I love Burger King and Pizza Hut! Those are two of my faves! Haven't been to either in a long time ... never been to Olive Garden, but I know it's pretty pricey (isn't it? I could be wrong) I bet it is awesome though! We have this really good restaurant here locally called Backwater Cafe and the service is always really nice and it's home cooking and according to my friend (I'm not a vegetarian), they have really good veggie burgers. But yeah lol. Never heard of the other two you listed. They just in GA?

Ok, so, I'll provide reasons for why I love my top 5 choices so much:
1. Red Robin (I was taken here one time before Thanksgiving, and their food is absolutely amazing! I just love their burgers and bottomless fries :D.)
2. Smashburger (It's just really good.)
3. Backwater Cafe (I've been taken here since I was little :D. Going this Friday!)
4. Wendy's (Their burgers and fries are awesome.)
5. A&W (I've been taken here since I was little, but the mall where I usually go to took it out of their food court :( But there are other places by me that have one.)

I hate to say this (OK, maybe I don't) but don't any of you live where they have real restaurants and not just fast food chain restaurants?

Did you ever try the appetizer Chicken Soong? It's been my favorite for years. If you try it, tell them to make it spicy.

My favorite main dish is Crispy Prawns with Xo Sauce. They also make the best Lemon Chicken I've ever had.

I've had their lemon chicken and I LOVE it! I haven't had the other items you mentioned, but they do sound good. I love food to be spicy. Singapore Mei Fun is really good. That dish has pork, shrimp and chicken with thread like noodles and hot peppers. I love that one too! :)

I've had Singapore Mei Fun in other restaurants but never at Shun Lee. It's only really good when they use cellophane noodles which I'm sure Shun Lee does. But that's too pedestrian for me to get at Shun Lee. I like to go exotic except for the Won Ton soup which is the best.

I once ordered their won ton soup that had jumbo shrimp in it.... not regular won ton soup. It was delicious!

Also in NYC, I love Becco Restaurant. I've never been to Peter Luger in Brooklyn. I saw your posting of it earlier... looks good, also I've heard lots of great things about that place.

I've never been to any of Lidia's restaurants. I've heard bad things about her personally. Lattanzi is right next door to Becca and most excellent.

And Barbetta is right next door to Lattanzi. Not what it once was but someplace you should see if you've never been there, especially out in the garden if it's a nice day.
