Jauronimo Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 If anyone is going to the Super Bowl this year, I have no shortage of recommendations.
ExiledInIllinois Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) You live in munster? i would probably spend every waking minute at 3 Floyds Brewing if I lived there I live on the Illiana line, Illinois side, just south and west of St.John, IN... Stone's through from Munster... My doctor is in Munster/Hammond/St.John... Work is even closer... Got co-workers that home brew... Small, self stuff... They are in Hegewisch (Chicago neighborhood, southeast side on Indiana line...where my work is)... As home brewers, they love 3 Floyds too... Brings attention to area... :-) Edited January 19, 2017 by ExiledInIllinois
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 Hmm no, never been there. Just looked at the food pics on yelp and it looks really good. I'm a north-towner so honestly I rarely make it south of downtown. Might have to put it on my list tho. Thanks. With all the new local places opening up around here, there's so many places to try. It's awesome. You won't regret it. The weck is the best I've ever had. And I've had a LOT of weck.
boyst Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 eball will know it, but it's not right near me. i've been there once, but you make your own hibachi in Durham. you select your meats and such make one bowl or two at a buffet style place. its in front of a harris teeter and burger bach. Love the Oasis. We've taken that boat twice (three cruises total in my lifetime). You're absolutely right -- not crowded at all despite the number of passengers. We also did the unlimited booze thing.
Wooderson Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 You won't regret it. The weck is the best I've ever had. And I've had a LOT of weck. How does it compare to Bar Bill? That was the best weck I've ever had.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 How does it compare to Bar Bill? That was the best weck I've ever had. Favorably, I thought. And at a cheaper price.
MarkAF43 Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 You won't regret it. The weck is the best I've ever had. And I've had a LOT of weck. I live about a mile from there and haven't went. Anytime we've considered it, it's been packed.
MarkyMannn Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) Ever try Potter's Field in S. Buffalo? May be the best local bar I've ever walked into. Essential Buffalo. You won't regret it. The weck is the best I've ever had. And I've had a LOT of weck. Potters is good, I'm bigger on Blackthorn on Seneca St. How does it compare to Bar Bill? That was the best weck I've ever had. F BarBills! Went there with a group and my own order never comes out. Waitress was a lazy POS. Walking out and mgr chasing me with my order in a bag: " You owe us for your order" F Y ! Anyone in NY, with Cuomo raising salaries, notice restaurants are dramatically raising prices or cutting WAY back on offerings? Mulberry must have cut their dinner servings in half, Arriba cut sides and raised all drinks about $5. From about $8 to $13-14 now. Two of my favorites, and not going back any more Edited January 20, 2017 by MarkyMannn

Food in a bag and expected you to pay! Wow... They really messed up, right? Anyway... I go here for Mexican: http://www.chicagoheightsburritostation.com Try "al pastor"... On tacos, etc... It is awesome: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_pastor
Augie Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I live about a mile from there and haven't went. Anytime we've considered it, it's been packed. No one goes there anymore, it's too crowded. (Thanks Yogi. . )
CountDorkula Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 SW Atalnta. Taco Mac for the beer. They have 200 beers on tap at all times. Food is average. McGuires in Senoia, GA. Irish pub. Duffs just opened up here, so go there for the Buffalo atmosphere.
ExiledInIllinois Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Just recently when I was in BFLo... We went to Ditondo's for lunch: http://stepoutbuffalo.com/theres-reason-ditondos-buffalo-classic/ Only open for lunch and dinner on Fridays... So hurry, today's Friday! ;-)
MarkyMannn Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Think of it as a weight loss program... Just kidding. Sorry for being snarky... No offense. :-) Actually I probably should get the half size. Bummer Just recently when I was in BFLo... We went to Ditondo's for lunch: http://stepoutbuffalo.com/theres-reason-ditondos-buffalo-classic/ Only open for lunch and dinner on Fridays... So hurry, today's Friday! ;-) I work diagonally across the street from DiTondo's. Its good. A lot of people like it better than Chefs right down the street

A lot of people like it better than Chefs right down the street Chef's gets slacked at times... But I love it. Best time I remember, we were in BFLo when Flyers played Sabres in playoffs... Yeah, remember playoffs. ? I think that was "hole in net series (LeClair)"... Anyway, the whole Flyers' bus pulls up and team walks in to dine... Right then and there my 1 and a half year old son knew who the enemy was! ;-)
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 By local, do you mean where I live currently, or in Buffalo? Currently (Houston, TX): Joe's BBQ. Kelley's. Basically any hole in the wall Tex-Mex place. Whataburger (chain, but just a regional chain.) Buffalo- I like Steve's Pig and Ox Roast in Lackawanna. Nine-Eleven (name is coincidental) in South Buffalo for wings. A little hole in the wall place called Texas Red Hots on Abbott Road near the Lackawanna/Buffalo border. Hot dogs are good, but the Texas sauce is the best I've ever had.
Bullpen Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 There's really no place locally. I've said it many times before, if Colorado Springs (east of I-25) was a restaurant if would be Chili's or Applebee's. In Denver, I would say The Fort is tops, followed by The Buckhorn Exchange, Govnr's Park Tavern and Bull and Bush Brewery.
Dante Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Love this place. It's small. We like to eat at the little bar area because the kitchen is right there where you can watch. Danville, Ca http://mangia-mi.com/contact.html
