Aww- I hate being far away from something I want! I can't wait to go to Massachusetts in the beginning of December- there are so many places i want to eat!

lol I haven't eaten at a Carl's jr in forever. I'm much more into mexican food these days! Give me a place with some good tacos.

Lol, I have Taco overload here... what I really miss are some restaurant chains that just aren't in my town. Like Togo's (sandwiches) and even places like Olive Garden.

We have fabulous restaurants here, in fact, eating out is one of our top nightlife activities here

And whenever guests visit or former residents return it usually includes a requested tour of favorite places to eat.
There are just a few comfort classics I miss from the Bay Area where I grew up.

oh.. and Sonic keeps advertizing their shakes etc... and we don't have a Sonic's in town.. nearest is like 40+ minutes away.. its just CRUEL I tell you!
(ditto for Olive Garden)

ah DH and I always stop and Weinersnitzel when we pass by it outside of town because we miss it and don't have one here either,

cherry limeade with vanilla ice cream. yuummm. Makes me want to go to Sonic.

I'll just have to comfort myself that you don't know the joys of Blenders in the Grass (way better smoothie place than any other I've seen)

Blenders in the grass? LOL. sounds like a healthy raw food place.

lisaf · Oct 27th, 2010, 16:14 PM

its just a smoothie place... and trust me, their peanut butter smoothie is NOT health food

They do have healthy options like swapping out regular milk for soy etc...
But I find their flavors so much more simple and uncomplicated than Jamba Juice's ... in a VERY good way.
And they have about 2x the flavors and are cheaper.

luckyme225 · Oct 27th, 2010, 16:21 PM

cheap is good, especially when saving for a baby

Mmmmm Sonic! They have the best ice cubes

I know that sounds weird, but I have a "thing" with chewing the ice after I finish the drink.. and they have those teeny square ice cubes that are really crunchy

And Olive garden.. and perkins.. oh what I wouldn't give for a medium rare steak from Perkins..

Overall I'm just tired of Doner Kabobs & German food, I'll never take American fast food for granted again when we get back!
