Favorite place to eat?

AdamJoshua · 10-14-2015, 08:05 PM

Can be a place long gone or somewhere new. For me Dragon Lady's Den, THE Chinese place back home, I hear the finally closed about 15 yrs ago. My dad had the cig machine in the bar here, we would service it on Saturdays and always get lunch, I'd get shrimp w/lobster sauce, pork fried rice and eggroll, oh and bbq ribs to die for... and they had duck sauce, which on the West Coast isn't that easy to find. If I could go to any place I wanted to eat one meal it would be here.

The menu is a riot, but I suppose 40-50 years ago it was more the norm.

Went there just last month, it was fantastic. Best BBQ I've ever had, served in a gas station or not. They changed the name to Joe's Kansas City BBQ. That was fairly recent according to some of my wife's family that lives out that way.

My favorite place that is close to me would be 8th Ave Wing Shack in Greeley, CO. It really is pretty much a run down shack that makes you wonder if you should get food there, but the wings are amazing.

Here in Sarasota, there's a little old dive, the Old Packinghouse. Been around since the 19-teens as a...packinghouse! Great Redneck-Cuban food!

Adam, that flyer is a trip!

For me Annabelle Lee's here in Baltimore is my current top spot. Small corner pub with an Edgar Allan Poe theme. The duck fat fries are out of this world.

We've got a lot of great local seafood places around here, so I can't pick just one. But when we want oysters we go to a place called Mikey's. It's a bit of a dive but damn, they do oysters well and have a large beer selection. In season we can get oysters on the half shell for $5/dozen.

Easily Barnaby's Pizza in Milwaukee in the early '70's. I can still taste it...

I read they've resurrected the brand somewhere in Ill, but I don't know if the pizza is the same. I may have to check it out some day.

I've been digging this niche Hunan hand pulled noodle place down the street from my house (I go 1-2x a week). The do a black fungus with mashed garlic cold app that is incredible. A spicy boiled lamb (ground cumin lamb) with hot oil hand pulled noodles is just wicked awesome!

Actually, I think I'll go there today for lunch. Thank you thread!
