For your helpful advice here's an insider's tip: Bill's Bar & Burger makes maybe the best chili I've ever had. It's delicious.
DEFINITELY head over to SOS and let me know what you think of the onion rings.

I've heard bad things about Bills...might have to try and form my own opinion.

Heard the beef parties they use are way too thin. My grandpa has ate pretty much everywhere in AC and he said Bills is crap so I never even bothered to try it.

If honestly rather shell out the extra money and go eat at the Bar at McCormick and Schmicks (sp?)

Will definitely be trying the rings. The Chicken Cordon Bleu sub (w/ hot peppers) at Sackos is already one of my favorites - if I can pair it with great onion rings, we have the makings of a pretty epic meal here.

I eat at Bill's fairly regularly. I think the burgers are fine, but nothing to write home about. They could definitely stand to be a little larger. I also think they should just add the $3 or $4 to each order and make it come with fries - I think having to order them separately makes it feel more overpriced than if they were bundled. It's definitely not cheap for a burger, but not out of line for typical casino food either imo.

It's funny though, for a place named after the burgers, I think there are several things on the menu that are much better. The chili is great as I mentioned. The boneless wings (really chicken strips) are really tasty too, both the buffalo and bbq. They even have a great salad that has really great/fresh greens and a white balsamic dressing that is tasty (it's the more simple salad, w/o the chickpeas and what not) - it's a really great meal if you put a turkey burger patty on top, and it feels half-way not terrible for you.

...and as I've devolved into talking about healthy salads in the fast food thread, I'll stop now.

Used to go all the time like 12 years ago. Then yeah, my local one closed down and I thought that was that. Now I'm in Bangor Maine and there's one up here! What luck! Anyway ya the onion rings are truly delicious. I like that crumbly style though, not stingy or puffy. You hear me?

Strawberry frosty sounds intriguing.

Tried that new frito nacho burrito today from taco bell. Wasn't a fan, the frito flavor didn't mix well, they were oddly too sweet and didn't add anything other than a crunch.

Mine didn't even have a crunch by the time I drove home, and it's only 5 minutes away.

Wish they would sell it with a separate lil bag of fritos to add later


Soggy fritos in a burrito sounds awful

They do have the $2 meals with the little bag of Doritos that you could add later.

Gross. I ate mine last (after a #6 sub doritos taco) bc I had high expectations. Still crunchy at least but wouldn't get it again. I prefer the nacho combo burrito.

Have a bag of Doritos at home. Order them without fritos/Doritos whatever. Get home, open burrito, smash up fritos/doritos. Put them in burrito, rewrap burrito. Eat until you reach climax.

Yeah, we need a trip report on those to factor those commercial images modulo the truth.

I always wondered why Taco Bell doesn't make a Walking Taco. I used to eat them all the time at fairs in Michigan, but haven't had them in years.

Same here. When I moved tote south, I found out people called them Frito Pies...which makes me want to throw up

Did McDonalds change the McChicken sandwich recently? The last 2 times I had it, the meat was rubbery.

Pizza vending machines are coming to America.

Just what America needs: Pizza vending machines

"Let's Pizza" vending machines make ten-inch hot pizzas from scratch in less than three minutes. You can watch as the dough is kneaded all the way to it is cooked in an infra-red oven and served in a take-out box.

The pizzas will cost about $6.

They've been in Europe for a few years. Has anybody tried them?
