Can't stand the piles of grease on a cold pizza. It's gotta be hot out of the oven. That's why I prefer Papa Murphey's Take and Bake Pizza. They make it and I take it home and bake it. That way I know it is done right. Domino's pizza always tastes dough-ee in the middle like it didn't get cooked all the way.

Those piles of grease get stuck in between my teeth when I eat cold pizza and so I don't eat it any other way except out of the oven.

At first I thought we were talking about my favorite Sports Show "Cold Pizza". It is on every day from 7 to 9 a.m..

Alan, you also forgot to mention how expensive Panera Bread is. We have them here in Wichita, but I can't afford to eat there but maybe once a month. Just for me, a half sandwich and cup of soup is about $11 and that is pretty expensive.

Their bagels are the best! Gotta buy their bagels by the dozen and freeze them for use at a later date. Great bagels!!

Its not expensive considering the quality of the fooods. A half sandwich and a cup of soup costs 6.00 here in MA, not that bad. I think that location in Wichita is a rip off...

Having had worked at a Panera Bread for almost a year, I can say quite assuredly that a U Pick 2 (1/2 sandwich or salad plus soup) is priced at $6.29 plus tax. I can't guarantee that it's the same price at all locations, but an almost 5-dollar price increase seems rather absurd (not that I'm trying to discredit any statements here, just saying what I know). Nonetheless, even at that price, Panera Bread is a bit too pricey to be eating at daily, at least with my budget. :tink:

I think maybe the guy was talking about having a whole sandwhich and a cup of soup priced at 11 bucks, thats around how much it costs.

Let's see here...I enjoy:

IHOP
Olive Garden
Applebees

Those are the only real good ones I'll go to every now and then. I've had a bad experience or two at Denny's and Friendly's so they don't make my list of favorites.

Some of the best food in Boston is in Chinatown. I don't personally enjoy dim sum, but some good restaurants are east ocean city, china pearl, ocean wealth. (Chinatown in BOSTON MA) I adore Sichuan food, go to Sichuan Garden in Framingham MASS, really spicy sichuan food. Morns is a good thai food located in Wayland MA. The Blue Room in Boston has a really good brunch. My friend invited me there to eat sunday brunch on his birthday. I've heard Ajourd'hui is really good french restaurant, but wicked expensive. Dinner for two costs around 300 dollars :cry:

I don't know what it is about Chinese food. It's good once, but I can never stand eating leftovers. We've got a slew of chinese restaurants around here, each offering the same menu at different prices, lol.

Nver heard of Panera Bread, though it sounds quite like Earl of Sandwich, which I'll love till my dying day. Their tomato soup is to die for, as are their sandwiches. Caribbean Jerk, Scudetto, Earl's Club, Cannonballs...mmm, I miss Florida even more now!
