My roommate in Knoxville worked at Zaxby's and was constantly furious when everybody praised their food to high heaven:  "We just dump frozen chicken in a deep fryer.  :mellow: "

But it really was pretty good.   :blush:
I'm a fan too.  They have good fried mushrooms, and their boneless buffalo wings are about the same as Bdubs (though you can get them much hotter at Bdubs, of course).

The local Zaxby's is kind of shitty.  I love buffalo wings and I used to eat them all the time, but Zaxby's were often not very spicy--their definition of "insane" and mine are clearly not the same*--and/or undersauced, along with long wait times at the drive thru.

*Now Wild Wings?  They merit the name "insane," although their hottest sauce is called "braveheart."  That shit is good, but capable of causing chemical burns to skin that doesn't have access to a salivary flush system.

Like one's dick. <_<

Edit: oh, "Bdubs" is BWW.  Gotcha.

My wife still calls it BW3.  I dunno.  The wings are okay and all that, but goddammit even in the "family" area (they don't have a fucking smoking section anymore, so that just means the part where the taps aren't instantly visible, I guess), they have the music/TVs up so loud you have trouble hearing the person across from you.  Sure, I'm down for that sometimes, which is when I'll head into the bar area, but turn it down a little out front, mooks.  The Cowboys game doesn't need to be on 12.  Aikman and Buck will be just as boring on 8.  I promise.


E: I want some mango habanero wings now.

Concur.  Last time I went, just for dinner, it was is awful.  They had some live act and we were sitting as far away from it as possible.

I get wings for take-out. They're a great re-heat later food. Got a bottle of the wild sauce in the fridge too to add some more if needed. Everyone always asks what the 3rd "w" is for. It's weck.

One of the girls in accounting just brought me some kind of Mexican sloppy joe type things. Spicy as hell. I love it.

 :hmm: Isn't yakisoba basically ramen with like some meat and/or veggies on top?

Thanks to food poisoning at the Mellow Mushroom, I've been eating plain yogurt and crackers for a day.  Yay.

Lentil curry over basmati rice. :cool:

I used my new pressure cooker to make the lentil curry.  Why oh why am I just discovering this amazingly useful device now? :blush:
