  1. I have five. Wishbone Italian Wishbone Bleu Cheese Ken's raspberry vinegreatte Hidden Valley Ranch Annes Green Garlic
  2. I think you'll be ok as long as you cook the eggs.
  3. Jay-Z raps about dinner at the Four Seasons like he's some sort of bigwig, so I'd recommend there.
  4. I was at Yocco's last week, and it appears that they have gone to Hatfield franks now instead of Medford. I'm not sure whether Hatfield and Medford are the same company....
  5. I grew up in Allentown and I love Yoccos.
  6. Hmm, I wonder what 4 star Szechuan cooking is like. Usually Szechan food is simple, spicy, and homestyle. Sounds interesting.
  7. I have burns and knife wounds on my fingers! But doesn't everyone?
  8. That's it. We're gonna subpoena all of Bob and Barbaras account sheets so we know for sure what's going on in that dingy old place.

    seared tuna

    The reason you only sear the outside is that raw tuna is divine, but cooked tuna is absolutely disgusting.
  10. On the subject of sushi, there are a couple suburban sushi places that are pretty good. I've always found the fish at Osaka and Bluefin to be consistently fresh. Osaka has good straightforward sushi, while Bluefin has a dazzling array of inventive and delicious rolls that will infuriate sushi purists. Ask for fish specials at both places, and they may surprise you.
  11. The old south street institution. Shot of Jim Beam/Can of Pabst Pabst runs about 40 cents a can. A liter of Jim Beam is about 14 to 16 dollars. This comes out to approximately a dollar a shot. They charge 3 bucks, which comes out to a whopping 46% cost of goods. I love Bob n Barbaras.
  12. Just so you know, Morimoto is crazy expensive. I've been there twice: once for a birthday, and once for a company-comped meal. It's neat and the food is good, but I had to get Wendy's down the street afterwards because I wasn't full. And it cost over a hundred per person.
  13. Wonderbread, kraft singles, and PICKLES. I win.
  14. Americans order Jager because it's the pretty much the only acceptable easy drinking "shooter" besides tequila and soco/lime. We're not gonna celebrate a joyous occasion before tearing up the dance floor by ordering Manhattans.
  15. Gin - Seagrams Vodka - Seagrams Whiskey - Jack Tequila - Sauza Rum - Bacardi
  16. Tequila always makes me want to strip off my clothes and shower with some Mexican hookers.
  17. Paradigm in Philadelphia has clear plexiglass for their unisex stalls. If you forget to lock the doors in order to "fog" the glass, people can watch you pee pee!
  18. How about La Croix? Dudes there wear suits and serve nice wine, which seems to be what you're after.
  19. My favorite are the Medford franks that can only be bought at Yoccos in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
  20. I'm still waiting for the Chicken foot cheesesteak.
  21. So much confusion.... Jiao-zi/gyoza/Dumpling/pot sticker/shue jiao/gwo tei wrappers - white, round wonton wrappers - yellowish, square
  22. Django's weird. It's tiny, and looks like it was decorated by the vintage store next door, but the food is great.
  23. I must be weird because I love everything mentioned in this thread, except Durian.
  24. Cook it like this.
