    WHAT? Gates fries over Bryants? seriously? No way.
    Gates sausage, beans, Bryants fries, and that is the perfect KC bbq meal

    Fresh out of the fryer, I can agree with you.... But the dry, fluffy texture of Gates' fries is better to dip in the BBQ sauce than the dense chewiness of Bryant's fries.

    Now there is nothing better than using re-warmed Bryant's fries in scrambled eggs.

    I understand Oklahoma Joe's actually sprinkles crack on their fries.

    You just can't help yourself and you keep coming back.

    Bruce Arena really can make it through an entire season with a 30+ roster!


    What did I miss?

    Oh yeah, I ate El Monterey last night (aka my kitchen). Fresh from my microwave oven with a dab of Pace medium for color and texture. Those chicken and cheese taquito beauties just melted so evenly heatedly in my mouth, added with the touch of the refrigerated nature of my Salsa. This added a nice balance to the mild scalding of the roof of my mouth but was delectible none the less.

    The offseason can't end soon enough.

    I will admit that both beat the living crap out of the fries (finger chips is the name here) i'm getting these days.
    And fresh fried, hot, is the only way to eat any chips. Fries in scrambled eggs, eh? well, willing to give that a shot, but it smacks of a hamburger on a bun of two glazed donuts...

    they are good, but i wonder what the sodium count is on those things. sometimes, there's more seasoning than potato.

    If you chop them up into smaller bits, they're almost like country-style hashbrowns.. Not nearly as bad as the other..

    i've been wanting to try this for a long time now... just for the sheer lunacy of it all. i can't imagine it being a very good combination, though.

    A restaurant in Indy used to serve one it was ok, I wouldn't order it regularly but it's worth trying. When I had it we split it between 4 or 5 of us because we were just there to drink and wanted to try it.

    I assume the interest stems from the old george foreman quote, when he was talking about how wild and off the rails he'd gone, and was asked what the most decadent thing he'd ever done was, and he said ate one a burger like this. Always loved that image.
    BTW, chicken and rice again last night. you know, i have a feeling i'm gonna have to get used to the combo... I actually have a cook, have a suite rented for him next door and we've set up two kitchens on this floor of the hotel floor. but there really aren't many options besides chicken and rice, unless it's goat or lamb and rice. chicken is the better option.

    I am a fan of the quesadilla burger. It is definitely interesting, but I like it.

    As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I took my wife to Bristol Seafood in P&L on Saturday.

    I wasnt a big fan of what I had because it was too spicy for my taste. But, my wife enjoyed her food and mine as well since she ate my leftovers.

    I would go back due to the fact that they actually print a new menu on a daily basis so you will never see the same menu twice. I thought that was cool.

    Does anyone know if Jack in the Box is returning to KC? I have seen three commercials in the last two days and it says at the end of the ad that "Jack is Back".

    It's probably just their new advertising campaign, which could be confusing to markets that don't currently have JITB.

    They don't have anything on their current website as far as locations go, but one could be in development around here somewhere. You might want to send an e-mail to Joyce Smith at the Star. She has all the information regarding businesses opening, closing, relocating, etc.

    As sabotage said it could be just marketing. The last few commercials I saw for them Jack was in a comma.

    Could be what you are watching, similar to Chik-fil-a before they started building them here. If it was during college sports, it could have been that JITB is a sponsor of what you are watching. I would actually like it if they would get a few of them here, as we could always use some more fast food joints in this town. :D

    Mi Ranchito (Olathe, KS) has great Mexican food! The Jalisco Chimichanga is my favorite there. The manager's name is Jesus and he will turn the TV to ESPN or ESPN2 if a soccer match is on. During the USA v Mexico match he was cheering for USA! ;)

    It wasnt a regional station, they were all on ABC which has city specific advertising.

    I've never seen a Jack in the Box commercial in Kansas City and the whole "Jack is Back" at the end of the commercial made me think it was some kind of marketing campaign for Jack in the Box returning to KC. I havent found anything online about it though.

    I almost e-mailed you about it because I knew it would get you excited. Unfortunately, it doesnt look to be anything though.

    I'm also sick of seeing Whataburger commercials during Big XII games. I would like to see one of those here too.
