ubkev Posted February 8, 2019 Report Posted February 8, 2019 I just had the weirdest wings ever. I'm in Lake George, so expectations were low, but they were freaking weird! It's was basically like eating mini KFC chicken but with wing sauce. Not bad, but now what I meant when I ordered wings. Pizza was good though. Quote
Eleven Posted February 9, 2019 Report Posted February 9, 2019 After suffering behind a minivan for 10 minutes in the ETS drive-thru (we were talking tacos in the GDT yesterday, no?), I ditched. So it's really crappy take-out sushi from Lexington Co-op. You'd think a place like that, situated where it is, would be better. It's not. It's not even as good as Wegmans take-out sushi. Quote

I need to get you out here for sushi. Yeah, we've actually got a good sushi place. Who knew? Quote

If I had just taken ten minutes to order, I would have been fine. I was in such a hurry to get away from certain friends (they will have headaches tomorrow and I won't) that I just moved on quickly.

Weave Posted February 9, 2019 Author Report Posted February 9, 2019 Huevos Rancheros for breakfast. Two over easy eggs, chorizo fried crispy, refried beans heavily seasoned, and two fried tortillas. Breakfast of champions. I'm good until dinner. Quote

Breaded, fried chicken needs substance like a leg, breast, or thigh... Quote

Sushi.... not near you. I have a long commute to get to your neck of the woods, Mon-Fri. You'd be surprised to hear that where I live has a good sushi place. We aren't exactly a culinary destination. I became a good cook in part because I couldn't get the quality of food I like without a 40 minute drive. Breaded wings make me think of Tully's. They have their time and place, but I prefer not breaded. Quote

Realistically I am much more a sashimi guy but I would think if they make good sushi that the sashimi would be good too. Quote

Eleven Posted March 8, 2019 Report Posted March 8, 2019 Ted's "Sea Dog." This is essentially a giant fishstick on a foot-long roll. It's some haddock/pollock/cod/insert cheap fish here mix that is way too deep fried. It was utterly disgusting. Quote

Jacque Richard Posted March 10, 2019 Report Posted March 10, 2019 Got a chicken sandwich from the the place on Walden Avenue today. Place inside is a mess. Litter all over. Food was good. Quote
Ogre Posted March 10, 2019 Report Posted March 10, 2019 Had a black bean burger salad at Irish Mafia...perfect...giant juicy cheeseburger on top of an avocado salad...several Mighty Egos to wash it down... Quote
ubkev Posted June 7, 2019 Report Posted June 7, 2019 Basil Hayden's Bourbon is pretty damn good. A bit too expensive, but it's still pretty damn good. Quote

It is really good stuff. My only fault with it is that it is on the light side at 80 proof. I really think bourbon shines at 94-107 proof. I’ve been hitting on a bottle of Thomas Handy. Barrel proof rye. It’s a bit too lively at barrel proof, but a touch of water and it turns into daddy’s candy. Quote

bobs0108 Posted June 8, 2019 Report Posted June 8, 2019 I just got a bottle of Whistle Pig Rye 10. Also went to Treehouse Brewery and got a case of Julius and another case of random beers from them. If you get a chance their beers are amazing. Heading up to Vermont to go to The Alchemist Quote
LTS Posted June 8, 2019 Report Posted June 8, 2019 We were drinking Basil Hayden last week while I was in Little Rock. The bar ran out so we switched to Basil Hayden Dark Rye. Wow.. I enjoyed that. 1 Quote
