I tend to not eat out, and when I do it's fast food because it...well, used to be affordable. When I did eat out more it was always mom and pop places. The food is always better!

You can tell me I'm basic.. I love Cheesecake Factory sooo much

Chen's Garden ( Chinese Restaurant)

• Choy's Garden
• Kohiro (amazing sushi place)
• ät. (Swedish word for eat, super imaginative, I know )
• Be My Guest (great African food)

Favorite fast food place is a Swedish chain called Max. Awesome name.

Oh god Waffle House. That's above Whataburger for me.

Dinky little diners rule.

I love diners.

There's a franchise here in STL called Courtesy Diner and it's great. DC metro area had a diner joint called Bob and Ediths that I went to all the time, too.

Other than McDonalds and Burger King I don't often eat at chains.

When I get takeout, we go local and use a company called "Square Pizza". Original.

We also use an Indian takeaway called "Shalimar" and a Chinese called "Royal Garden".

 

[The Eye in the Sky!]

I don't eat any of those. I mainly go to local, independently owned restaurants... unless my kids want McNuggets.

The only chains that I have ordered from or dined at in the last few years are 99 Restaurant and Red Robin. If I need a quck grab and go, the supermarkets near my work and home have $5 subs all the time. Wegmans has killer poke bowls, too.

I'm jealous of all of you who have a Wrgmans nearby.

 

[TD]

I don't eat out often. I won't share exact names as they are local businesses.

But:
- A locally owned thai restaurant, owner moved from thailand 4 years ago
- An all you can eat sushi/chinese restaurant
- A pizza place that has received multiple awarda from pizza magazines
- A locally owned polish Schnitzel restaurant

In terms of fast food chains: Dominos, A&W, Popeyes

It's right next to my work so no one does fast food for lunch since the prepared meals section there is huge and fresh, but it can get expensive. They have a dedicated charcuterie stand that you can build a board right there, too. They also have a model train driving on tracks hanging from the ceiling. It's the best.

Yeah, preprepared grocery store meals are almost always expensive.

I like the places that have a food bar.

You are literally the first person outside of my offline friend group that has recognized the place.

It is the one place we  always make sure to go to when we're in the city.
