I would never put it past you to make fish puns just for the halibut!

And it still does! After 2.5 years, I left having consumed 0.00% of it!

*Except when it serves food poisoning.

Obviously. And that's interesting to me because I've lived all over the US and the food has always been predictable. I've had really shitty service, but not food (for what it is).

 

[SalaciousMonkey22]

I mean…Zaxby’s has a drive-thru and is definitely firmly in the fast food category, but their chicken is good, and one of the few things I miss from my time in Pensacola

Did they have wings of gold?

Aaaaaaaand I’m out for another week. See ya folks.

Same with me and Chipotle. In the last couple decades or so, most reports I’ve seen of food-borne illnesses are from Chipotle, but I can’t recall ever personally getting sick there There have been a few times when I thought “why risk it” and went somewhere else though

Noooooo! It’s not S&S without your postwhoring

The first and last time I ate at Chipotle, they only had cilantro rice and didn't have queso. Might as well burn it to the ground.

I’ve never really been a fan of the queso blanco that they serve at Chipotle and Moe’s. I prefer BWW hatch queso

None of those are in first date range imo.
But then again, I did start my dating life in the Midwest. A million years ago.

Take me somewhere that is locally owned and there is only one of them.
It doesn't have to be fancy. It doesn't have to have table clothes. And if it's pretentious- no thanks.

A solid micro- pub or all day diner would be a far better first date option in my opinion than any of those.

Also, imo... a first date is probably something like going for coffee and not a sit down restaurant meal in the modern era. I don't want to be committed to a whole meal with someone until I'm sure I can enjoy the time it takes to drink a coffee. Start with a low bar. lol

Amen. Even 20+ years ago when I asked my now wife out, it was for drinks. Which then led to dinner. But I already knew to make short first just in case the girl was crazy.

It was also a small locally owned place where you could get breakfast all day if you wanted too.

I think cascadia is on to something here.

My favorite first dates are coffee/walk on the beach.

With Harry Potter candles hanging from the ceiling?

With Harry Potter candles hanging from the ceiling?

Exactly!!! I bet you know of such a place.

The last place I went that had Harry Potter candles hanging from the ceiling was an adorable place that does afternoon high tea in Puyallup. (A word to the wise - don't try to pronounce that if you've never heard of the place.)

 

[UnquietDreams]

My favorite first dates are coffee/walk on the beach.

Cocktails (because it is a date, and I am old fashioned. Though I won't order and Old Fashioned, probably). Think The Bible Club in Portland, an old speakeasy. Then a walk in Selwood park. Dinner, or a slice at Escape, depending on the vibe for the night to that point. Bookstore, and let her pick out a book or three to buy.

You see the problem with this philosophy is you assume there is enough culture in parts of the Midwest that there are good local options

Sometimes, it's just picking the cream of the crap, not of the crop.

While I agree in principle, I've lived in places where you had to drive 45 minutes to get to something as "good" as Applebee's, and I hate that place!

This is hilariously topical right now as my highschool boy is considering taking his gf to either Olive Garden or (wait for iiiiiiiiit....) Cracker Barrel for their one year anniversary and combined Valentine's Day. Is so adorable and hilariously awful

It's been over 2 decades since I've had a first date, but I absolutely agree with you.

Have to say I really liked the Dawes led cover of Randy Newman’s I Love LA that lead off the Grammys. Been a decent fan of those dudes for over a decade now.
