What's your favorite restaurant?

and why?

Probably Lai-Lai's Dumpling House:

• I've been going since 1987, and know the family well
• Best combination of family/Chinese/authentic/cheap in Houston
• Memories, oh so many memories
• Round tables can always fit one more

Alice's ...
You can get anything you want.

Blue Bayou

Excellent atmosphere.

The Galaxy Cafe, 46th and 9th, Manhattan. Just a coffee shop.

Because I ate lunch there every day, and read my paper. My favorite part of the day.

I really like Emerald in Kearny Mesa for dim sum. Their dim sum selection is huge and inexpensive.

For Mex, this little hole in the wall called Kotija is my favorite. I eat their quesadilla supremes and breakfast burritos at least once a week.

For Thai, I like Lotus. Their lunch specials give you a main course (choose from 15, from phad thai to spciy basil), a small popyyseed salad, coconut soup, and little fried rolls for $5.95. It's literally two meals worth of really good food.

For Italian, I like Giovanni's, a tiny little place that started out as a sandwich shop and now serves wonderful dinners. I stood there and watched them make my shrimp linguini from scratch. Authentic & delicious.

For sandwiches, I like the Sub Palace. The subs are HUGE, and everything's super fresh and good, from the meat to the tomatos to the bread.

There's more, but I'm getting hungry.

Wo-Hop's, Mott Street in Chinatown. Not the upstairs, but the cafeteria in the basement. 4-D lo mein at 3:00 am.

The Olive Garden. I go so rarely. *le sigh*

Confetti's...all american flare with great fresh seafood. The chef is phenomenal and makes every meal to order. He even comes out to check to make sure it is just right. The ambience is art deco and the music is all great standards. I love the feel of the joint.

Pagliacci's is an awesome italian restaurant. The portions you get last you for three meals. You can't help but leave with left overs no matter how much you eat.

There used to be this fabulous restaurant in Hartford...but it is long gone now but that was a great place too. Very sophisticated and the food was extraordinairily paletable. The decor was rich and sensual...my date got lucky that night.

Denny's Open 24 hours for the late night early morning munchies!

Everthing tastes like crap. Every restuarant is some noisy overcrowded hell hole now, with either a blaring radio of the best of today's crap and yesteryear's shit, or an idiot box there to pacify all the cows while they sit there and wait for more intelligent animals to be fried up and served to them.

The best restuarant? The fucking J-Mart a block from my house.

Sgt. Peffer's in Omaha. Best little hole in wall around these parts.

A spot called Clark's. We usually gather for 24 hour breakfast and Sienfeld-esque antics. Plus, the waitresses tend to have big bootys.
