Well, being in the food industry. I have gotten a groove into tasting new and interesting foods. Do you have a favorite restaurant that you go to all the time? Have a restaurant that you should stay away from?

Before I say anything. Many of you guys know that I work at Olive Garden. (Before I continue, I am by law only allowed to say that my opinions and thoughts about the Darden resturants do not reflect the views of the company. And thus, is just strictly my own personal opinion). Olive Garden delivers Genuine Italian food, complimented by a great glass of wine, served in a home-like Italian setting, and greeted by people who treat you like family.

From a price perspective it's not really bad at all. A high quality dish (Like the steak) tends to run your bill at about $20 bucks. Meanwhile mid-grade prices are around $12, and finally: Stuff like Pizza, Pasta, Soups, and Salads come to about $8.

Is the food good? If you work there you might get sick of it. But coming once a month -- or a week; it's actually a really good place to dine in. The food is great. My thoughts? Get the Alfredo pizza with unlimited Zoopa soup. It's the bomb. For desert? Tiramisu. Can you smell it? You should.

OG has some new dishes out that mixes crab meet inside a ravioli, with grilled shrimp and angel hair pasta to top it off. For around $18. It's like oral sex.

Some 'Secrets' Olive Garden tends to do to keep our guests coming back for more



Buffalo Wild Wings is the bomb. The bomb diggity bomb dawg. PERFECT place to check out some of your favorite sports (For me, WWE, Wrestlemania, and UFC) while chowing down on some burgers that puts hardees to shame. Their deserts however are not really that good. I do like their shakes though.

The draft beers are also not at a bad price. Tuesday nights? 1$ beer as long as you bring a date! Nothing better than drinking beer and having a cute date while you watch two people kill each other on huge 3D TV's. Fuck yeah. Also, once a month they hold trivia at the resturant in my area. I suck at them but there is always that one drunk guy (me) who gets lucky guesses.

I have more but I would like to see what restaurants you guys go to.

Funny thing about that. The first time I ever saw an ad for this place was while I was at Hooters this morning with Stitch, his cousins, and the boyfriend-person. Heh.

I work for Chilis, so whenever I visit then up to four people and I can get a 50% discount.

A lot of people seem to dislike Chilis, but in the past few years, its actually improved quite a bit, with huge serving sizes, and great food.

This is ironic, sorta, but we used to have a Chilis which didn't do very well then it ended up turning into an Olive Garden.

As far as restaurants go, I love the local places. I love Olive Garden but Rosarios has this pesto sauce that keeps me coming back! As far as pizza is concerned, right across the street from OG is Kaleidoscope. Hands down the best pizza in the state with a full service bar (with my favorite microbrews on tap) and they let you sample the beer for free. We're not talking about a little taste, but enough for 2 full gulps!

For burger places, there's Eddy's which has the juiciest and biggest burgers in town and a blackberry shake that's to die for! Another good place is "The Store", which isn't really a burger place but it's a convenience store that just happens to make burgers too!

Okay, so Italian and American don't sound that appealing? How about sushi? There have only been two good sushi restaurants in the valley and Genkai closed two years ago, so that leaves us with... Bonsai Teriyaki. The place doesn't look like much on the outside (or the inside for that matter) but their sushi is 5-star. We're not talking about a dollop of salmon on a wad of rice, they serve a generous piece that's flowing off of the sides of the rice, barely held on by a piece of nori! Not only are the portions large but it's prepared quickly and tastes fresh and delicious! The bentos and tempura dishes are also amazing!

Good Indian food is probably the hardest to find in Medford. India's Palace looks nice but it doesn't hold a candle to India Kitchen, which is this little place tucked over in the far side of town. Indian buffet, to be precise. The curry and chicken satay make my mouth water!

Speaking of buffets, the place I work now has the best Chinese buffet that you'll find! King Wah has been in business for over 60 years and the recipes haven't changed a bit. We offer a cheap all-you-can-eat that just plain amazing but the real deal is when you order off a menu... I haven't picked a dish yet that I don't like
