^ marginal AF, basically.
Why *would* Lexington have legit Italian places? It isn't a collection of filthy, turn of the century immigrants
Paisano's has been there forever. Not sure how they've stayed in business, because they are always slow. Probably have done little to update the decor in the last 25 years, either. The food is okay, but the cannolis are :100points::100points::100points:. :smiley:
If eating LJS is wrong, I don't ever want to be right. Besides, my colon could use a good lubing every so often.
Turn around and never come to the Paddock again. Worst take in history.
Does everyone think of Staten Island when someone says NYC?
There is crappy sea food on the coast and there is good. Same with the Midwest. The ceiling for quality seafood is higher on the coasts. It would seem like a simple thing to comprehend.

Just hammering home the absolute truth that you can get good fresh seafood coast to coast with modern logistics. Totally agree there is good/bad stuff everywhere but insisting you need to be in NYC or a coastal city to eat well is totally false.
Yeah, BuffaloSlim is struggling with this one. On any given night, your Top Tier NYC Seafood restaurants, many among the best in the world, are only getting a fraction of their 'fresh seafood' from anywhere near the NYC "coast".
Classic case of someone trying to sound smart/snobby on something they clearly have no clue about -- no unlike his gambol contributions.

Definitely not!!! Popcorn shrimp, fries and cole slaw is one of my favorite meals at home. Wouldn't order it out though.
Well, damn. I need to make my way back home to try Winchell's breakfast and bread pudding, and of course, another hot brown.
Somebody just opened a new Italian Restaurant in Lexington called Amici's. It is next to Taco Tico. Can't imagine it stays open longer than a few days.
Cal should open an authentic Italian place like they got in New York. The dishes should have names like One and Done, Dribble Drive, and the Tweak.
So nothing hot, spicy with scorpion chili called the "Payne Burger'?
or Tony Barbeeque baby back ribs?
The number one "can't believe they are still open" restaurant in Lexington. Has to be a money laundering thing.
Max and Erma's was awesome. I always thought I could have pulled a lot of tail with those old timey table phones if I hadn't been 9 years old.
I second Middle Fork. Pretty unique and everything was good. Try their peanut butter. I'm serious.
Hitting Tony's this weekend for the first time. I just looked at their menu and I shouldnt have checked prices.:flushed:
