Frontera in O'Hare is pretty great, as in I would probably eat there if I wasn't trapped in an airport. Flights into my hometown all go through ORD and I ate there twice this summer.

In my food court aka the student union I'm always kind of amazed at how many people are waiting in line for Panda Express. Way more than Subway which is in second place. I imagine it has to do with the default restaurant in the NW being one that serves the holy trinity of pho, teriyaki, and sushi and this is as close as it gets.

I pack lunch every day.

Arby's Roast Beef consists entirely of Beef and a Self-Basting solution

I always eat in whatever Asian place has bourbon chicken (cuz there's always one!)

I think Panda Express is overpriced but its usually the best-tasting of the food court choices, IMO. It is kind of like a giant pile of salt, though.

The Oh and a completely horrid "Cajun" place that is indescribably disgusting has bourbon chicken.

You know what tho, I never thought it was such a bad place. I've eaten there a couple of times.

I miss the DQ.

Arby's Market Fresh sandwiches used to be the shit (relative to other fast food options).

Their Jamocha shakes are good. Also, the jalapeno poppers.

Ha, the terrible Cajun place has bourbon chicken and is run by Asian people.

The line is crrrrrazy long unless you get there at 11.

Didn't we meet there at like 1 PM one time, and it was practically empty? (Actually, I can't remember if you were there or not -- I know Jesse and n/a and Sarah were.)

I was not there in that fateful day. I believe it is possible but I stand by my caution that most days the line during peak lunch hours is prohibitively long.

It's because a specific cashier is painfully slow.

Jeff, Saturday, 31 December 2011 17:49 (twelve years ago) link

GD, why are my posts fro Zing not showing up.

I said earlier that the according-to-Jenny shitty Cajun place had Bourbon chicken and it was run by Asians. And I thought that overall it was not such a bad place.

Sandbox Jesse, Saturday, 31 December 2011 18:41 (twelve years ago) link

Wait, my post did show up. Please forgive and disregard me.

Sandbox Jesse, Saturday, 31 December 2011 18:41 (twelve years ago) link

Their macaronic and cheese tastes like dishwater. Unforgivable IMO.

It's New Years Eve, let's not fight.

Surprised there were no secret shame votes for Taco Bell.

At the food court at the local mall, there are four or five restaurants that usually have someone giving out free samples on a toothpick. Sometimes when i'm hungry i'll walk through and eat one of each. I'm so cheap....
