Expensive restaurants.

I hate getting a menu and not knowing what anything on it actually is. You really know you're in trouble when there are no prices listed and the waitress mentions that the special contains half-organic boontaki chicken flown in special from Nepal that morning...

If a dinner for 2 is so expensive that I have to leave a $30 tip I would actually like to enjoy the food for a fucking change.

Expensive restaurant rarely seems to mean delicious food.

They just mean rich people can go and flaunt their money around everywhere.

Haha man $30 tip for two? You could get a good dinner for two for less than that. I've never been in one of those really expensive restaurants but all the food looks weird and so little portion. I like alot of my stuff plain tho so maybe that's why it doesn't interest me.

Yeah even if the food is good, how are you supposed to enjoy it when you know youre dropping a fortune on it!

Dude....ruby tuesdays.....that's as high class as im going.

Depends where you go. There are a lot of good restaurants in Seattle that are expensive but good too. Or...you could go to Beth's Cafe on Aurora Best breakfast ever. But seriously, try the Dahlia Lounge or some of Tom Douglas' restaurants. Luckily for me, my family really likes to eat out so I've been to a ton of good restaurants around town.

I have had my share of expensive restaurants, but the most expensive thing that was the wine...

Those restaurants sure do have EXPENSIVE wines.

so does this mean i have to cancel our dinner reservations Metal? *sad face*

LOL

I see Ruby Tuesday's commercials here in Oklahoma from time to time, but I've never seen one here.

I had to fly to Cincy a year ago and we saw one near our hotel. Stopped by and tried it out. Not bad. Reminded me of Chili's.

Ruby Tuesday's are ok I guess.


I've only eaten at a place like Metal describes twice and its just not my thing. Once at a french place, and then an Italiam place....... Food was ok I guess but the atmosphere sucked!

We were sent to Boca Raton Florida for a business trip. My wife's boss told us to live it up on his tab. So we took advantage of it. We were at a very rich resort. They had resturants all over the thing.

We went to a steak house because I wanted a place I could actually know what I'm eating. I noticed they had lobster on the menu. I had never had lobster so I ordered it.

Turns out the lobster tasted awful. Maybe it's an aquired taste. My son ordered a steak. It was dry and nasty.

Got the bill and saw that my lobster alone cost $130!!! It wasnt even my money and I was floored. The steaks were around $80. The tab ended up being near $400 total. My wife had steak too and my daughter had some kind of pasta. And then the drinks.

I didnt tip them, lol!!!

Holy shit $130 for lobster!? $80 for steak!?

Damn... sucks that it wasnt even tasty....

Lobster is a ripoff, I love the taste but I would never pay that much for something I could eat in two bites.

Lobster is the most overrated food ever.

I'd rather pay $15 and eat a delicious bucket of clams.

Now I know. And knowing is half the battle!

Is is sad that I would rather have a really good pizza and a cold beer versus going somewhere for a $50.00 steak or whatever?????

lol... I'd actually rather have a bowl of cereal over most meals. Simple, cheap, and satisfying. I may pick up the variety pack of little cereal boxes just to make it interesting.

If you're the one paying, no that's not sad.

But if money isn't an issue I'd take a $50 steak over a pizza any day. Unless maybe it was a steak pizza.

HAHA A Steak pizza might be good!


Hell even if I am not paying and I am out with the boss, or on a company thing I would rather talk over beer and pizza! Easier to talk that way I think!

I actually would enjoy a pizza over a steak too. I grew up in a poor family so steak was never an option. Pizza is in my veins.

Not the I am some steak expert but I have had my fair share. Hell forget the fancy steakhouses!!! THe best steak I have EVWER had and remember to this day was when I was 16 or 17 and went camping with some friends. I bought some cheap steaks ans we cooked them over an open flame campfire!

BEST FUCKING STEAK EVER!!!!!!!!!!

We have a steak house in OKC that is considered one of the best steakhouses in the nation. I went there for the first time about 3 months ago.

I have never had a better steak. That place earned it's reputation.

Did they have steak pizza there??? I am likeing the sound of this steak pizza thing! HAHA

Not that I know of. I believe it's just steak.

THis thread sucks as I had some lame ass lean cuisine meal for lunch..... one hour later and I am hungry...... Gonna be a longggggg day!

anywhere with decent steak and chips is good for me

we have a lush pub in dorset that does 14oz T-bone steaks. and we meet up with relatives from up north there every year. my yearly 14oz steak

good steak = good pub.

I had spaghettios!

HAHA I havn't spaghettios in ages!!!!!!!


Yesterday I had a can of soup.......


Typically I always have a big lunch but have been trying to cut back.

This is why I'm happy that I married a chef. He can just cook all of this stuff for me for like...an eight of the price xD

I still love me some spaghettios though

I was made fun of because I was eating a kiddie meal. I told them I'm dieting. Spaghettios may or may not be very healthy, but it was a small meal. That's what I was shooting for.

HAHA I can see small but not healthy....


I.......NEED.......A......SNACK.........


GRRRR

I had honey nut chex mix and oreos for lunch.

Can you tell it's a lazy day?

ANd of course you have to bring up Oreos.........

*stomach grows*

Haha! Sorry. Now I'm hungry too, gotta find something for lunch...hmm...

I still have not had lunch...

Lol I eat pizza probably 4 out of the 7 days of the week. I love pizza. But im a simple eater. I can eat the samething everyday of the week all day. And yes ive done it before

I'd rather eat a fucking diaper than a can of spaghettios.

AAAARRRGGGGG THe guy brought cookies in! WTF! There goes my healty lunch!!!!

Cookies aren't a healthy lunch!?

This reminds me of the "Bread makes you fat!?!?" line from Scott Pilgrim. I love that movie.

mwahahahaha.

Sometimes what's in my kids diaper looks like spaghettios

I'm a simple eater too, but I'm always down for something fancier once in a while. Most of the time though, pizza or a burger will satisfy me.

Yeah there are some $5 meals that i enjoy as much as a $30 dollar steak.
(Chipotle, burger King, noodles & company...) yeah

omg Chipotle is one of my favorite places to get a vegetarian burrito. so damn tasty.
