Got one of those down here a few years ago... probably have driven past it 100 times but never stopped in. Is the fish fry any good?

Raising Canes is supposedly very good, but I have never been.
Portillo's i have been to once, had an excellent Chicago Dog

Also, i think mainly VA and NC is Smithfield Chicken and BBQ. Very good fried chicken too
Got a Portillo's down here a couple of years ago... love it. Kind of like Ted's at twice the price, I don't mind paying more there.

As I’ve stated before, horseradish in my house was not a garnish, it was a Klingon pain ritual. “Only a level spoonful?! You are without honour!”
Not only easy to grow, it will easily spread. An acquaintance suggested grow it in cut down barrels.
You are right, it does spread. We had a lot of land though and just had it off to the side, didn't matter how much it spread. Good idea with the half barrel for people in neighborhoods though.
That is one crop that you don't have to worry about bugs or animals messing with.

I just buy decent Kaiser rolls, brush them with butter then dip them in salt and caraway seeds, then throw them in the oven for a few minutes.
I'm about 5.5 hours east of Buffalo. I might be able to find Miller's in a butcher shop, but definitely not in my local supermarket, unfortunately.
At one of the tailgates last year, @Cripple Creek made beef on weck. @BringBackFergy assembled one for me and loaded it with Miller's. First bite was a shocker!!!! Great stuff.
Thought for sure they would have it... they Show it at the top, but only Redlinski's... which is probably pretty decent. https://www.buffalofoods.com/ecommerce/condiments-sauce/horseradish.html
We used to grow our own in WNY (funny but I graduated from Attica high school, how I know your location addy) and processed it at the end of summer/beginning of fall. Everything was done outside... everybody crying too. Very easy to grow btw.

Miller's is the shizzit. Can't buy it in my area, unfortunately, but I've found other horseradish that packs a punch. I love making beef on weck at home. Last time was Super Bowl Sunday.
It really is... blow your head off. But, it isn't kept in the condiment aisles... could that be why you're not finding it? Just like Maries isn't either. Millers is refridgerated, usually by hotdogs, ham, that kind of stuff.
Depending on where you live... I know its not Attica State Prison lol... any bakery worth its "salt" should be able to make you the rolls. Like I mentioned above, we have Publix here that will. Would think Wegmans would do the same as well.

A Zaxby’s opened a mile from my house 2-3 years ago. I drive past it almost every day. I have yet to stop. For some reason it just doesn’t appeal to me, and I’ve never been inside. I can’t explain it.
You aren't missing much, like I said its ok... I went once and wasn't wowed.
I took a little look and see that you have 3 Captain D's in your area. Now That's a place I still wish was still close to me... worth going out of your way for.

I remember him from the Exorcist for sure but more so from The Greatest Story Ever Told... my Mom loved that movie.

Found a new one just yesterday. Mrs.C#81 & I celebrated 40 years of wedded bliss this weekend and we were looking for a new, nice place for a Sunday beer & meal.
In the heart of St. Augustine’s historical district. Why? Cuz the owner is from Buffalo. Beef on Kimmelweck every Sunday!!
I laughed... clicked on your link and it brought up the places around here. You must have a Publix near you, you're just up the state... if you give them a day or two notice they will make Kimmelweck rolls for you. Beef on Weck is easy to make really, not much rocket science involved. I like the Millers horseradish over any other, it'll clear your sinuses out in no time.

I always hit Earl of Sandwich any time I am in a city that has one.
I also have been thinking about Haddie B's hot chicken since going to Nashville for the Bills game last fall. That stuff was delicious.
Every SU game I have watched this season had commercials for a fast food place called Zaxbys. Never heard of it before that but the food looked pretty good, at least on TV.
Any one of those 3 coming up North to WNY or CNY would be great.
We have Zaxby's down here... its ok, nothing great nothing bad.

Whataburger. Anytime I go to Texas, I make sure to get at least one stop in.
Had one in Plant City Fl back in the 80's... just off exit 11 on I-4... would stop in on the way home a few times a week.

Still a few of these around... wish the one Right Here hadn't left. Lots of memories.

The best fried chicken I've ever had... and I do like KFC, but theirs is better. Overall menu is better too, This is the Orlando menu but there is one around 12 miles away from Tampa.

Your host! Now that's a name from childhood.
Glad someone else remembers. According to this the last ones shut down in 93. Never had a bad experience at any of them... liked the quaint style and the food was always good.

Publix does make a pretty good sub, but it’s a bit of a hassle. Big parking lots and long lines at the places around me. I’m kind of mad at Publix right now because I realized they’ve been ripping me off for decades. Bananas there are 20% more expensive that Whole Foods. Got skirt steak for fajita’s yesterday at Krogers for $7.99/lb. The skirt steak at Publix, you ask? It’s $15.99/lb. Cod was $6.99 at Kroger and $14.99 at Publix. Milk? Yep, $1.49 vs $2.49. I’m not a “shopper”, but once I became aware of this it became a sore spot. I’ve been almost exclusively a Publix shopper for a quarter of a century!
Anyway, the #5 mini on white, Mike’s Way with chips and a drink was in the regular rotation when I worked near one.
It depends on the time of day I suppose. Publix is a place you have to keep your eye out for sure. Still, they will pretty much do anything to please the customer. A month ago I went on over looking for turkey thighs. They had none. Butcher comes to me and says give me ten minutes.. he took a whole turkey out of the case, did his "butchering", and presented me with two perfect ones... for around $4.00, way cheaper than if they had had them in stock.
Still hitting that Aldi?

I don't think I've ever made the trip back to WNY without going to Teds, over 25 years now.
Foot long with everything except onions which I don't like. But guess what - Ted's onion rings are the exception because they are awesome!
Same here... used to be Your Host but now it's Ted's and Gabriels Gate. Kind of lucky that there is a Casa Di Pizza (Elmwood strip) down here... they do Sahlens just like Ted's, right down to the Webers mustard.

Jersey Mike’s makes me wonder how Subway still exists.
Publix makes me wonder how Jersey Mike's exists. The wife went to mikes a couple of months ago for a sub and it was $11. Said she'll never go back and I don't blame her one bit.
The Subway by me is pretty decent actually... maybe I'm lucky and have one of the good ones. Herb n Cheese roll is the choice here.

Used to have Dog n Suds and Arthur Treachers back home... don't have them here either but I think DNS is still around and AT is being sold at other restaurants.
Have a 5 guys 1,200 feet away... have no desire to way over pay for a burger, never gone there. There is a Moe's next door to them, haven't been in at least 10 years. I'll take Steak n Shake all day long for a good burger and there are so many mom n pop authentic Mexican places around that make Moe's look and taste like dog *****.

I remember another one from over there... think the name was Bing Cherry. Always had to be right and tried to own the internet. Funny fellow, had great jokes.
Glad to see that Goldenwheels still posts.

But the question is - was Gregggg Pastore TOLD to shut it down by McDermott?McD could give two ***** about a message board.

Make all the jokes you want, but I’m getting to the bottom of this story.I'm pretty sure it was Gregg Pastore who made the decision to shut it down. No one had any idea at all, even the lead mod at the time Zman.
What they Should have done is announced it with one day left for people to post, create their contacts with friends, etc. Also, the Sim league lost everything they had worked for Years on... although a couple of them told me that they had Some but not all backed up. Then, they should have let it go for a couple of weeks as readable without the ability to post so people could further salvage what they could.
Tom Donahoe nearly had the place shut down many years earlier though... had been reading it and didn't like what he saw, and That is when the CoC on that board was born. Old time posters remember when there wasn't one. It was either that or shut it down.
All water under the bridge now.
