Official "good places to eat" thread.

I'd gladly support a CT/pizza get together at Modern.

If you're ever in the San Diego north county area go to Mariachi's for a Carne Asada burrito then right across the street to Los Mariscos for some rolled tacos.

Eat them together. You won't be sorry.

Thats one of the first things I will be doing when I move to AZ is head out to San Diego. Haven't been there since I was a young child and I can imagine the mexican food is second to none.

2 of us....

"regular" restaurants: $50+

"fancy" restaurants: $100-200

NYC Chinatown: $15

Keep in mind that we don't buy alcoholic drinks, but if we do, that would add at least $20-50.

Out of town (usually some overrated by name joint) 300
taco bell 10
stouffers french bread pizza (pepperoni in the toster oven) best 4 dollars ever.

PS, Figure is because she insists on drinking the most expensive glass of wine and I usually put down 3-4 bombay's.

I'm going to be in Ft Worth next week...any suggestions? It's a bachelor party and wedding, so bar suggestions are more than welcome.

YES YES YES

For eating go to Pappacito's, as for bars, I would recommend anywhere but straight downtown Dallas.

I went to Dallas for the first time two weeks ago after years of suffering in San Antonio and Houston.

I <3 Dallas/Ft Wayne.

Ft. Worth, like I said earlier in the thread, should include visits to Fuzzy's and Kincaid's. I don't know the bar scene too well there, but would guess the bars next to Fuzzy's (across from TCU) for cheap and downtown for expensive. The downtown atmosphere in FW is actually far nicer than anywhere in Dallas, including Deep Ellum and Lower Greenville.

I'll work on a list of local places here, in case anyone makes the pilgrimage to Yoshi's Island.

Unfortunately, I've yet to be blown away by much here in the Triangle. It's like there's an above average selection of decent to good, but little truly great. My favorites here so far are Kanki for Japanese and Sushi, Jarpur for Indian, and Dockside for cheap, huge plates of fried seafood. Thai House (?) in Raleigh is off the fucking hook though.

Granted, I have yet to eat at several of the notable restaraunts here like Mama Dip's and that Ethiopian place that's supposed to be really good. Speaking of, Yoshi, we need to grab a bite real soon.

Charlotte, on the other hand, has some banging cuisine. Ru San's is some of the best sushi I've ever had, priced well to boot. Hotel Charlotte has excellent creole ettoufe's and she-crab soup, as well as a great beer selection. The Dish has great 'new-southern' cuisine. Sadly my all-time favorite eatery, the King & I, is gone but their legacy lives on in ThaiThai Takeout. Many excellent new restaurants have been popping up as well now that Johnson-Wales is based there.

In Wilmington, I suggest Flaming Amy's and Fantastic Pizza.
