I go to school in Frederick (Hood College, if you know it) and Black Hog usually stays packed. I've never been there but judging from the crowd, it must be pretty good.

Haven't been to Friscos either. But now I know 2 places to hit up. (I'm a commuter :()

I would have to drive 12 hours to get to those places.

Sorry Alvin, I've never been to Michigan.

DR - Black Hog turns tables over pretty quickly, or you can sit at the bar and eat. Definitely worth it.

Mamma Lonbardi's on Long Island...Holbrook if I remember right. Incredible Italian food and pizza.

Rosa's Place in Shillington (Reading, PA area) has the BEST pizza I've ever had. They call it "Grandma Pizza". It's like a square Sicilian pizza but has tomato slices under fresh mozzeralla and fresh basil leaves on it. AMAZING. I just tried to duplicate it at home and it was the best pizza I've ever made, almost nailed it but theirs was insane. We stopped there last year when picking up a car we bought out there. The dealer treated us to lunch actually.

Re: Favorite Finds: Restaurants
 

i will only vouch for the clarksville (closed many years ago) location, but they were the best wings i've ever had in my life.

[url=http://www.billbateman.com/]Bill Bateman's Bistro - Best Buffalo Wings in Town![/url]

i've been to the towson location and the severna park location. the sauce was still the same top-notch sauce, but the actual wings were not fresh or they were overcooked, idk. they kept serving them lukewarm too, had to ask them to fry them again to heat them up. also, bill bateman himself is an asshole.

yeah gotta agree and must add

Taco Bell- seriously good quality meat

McDonalds - you ever seen how they make the dish "Chicken McNuggets"? tasty

7 Eleven - Hot dogs are top notch, ask the kind staff with multiple neck tattoos which ones have aged to perfection

Any Randon Truck stop - pickle potted meat- who knew the plague was still served with a smile?

Maybe...... I know Outback qualifies as international food but is Latin a legit cuisine type??? Honestly, not sure.

I will say that i am a friend of Friendly's. Rio is legit, but i used to work there so im partial.

I went to Outback about 4-6 months ago. It was disgusting.

Ive said on this forum before that i really like pho. The best ive had is Golden Cow in Falls Church on 50 and Graham and my is favorite Pho So 1 in Richmond (Richmond?) off of Horsepen. Pho So 1 has the best spring rolls ive ever had (sorry PF Changs). Both are shit holes but jam packed every day all day.

You know why the Brits conquered the world? 'cause they were looking for someplace to eat.

Off-topic, but funny anyway:
In heaven, all the chefs are French, the British are the police, the Germans are the mechanics, the Italians are the lovers and the Swiss run everything.
