Carabba's

[Snaggletiger]

Sausage and lentil soup.  Just order a bowl and some bread and forget everything else.  Trust me on this one.


That is all.

[Buzz Killington]

Ummmm...no.  Order the Rigatoni Martino.

Went there Saturday night in Monkeytown.  Took my pops out for his 81st birthday.  I ordered my entrée and the waiter asks what kind of soup I want.  Just about said nah, not interested but...what the hey.  Ordered the sausage/lentil.  You know how you get an appetizer somewhere and you wind up saying, "Dizzam, I could have stopped there and left fat and happy."  That's the way it was with this stuff.  Everybody got a taste and said they should have just ordered that.

Having said that, I've never gotten anything at Carabba's that wasn't top shelf.

The recipe is out there.

Carrabas makes a killer filet.  Order it rare.

The grilled chicken and garlic mashed potatoes are pretty dern skippy too.  Surprisingly, the place isn't that expensive.  Our bill for 6 people, all of whom got full entrees, was $95.00. We neeeeeeed one of these in Dothan.

Hijack:  One of the best steaks I have ever had was at an Italian chain - Maggiano's Center Cut Filet with Marsala wine sauce.  OMG

Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

BTW +1 on the Carrabas lentil stew.

It was a coupe of years ago but I believe it was a Maggiano's we ate at in Chicago.  I recall thinking the same thing about Carabba's.  Please let one come to Dothan.

IMHO, Carabbas is the best national chain restaurant that exists. Period.

Some may say Ruth's Chris or another one of the like...and Ruth's is great but for the quality and money, it's tough to beat Carabbas.

Everything on the damn menu is orgasmic.

I do think it's better than Churchs, which is the absolute bottom of the barrel for fried chicken and/or fast food places. Worse than McDs and Taco Hell even.

[Snaggletiger]

Bojangles does a goot job on day chickinz and biscuits.  But, back to the old argument, I'm still a KFC Original Recipe man.

This guy knows. The crust is the shit. Costs the most but well worth it.

Fuck Church's. They bifurcate their breasts before frying. It's a rip-off.

And reuse oil. And share the oil with other thing on their menu. And use the most basic cheap shit in very menu item.
