Its fairly new, Pizzeria de la Piazza, only suck thing is it takes 45 min+ for them to bake the pie.

On a side note, this weekend is Hill day, if anyone is in town and wants to party, look for the huge party a couple houses down from Milo's

[IndieMatty]

1) Why am I buying you guys lunch? (Not saying I won't, but a valid reason would be nice.)

2) I'm eating very light today, I have a dinner at an awesome steak place tonight that has a winetasters special (unlimited decent wines accompanied with each course)-and they have a tv in view from our reserved table. Tonight could be the best night of the year.

I should probably leave the office for lunch. There's a Persian place a few blocks away that I've been meaning to try. But I'll probably take the lazy way out and opt for the fish sandwich in the shop downstairs.

Whopper w/ cheese. Hold the rabbit food. 5-piece chicken tenders.

edit: the bastards forgot the cheese. my day just keeps getting better.

[Shajen]

Not really sure what the meals are called, but it's stuff like rice/stew combos, vegies, etc.

It's pretty good, but really filling, and I don't know if I want to sit here for another 5 hours with a lead bomb sitting in my gut.

[Bulldog]

Local street fair is in town. I’ll probably keep it simple (cheese steak, French fries, stewart’s root beer float) but there a many options including all varieties of BBQ, cheeseburgers in marinara, funnel cakes, Auntie Anne’s pretzels, deep-fried vegetables, and of course deep-fried Oreos!

The father of FoodTV chef Mario Batali owns a restaurant in Seattle called Salumi. After retiring from Boeing, Mr. Batali went to Italy to learn the art of curing meat. Now he cures his own meat on site and makes the most amazing sandwhiches.

I believe I will walk over and have some hot sopresseta (salami with hot peppers), beef tongue or perhaps Mole cured proscioutto, with grilled onions, fresh mozarella and a yummy spread with olive oil and basil.

Last Friday was still sunny and pleasant here. Today is gloomy, cold and rainy. No one will want to wait in line outside today, so it should be tolerable. I have to avoid Salumi in the summertime, since the wait can be 20-30 minutes.

Oh, not sure how far away from Minneapolis you can get Summit, they make a decent selection of beers usually.

Reading the food thread and realizing dinner won't be till 9 means I accepted the invitation to chipotle from office pal. I will be getting either hard tacos or a chicken burrito.

Pizza and Pepsi.

Yes it is. This is cured tongue, thinly sliced like salami. A bit salty for my taste but very flavorful.

I went there recently and my buddy ordered the tongue sammie. The woman said "ahhh, my favorite. I don't even work here usually, I just told them I would help out today for tongue." My buddy said "I used to do that a lot in college." Nice.

Well, it's not like I'm going to recommend it to LD next time he comes to Atlanta, but it's pretty much up to par with all the Japanese/sushi places I've been to around here. The buffet is pretty plain though, so it's not like you get any of the good rolls for that. Just some nigiri, basic california roll type stuff, and some of their fried rolls.

Carnitas, fajita + beans + cheese, sour cream, lettuce, mild salsa and guac. (I'm having steak for dinner, had chicken last night) with the works. One large diet coke two lemon wedges. Having a corona at my desk right and will go out to the fire stairway and have my first ciggarette of the week. This will be followed by a few more coronas as I refuse to work today and will be roaming NYC tonight in search of drunken adventure.

I'll be having the Zankou Chicken Quarter White Plate:

http://www.zankouchicken.com/chicken_zankou_plates.html

Comes with a quarter of rotisserie chicken, lettuce, tomato, hot peppers, armenian pickles, hommus, and Zankou's special garlic sauce. You also get 2-3 pita breads to make sandwiches.

I get a Tahn with it which is an Armenian yogurt based drink to help combat the hot peppers and it goes great with the garlic taste.

I really should win this one.

Similar to my usual order at buritto loco (which I go to instead of chipotle now).

Rice, shreaded pork, fajita mix, beans, cheese, BBQ sauce, corn salsa, medium salsa, and seasoned sour cream. Occaisionally I will go the more traditional route and get guac instead of BBQ sauce.

So we drove to some church place, sat in chairs on a stage and they called us up and we walked up to the camera and made an inverted arch with our hands (we were supposed to be people auditioning for a hand commercial or some [censored]). It won't get shown on TV but will get shown at the festival so I'll post a link once they finalize it.

I had scallops in garlic sauce with the corn soup. It was ok. The booth was really tiny and I didn't fit in it really well.

Taco Bell will be involved for me.

While I've already had lunch (free Papa John's pizza), I was considering hitting up the Bell for dinner. I haven't eaten there in forever. The first and only time I ate there the food was pretty poor, and I'd never been back. However, with as much as OOT raves about it, I've been convinced to give it another shot. What should I order to maximize the likelihood of returning?

[BottlesOf]

Had a shrimp tempura appetizer and an 8 oz filet entree.

2) Ethiopian joint down the way

What do Ethiopian's eat? (Not making a joke, just curious).

[/ QUOTE ]

I've been to an Ethiopian place before, so I know why all those Ethiopians are so damn skinny - their food SUCKS!

[Ulysses]

What steak place, Fatty?

By the way, KJS, that sandwich place sounds awesome.

It's actually not bad, and dirt cheap.

I don't ball like you do D, I can't afford the fancy restaurants everytime.

[Ulysses]

WTF? How do you not get a roast beef sandwich of some sort? Arby's rules.

Topped off with the best fast food desert ever. Arby's cherry turnover

Obviously you never had Cinnamon Crispas, the best fast food dessert ever.

Also, you may not have tried Chick-Fil-A FRIED pies.

I like lots of cheap food. Just not Ethiopian.

For cheap lunch, btw, the winner is always VIETNAMESE SANDWICHES. I could probably eat these pretty much every day.

[Shajen]

I don't know of any vietnamese joints around buckhead.

If there are any close by, I'll give it a go next week.

[censored] you geezer. 16 pounds since zone chefs.

It's an underrated place called Cite. Wine Tasters special. $70 bucks. (its more about the booze); I doubt it would impress a foodie like you.

Next time in NY; Adriennes Pizza on Stone and Ulysses.

[B Dids]

There's a place in Seattle, on the Ave called "Than Vi" you can get a sandwich and two large spring rolls (get them with tofu and not shrimp) for just north of 5 bucks. Great deal and great food.

Cinnamon Crispas yes, but no on the Chick-Fil-A, we just got one here in the OC, I will give it a try.

Years ago, we used to have brunch at Jekyll and Hyde many weekends. Unlimited mimosas, screwdrivers, and bloody marys. It's just a matter of setting expectations correctly.

I just checked out Cite (http://www.citerestaurant.com/quarterly_wines.asp) . Looks like they usually have a decent cab. I also like the fact that one of the choices is sparkling wine. I would probably have about 10 glasses of champagne and 6 glasses of cab w/ my dinner.

Dont do it. I think vietnamese food is not good, plus what they call chicken looks a lot like cat.

Vietnamese food is very good. However, there are generally two kinds of joints:

Vietnamese restaurants - they will have a lot of noodle soup dishes (pho) and other dishes that look similar to other Asian (chinese, thai, etc.) places.

Vietnamese sandwich shops - these have the most awesome sandwiches, the most standard being roast pork w/ cilantro and shredded carrots and pate. They are insanely good and typically cost about $2.

[B Dids]

Vietnamese Food has a ton of french influence in it, and it's amazing. What I like is that lot of the dishes start pretty straight forward, but you can season them yourself with the provided sauces and really make something that fits you exactly.

I tend not to mess with the chicken, go with the pork if you get down with pig.

Edit- Implied in this statement is that French food is good, obv.

[jakethebake]

I'm starving. someone send me their leftovers from lunch.

OK, a couple of guys I work with are Vietnamese, and are going to bring in one of these sandwiches on Monday. They have been telling me to try them, but my experience at the traditional Vietnamese places was not good. I will give a full report.

I had one of my vietamese coworkers bring in a roast pork w/cilatro sandwich from the local Viatnamese sandwich shop in Garden Grove today, and it was excellent. I take back the bad things I said about vietamnese food. It was $2.35.

I also had the plesure of eating at Crustacean in Beverly Hills this past week, but I would not consider this a true Vietnamese resuarunt. I will say that it is in my top 5 favorite resuarunts.
