That makes sense.

Eat Rite is the best, although I don't know if that qualifies.

jim next time you get to St. Louis for a game, check out a place called "The White Knight." Also a greasy spoon diner like Eat Rite. Good greasy burgers & fries. Kind of off the beaten path from the stadium. It's located at 18th & Olive.

I'll meet you there. It's a few blocks from my house and the Tap Room.

Me too. Although it's more than a few blocks from my house!

Not sure I want to sign up for a greasy spoon diner, but I'll meet up with you guys! Two of my faves that I've met in person from GRB!

For the Chik-Fil-A fans, I take it ones in the Midwest aren't nearly as crowded as the ones in the South? I kid you not, in Columbia SC every Chik-Fil-A you drive past will have roughly 50 or more cars there. Literally every parking space in the entire lot will be full and the drive-thru lane (or lanes) willl be completely backed up all the way around the building and out of the parking lot onto the road itself.

It is truly a marvel to behold. I'm not even talking lunch or dinner rush hour times. If you drive past at off-peak hours like 2:30pm, there will still be 50+ vehicles there. It is [expletive] nuts.

I was in SC over Thanksgiving and was blown away by the fact that 3 out of 4 fast food chains are fried chicken places. Maybe that's hyperbole, but still... Bojangles, Zaxby's, and Chik-Fil-A are copious down there. And since I'd never been to Bojangles or Zaxby's, I gave them both a shot. Bojangles was ok, but I don't feel the need to go back. I thought it was pretty comparable to Church's or Lee's in that regard. Zaxby's, on the other hand... I loved the hell out of that.

Culver's and Wendy's are my kings of fast food, in that order. Culver's has cheese curds, for [expletive]'s sake! How is that not EVERYONE'S top of the list?

Then there's a big middling mass of stuff that I'm ok with- Hardee's, BK, Jack in the Crack, Taco Smell, DQ...

White Castle and McDonald's are my bottom of the barrel. I like the McDonald's breakfast stuff, but the McD's lunch/dinner items actually started making me ill. I pretty much have to be blackout drunk to eat White Castle.

And this is why we will be BFFs until the end of time.

Cheese curds are teh awesome.

[jim]

I don't trust cheese curds.

What's the worst that can happen?

Cheese curds are the only tolerable thing from Wisconsin.
