendly Slovakian girl to bring it to me.
