I love Crechales. They have great steaks and seafood. But right now my go to place is Yoko's Japanese/Hibachi in Brandon. They have the best fried rice and hibachi shrimp I have ever eaten. Is it lunch time yet? :D

To each his own, but I would not feed Walkers to my dog. I have had a couple of bad experiences there, but a lot of people love it.

For steaks I side with Shapley's over Tico's.
Fratesi's for Italian, Amerigos is good but I like simple red sauce and not all the other stuff added to pasta.
Sal and Phils for Royal Reds. Service has been pretty slow last couple of times.
Soulshine Pizza

Had a terrible experience with sal and phils. Was eating crawfish with some friends watching a game and a LIVE cricket was in his crawfish. The owner said "sorry" they come in the sacks with the crawfish. Wouldn't even replace the platter of crawfish. We said no stupie, this one was alive. He said "oh well" .. :twisted: :twisted: never been back and never will.

The d*mn crawfish tails were covered with a shell. Wasn't like the cricket was tap dancing on the actual meat yall were eating.

Sounds to me like yall were a bunch of f'n pansies... :D

This is what I was thinking! If you ain't got twigs, leaves, hydrila, etc. in 'da pot, you miss out on flavor! I do not think the cricket made it through the cooking process alive! :shock:

Might belong in the delta posts, but my family had chips and Dip at the CowPen in Lake Village (Rest in Ashes :( ). THere was what I call a Daddy Long legs in there and the waitress didn't do anything about it but say something like "but it is not a roach."

Look ladies :P , it was the fact of the matter. He's digging in his crawfish and a live cricket jumps out. It wasn't boiled in it. It came from the filth in the back. By the way, how do you girls eat your crawfish?, you don't suck the heads and put you rmouth on the shell? I think I know who the pansies are.. :D :D :D Just kiddin....

It was more principle than anything, Not that this thing was going to hurt anyone but hell, the LEAST they could have done was bring him another platter and say oooops.. Have you ever seen soemone send back a plate of food because of a hair? It won' tkill you either but it's the principle.. I am telling as many people this story as I can. CHITTY service

Can I get an AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????
