let's eat

Kailani hosts Aloha Friday each Friday. I encourage you to visit all the participants and answer their questions. It's fun and you may make a new blogging friend. My question this week is actually one that was asked of me during my blogging anniversary question extravaganza (by Short Stop). I thought it was a good one to ask.

What is your favorite restaurant?
And what do you usually order?

My answer was Red Lobster with popcorn shrimp being my favorite. But since I get to answer the question again, I'm going to give my close second. That would be Jim 'n Nick's BBQ and I almost always order their Pig in the Garden Salad. It's a salad - one of the best, most flavorful salads I've ever had - that comes with a choice of meat. I get beef brisket on the side. All meals come with these scrumptious cheddar-corn muffins. And then I usually top it off with a piece of their lemon icebox pie. I eat half and and take the other half home for a treat later.

Now I've made myself hungry and it's too late at night to eat =(

My favorite restaurant is called Irifuni. It's a little hole in the wall place but they make the best shrimp tempura and garlic ahi. Not to mention the chocolate strawberry crepes! Yum!

Does Taco Bell count as a restaurant? I love the combination burritos.
I have several favorites however at this moment it would have to be Mimi’s CafĂ©. The food is delicious and I love the ambiance.

I don't know that I have one favorite restuarant - I have lots of favorites! At Cracker Barrel, I always get the hash brown casserole. It's heart-attack on a plate, but boy! It is good!

There is a local restaurant that is very upscale that I love. It is called Aspen's Steakhouse in Mareitta, Georgia. I usually order Steak, Creamed Jalepeno Corn, and Asparagus. Also, I love to get their Lobster Bisque. Of course, we do not go very often but when we do it is awesome!

The cheddar biscuits at Red Lobster could keep me in maternity clothes for life! Love those things.

Favorite Restaurant: Outback

What do I order: The Outback Special - 9 ounce; medium w/ extra spices. House salad - no croutons or tomatoes; ranch dressing, on the side. Baked potato, just butter and a side of broccoli.

And, if I have room...Chocolate Thunder from Down Under.

Well, you asked! :0)

Yummy! That sounds delicous! We've ate at Red Lobster a few times. But I haven't eaten their in years.
I have lots of favorites too: Applebee's, Perkins, Kraker Barrell, any Chinese or Mexican resturant.
I know I just like to eat out...we don't very often though.
I also like subway subs.
