Favorite place to eat? - Page 2

Favorite ever is probably Rosarios or La Gloria in San Antonio. Mexican is my favorite and both these places do it up right. I got around pretty well in my 4 years in Texas. These were always my favorites.

Hey, I’ve actually eaten there!!! Great place but I would also include La Panaderia which I really enjoyed the Ranchero Eggs Benedict and the coffeee was excellent.

In Sacramento two choices for me.

Crepeville for breakfast and Mikuni’s for sushi.

Yumm.

My favorite in my whole life, and I'd get up and go any time, is Alabama Jack's out in the swamp in Key Largo.
There's Alabama Jack's, and then there's everything else.
We have some exceptional restaurants all around Cleveland, still not close.
CONCH FRITTERS!!!

For Chinese food, Din Tai Fung is out of this world. There are a handful locations on the west coast and throughout Asia. I have been to a few of them in Asia and it's just beyond words good. I am sure some West Coast member have surly at at one before?

Haven't, maybe I should have though. Saw one Saturday at the mall. It was packed!

Favorite dim sum place is, The Kitchen (thanks, Dic)

Favorite hole in the wall is, Super Stars. Place looks like it receives an F in health quality and it probably does. Food is decent for $3 and some change you can get some garlic fried rice, and egg and two pieces of longanisa. I usually get two orders

There's not one Din Tai Fung in the world that does not have a line all day long. You pick what you want to order while in line and you give the hostess your order before you sit down. Best way to order! You'll be in heaven if you like Dim Sum. Din Tai Fung is considered one of the best restaurants in the World.

Have you been to Annie Gunn's in STL? It's an excellent steak house. Also, in Bellville, there's a bbq joint called Beast Craft and it is really good as well.

In Chicago, Trattoria No 10, Spiaggia/Cafe Spiaggia, and Shaw's Crab House are my go-to places.

Added Annie Gunns to the list. I’m in STL probably once a month so I’ll hit it up my next trip down

Smoked ribeye and bread pudding are top notch and their drink/wine list is pretty impressive.
