Wanted to get away from ingredients for a round and do a theme. This does not need to be food an actual gas station you know sells necessarily, but more.. If you owned a gas station, what homemade concoction would [b]you[/b] be famous for? No set parameters. Cook what you want, and the votes w...
I have no idea how they're doing overall, but they've never been dead when I've gone. My thought was that the change in rules was because too many people ready to spend money were either [a] showing up to sit at the bar without a reservation or [b] showing up with reservations without "proper at...
I’ve gone a few times this year for various things. I still like the vibe at Ruth’s more just on a personal level, but still have yet to have anything remotely bad at SC. ...

I think that could be fun too. Categories are sometimes tricky because someone will make a plate of like spaghetti and be like "they have that on the hot line at my gas station" :Lol: But the votes kinda take care of that sort of thing anyway. I'll make a thread tomorrow. Hobo - I enjoy a pick...

If any of these stand out, please don't be shy. I don't want to pick a total dud on accident. [img]https://i.imgur.com/d6IxeMh.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/fmBBoXy.jpg[/img]...

[quote] I think some posters are a bit intimidated, but they shouldn't be.[/quote] Absolutely. If you look back at our winners, the most complex dish is only sometimes the winner. I try to vote based partially on the skill level and creativity that I know was required for the dish, but I also fac...

I will say.. I still have a huge list saved in my notes app of ingredients and categories we haven't done, so it's not for lack of ingredients over here....

That is so bizarre. This time last year, I was itching to go out there and try it because they had so many awesome looking products. I wonder what made them change? My brother was in there nearly weekly and they seemed to get plenty business per him....
I don't hate the idea. We don't have focus time as a company, but I absolutely created it for myself. You want a call? Email me and arrange a time that is good for us both. Calling me out of the blue when I'm likely deep into working on something is honestly kinda entitled to me, but maybe th...

Good question. To be honest, I don't know when exactly that time comes, but I do agree there comes a time where the kids can manage it on their own. I don't think it should be a rule until they're 18. Most schools these days serve the sunbutter alternative (PB sandwiches don't even exist on schoo...
