    If you are on the fence, go. It is a great restuarant. A bit quirky but awsome food. Get there a bit before your reservation and have a drink at the bar. Tiny but cool.

    Update. He has now decided he wants, Beer, Pizza, and Wings for this dinner. As of now we are going to Giordanos because he wants chigago style pizza. Anyone got any other options they want to throw out in the pizza and wings category?

    TIA.

    well he changed his mind. doesn't want expensive anymore. He wants to drink beer and eat pizza/wings. So unless someone has a legit wing and/or pizza place, Giordano's is the move.

    They do. But you went full chain on me so I wasn't sure.

    Got any local reccomendations for wings/beer?

    That area I'm not familiar with so going off Google maps pienezza is highly rated but I still think Anthony's is your best bet out there.
    If you want to travel sodough is best Detroit style. Pizza Bruno curry Ford is best neopolitan. Prato is also a great option but going to be packed.

    This reminds me of my uncle who made a whole production of getting real Chinese food in Atlanta so we took him to this incredible and authentic place and then he complained there wasn’t chow mein on the menu.

    you sure you don’t work with my uncle?

    Tried raising canes. I will say no chicken tender place is worth THAT much hype. A chicken tender can only be so good. It has a ceiling.

    that said I would say they are better than chick fila, pdq, Publix and Huey magoos as far as the tenders. Still wouldn’t wait 30-45 minutes for them but again it’s chicken tenders.

    Looked awesome. Weather was amazing today too and I was kinda surprised to see how many people I knew who were posting about being out there. Just really cool.

    meanwhile it’s megacon and pro bowl going on too. Crazy Orlando weekend. Been seeing a lot of the nfl people all over Disney world on social media too.

    Central Florida was nuts this weekend. This was Saturday in Mt Dora for the arts festival. They think about 90,000 people were there. Lotta beer sold

    I mean, it certainly confirmed what I have assumed about him but it's always a little jarring to see somebody shred any ounce of respectability they might have had by putting on that bullshit and appearing on television.

    i could be wrong but i believe morgan and morgan owns or is affiliated with newlin's firm? which makes it even weirder since morgan is a democrat (or at least wants legal weed).
