We're getting our first Raising Caine's in Kansas City. Should I make an effort to go out of my way to try it? It's a good 20-30 minutes away from me. Keeping in mind that we already have Chick-Fil-A & Slim Chickens(besides all the national chains like Church's, Popeyes, KFC, etc)
I would not go out of my way for Caine's. It's just chicken and then the saunce. Not a big variety to choose from.

These are the best "mashed" potatoes...Pommes Aligot Recipe | Martha Stewart

Pretty sure on one of the Anthony Bourdain episodes he says that Joel Robuchon uses 1 lb of butter for every 2lbs of potatoes or something insane like that. I've only had them like 3 times at a French restaurant we used to go to in Chicago but they are, as we say in this thread, God tier.

Noodle, get the cheddr peppers with ranch at Sonic. It's really the only reason I go besides the drinks.

The ultimate meat and cheese breakfast burrito is good as well since they finally changed their salsa.

I saw somebody ask Alton Brown why their mashed potatoes were not as good as restaurant mashed potatoes and he said something along the lines of "Probably because you would be too ashamed to use as much butter as they do."

I'll probably be negged for this but I enjoy mashed cauliflower over potatoes. I can eat a whole plate of it and not feel like I'm a complete piece of shit.

To save myself, today for dinner I had a burger, fries and 3 corn dogs with a beer. I wanted to take a picture for this thread, but I didn't want to be that guy taking photos of his food in a restaurant.

I don't think they have sold cheddar bites for quite awhile now.

I personally think sonic isn't all that bad. Their burgers are decent, their tots are great and so are their drinks. That's a pretty good meal to me

Ok dude you get me. You just get me.

The only thing is I need to not get onions because I don't like them, but this sounds like a solid meal. Also I'm diabetic so you may kill me. Is this meal worth my life?

They still have them in Texas, maybe it's location specific.

Alternately, you can do chili cheese tots with jalapenos and sour cream. I usually skip the sour cream because I don't need that extra 200 calories on top of the 3000 I already ingested. You gotta have limits.

You may die. Though personally I would get regular tots, the chili makes them kind of mushy. Otherwise a solid meal suggestion.

Though I usually get cherry-vanilla Coke Zero, but I realize that isn't everyone's jam. Ocean water is pretty good too, basically blue coconut syrup and sprite. It's like a pina colada soda
