it depends where you live. if youre in a medium to large city theres really no excuse to eat at a middle tier chain restaurant in fact they dont exist in the city limits where im at because they cant compete it's mediocre italian food it might be considered good if it were cheaper

If so, then yes that is a terrible restaurant. The Cubelodyte posted:At least the money spent on the local place probably stays local.

I'm not going to get into a whole 'how to cook' thing here but bro table salt is not sufficient replacement for proper seasoning. If you're not salting your pasta water you're doing it wrong. Period.

MISSED CONNECTION Your cart: rotisserre chicken, 3 boxes of milk, 1 frozen 5 lb. bag of broccoli My cart: rotisserre chicken, chicken thigh pack, 36 eggs We met in the refrigerator section. You had your head in the fridge, getting out the Kirkland Signature greek yogurt. I waited, as I needed to grab a twin pack of yogurt, too. You held the door open, looked at my cart, then looked at me. We nodded at each other knowingly. This was the place to get great deals on macros. If you ever need a spotter at the gym, respond with the color of my costco freezer bag

The guy handing out the holiday meatballs in Kirkland sauce wasn't ready for the holiday stampeders, I think he died in my place. RIP, meatball guy.

Lol if you think cooking is some kind of art full of opinions and free spirits. Art doesn't exist. It's all hard science, and the best are so especially skilled and drilled in the rules that they can make fools think art is happening. Like you think the dude wrapping his polish up in his pizza slice is some fatlord savant, but he's hitting all the basic rules of culinary excellence.

Costco should just create a side bar area and put up their TVs to show the sports games and serve hard drinks at discounted prices and in bulk along with the food. "I'll have a shor....uhh...give me the 56 liter Christmas Ale and a pack of your 5 whole Turkeys in Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce. Yes I'm here by myself. Churro for dessert."
