As you can tell from the tables below I use the term restaurant for this post quite broadly. For the Kall family I am reviewing any establishment we ate at for the year 2010. Obviously, defining a restaurant as “any establishment we ate at” leaves the restaurant spectrum quite wide.
I must admit that it is interesting when you take a look at every place you have eaten at for the entire year. It brings a whole new meaning to the term “Piggers” ;).
To kick things off I want to hand out some awards. First, the award of the most visited restaurant by the Kall family, with a grand total of visits of 52 (averaging a little over once a week), goes to Subway.
A sad but very true fact about my family is that we like convenience. Not only is Subway a super fast food, but it was right next to our house and my graduate office. I am fairly certain that convenience will be what kills us (and probably America).
The second award goes to the restaurant we spent the most at, and that is the China House with a whopping $960.15. Even if you averaged out our visits to the China House (10 times) we still paid $96.02 per meal. In our defense, the China House in Oakmont has the best sushi you will eat in Pittsburgh. Unfortunately, you will also pay for the taste!
The final award goes to the Silk Elephant in Squirrel Hill for spending the most in one sitting. We spent $176.09 on some amazing Thai food and culture. Not to be misleading this tab was for eight adults. We were celebrating my graduation with several of my classmates and it was a lot of fun.
Now if that was just for a family of four that would be some serious expensive grub. However, if we are just looking at a dinner with the Kall family we have a lower (but not by much) amount.
So, the true winner of the most expensive meal the Kall family ate in 2010 is (drum roll) Red Lobster. Costing our family $101 (which does include a generous tip). I am mostly to blame for this high figure. I love lobster, but the amount of energy you spend getting to the meat helps fire up an appetite for other foods. If you ever eat at Red Lobster you know quite well that this strategy of eating isn’t cheap.
With the awards out of the way, I figured I would write a critic on each restaurant and give our honest opinion.
Note: We ate at 71 restaurants in 2010. I am only showing one review at a time, because some of them are quite lengthy. However, I have added navigation tools that allows you to open the table up to more than one review or to just do a search. Hopefully this will help in going through all our data.
| Restaurant | Times Visited | Total Amount Spent | Recommendation | Review |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ali Baba | 1 | $80.00 | Ryan Likes, Lacy Dislikes | Ali Baba is an Indian restaurant fairly close to my office in Oakland. Last year when I flew out to meet with my program adviser he took me here. If you like authentic Indian food you will love this place. I have eaten here many times and have not been disappointed. Lacy unfortunately doesn't feel the same way. She ate here once and got a leg of lamb. She didn't expect to get viking size lamb leg. It grossed her out and she hasn't ever wanted to eat there again. Personally, I just think it is not her cup of tea, but if Indian food is your thing than I think you won't be disappointed. |
| Applebee's | 17 | $623.55 | Kall Family Likes | Applebee's has to be Lacy's and my favorite sit down restaurant. It is with in walking distance of my office (which is dangerous), and therefore we spend a lot of our money there. Our favorites are their Chicken Wonton Tacos and Jalapeno Burgers. Makes me hungry just writing about it! |
| Aramark Gettysburg | 1 | $24.76 | Kall Family Likes | If you are ever in Pennsylvania you have to go and check out Gettysburg. You won't be disappointed I promise. We took both our parents there and had a great time. We also ate at their visitor center. There food was fine, but there service was great. We got to their cafeteria 10 minutes after they closed. Lacy was ill and needed food. The people there allowed us to buy what we needed and even eat in the cafeteria which was closed to everyone else. Really great service, really great people. |
| Asian Café | 1 | $12.40 | Ryan Dislikes | The Asian Café is one of the many Asian restaurants in Pittsburgh. I personally wasn't impressed by the food. It wasn't horrible but I have had a lot better. It would be a convenient place for me to eat at since it is close to where I work but once was enough for me. |
| Auntie Anne Pretzels | 2 | $15.25 | Kall Family Likes | Auntie Anne's is a weakness for Lacy and I. Every we take the kids to the mall we almost always have to get one. There is no doubt that they are outrageously priced, but the soft delicious pretzels are our vice for sure. If you are strong enough to resist than you will save yourself some pesos, but if you like great pretzels and have not will power than you won't be disappointed. |
| Bahama Breeze | 1 | $109.00 | Ryan likes | I took some friends from Australia to Bahama Breeze and they really enjoyed it. The food is definitely good, but the service is far better. Plan on spending about $12 to $15 a plate, but the atmosphere of Bahama Breeze makes it worth it. |
| Baskin Robbins | 1 | $7.68 | Kall Family Likes | 31 delicious flavors....enough said =). |
| Ben and Jerrys | 1 | $9.63 | Lacy Likes, Ryan Doesn't Care | Yeah, it is a famous ice cream place, but the prices are not worth in my opinion. Lacy loves to visit here when ever we are downtown. Personally, I would be just fine with a dollar cone at a fast food joint. |
| Bob Evans | 1 | $21.00 | Ryan Dislikes | I think the Bob Evans Restaurant is native to Pennsylvania because I haven't seen it anywhere else. I ate here once when Lacy and the kids where visiting Grandma. The food is as unoriginal as you are going to find. If you are looking for a place to satisfy in the hunger hole than it will do, but if you are looking for taste go somewhere else. |
| Boston Market | 7 | $182.46 | Ryan Likes, depends on Lacy's mood (so partial like). | My first job ever was working for Boston Market. The simple fact that ten plus years later I still eat there should tell you something (in fact, we ate there last night). I love their new marketing effort to make it feel like you are eating at home (though, I feel for the workers and dish clean-up). My favorite is their Rotisserie Chicken Carver®. I am just glad I don't have to make it ;). |
| Brueggers | 7 | $81.82 | Ryan Really Likes | I have spent long hours in Brueggers the last several months. Not only do they have amazing bagels (which they make there in the shop) they also have free wi-fi. When I decide to not go into the city I will go here to get a good lunch and study. |
| Buffalo Wild Wings | 1 | $32.00 | Kall Family Likes | Lacy loooooooooves buffalo wings, and I don't mind eating them if they are boneless. We have eaten several times at Buffalo Wild Wings and to be honest haven't been overly impressed. We only ate there once in 2010 and the service rather poor. We went at 2:30 in the afternoon (after the lunch rush) and had to wait over an hour to get our meal. The food was okay, but nothing to rave about (and definitely not worth waiting that long for). From this experience we have crossed Buffalo Wild Wings off of our list of restaurants to eat at. |
| Café Rio | 2 | $30.28 | Kall Family Likes | Unfortunately, there isn't a Café Rio out East (in fact, I can't say there is really any great Mexican on the East Coast). So, whenever we head West, particularly Utah, we gorge ourselves on their smothered burritos. Truly, if you want to gain 5 pounds in one sitting this is the place! |
| Camilles Café | 2 | $16.90 | Ryan Dislikes | Camilles Café was right across the street from my office. I only tried it a couple of times because I didn't think their food or drinks were worth the prices. |
| Charley's Grille | 1 | $2.13 | Ryan Indifferent | I cannot give a strong recommendation either way since I visited Charley's at the Pittsburgh airport, and I only bought a water. |
| China House | 10 | $960.15 | Kall Family LOVES | When we moved to Pittsburgh we expected to find amazing sushi places, since we were only six hours from the coast. However, what we found was old, over-priced sushi wannabe. That was the case for every place but China House in Oakmont, PA. It is still expensive, but man is it awesome (and worth it). We particularly recommend the crunchy, dragon, and volcano rolls! |
| Chipotle | 2 | $29.79 | Kall Family Likes | The last time we went to Washington D.C. we found a Cafe Rio knock-off, which was a welcome surprise since we haven't found too many Mexican restaurants in Pittsburgh that we have liked. Similar to Cafe Rio, Chipotle has a cafeteria style serving. We had their smothered burritos and highly recommend them. |
| Chuck E Cheese | 1 | $39.55 | Kall Children Like, Kall Parents Dislikes | Another restaurant that we only went once and won't go to again, much to the chagrin of our two year old daughter Camille. Chuck E. Cheese is definitely created for children, but not for parents. It was cramped and thousands of knee-biters ran wild. Camille loved Carousel horse ride, and our favorite picture moment of the evening was another child acting like she was going to give Camille a hug and then throwing her down the slide. We wiped a few tears from that event, which Camille recovered from, but Lacy and I did not! |
| Curritos | 3 | $25.95 | Kall Family Likes | Curritos is a great burrito place in the Pittsburgh International Airport. We usually eat here when we fly. We really, really liked it. They have some great authentic burritos that you don't normally find in a mexican joint. |
| Denny's | 1 | $31.00 | Kall Family Indifferent | If Denny's went out of business we wouldn't be sad. It is an okay place to hit if there is nothing else around. |
| Don Pablo's | 1 | $43.00 | Kall Family Dislikes | I LOVE tacos, so when we picked up my niece and nephew from the airport and saw Don Pablo's offering all you can eat taco's we couldn't resist---we should have. It's a nice restaurant, but their tacos were horrible. I may be picky, but really I have had fast food tacos that were better than Don Pablo's. Everyone else had different platters, and were also unsatisfied. Definitely a pass in the future! |
| Dozen Cupcakes | 1 | $12.43 | Ryan Likes | Dozen cupcakes open up right under my graduate office, and where offering free food on opening day. Of course, all of us graduate students went. When I graduated I took my visiting parents to eat there and we all loved it. If you are a rice crispy fan like myself it is a must try! |
| Dunkin Doughnuts | 1 | $12.68 | Ryan Likes | Lacy and I moved out to Pittsburgh in August 2008. We were amazed at how many Doughnut shops are out here. Pittsburgh and Doughnuts are parallel to Seattle and Coffee. You will see a Doughnut shop on almost ever corner. One thing I like about Dunkin' Donuts is that it is not all Doughnuts. I had to teach my church's youth bible class every morning for several months. One time I stopped by to pick up doughnuts for the class and found that they have a great selection for breakfast as well. I also was surprised to see that at six in the morning that Dunkin' Donuts was crazy busy. Good doughnuts and good breakfast |
| Eat N Park | 4 | $128.98 | Kall Family Indifferent | Both Lacy and I grew up out West and wasn't introduced to Eat' N Park until we came here (we are not sure if they were in California or not). To us Eat' N Park is more of step up from a Village Inn (which the national VI chain doesn't exist in Pittsburgh, but we are told there is a great Italian restaurant that goes by the same name). It is not bad food, but it is about the same price as Applebee's and if you are going to spend that type of money you might as well go to Applebee's. |
| Einstein Bros | 1 | $7.00 | Kall Family Likes | Great bagel place, but we actually like their ice cream better! |
| Five Guys | 2 | $17.61 | Ryan Likes, Lacy Dislikes | I've learned that greatness of Five Guys depends on the location. The best Five Guys in Pittsburgh-ish area is the one across from the Pittsburgh Mill mall. Every time I do a honeydo to Walmart I make sure to stop there and earn another fat roll! |
| Foodler | 1 | $16.23 | Ryan Likes | Hard Rock Café Pittsburgh is a place we take anyone visiting us from out of town. Their food and atmosphere makes it a fun place to remember! |
| Hard Rock Café | 3 | $243.00 | Kall Family Likes | Unlike Eat N Park, IHOP is definitely out West, and one of the Kall's favorite restaurants. However, the closest IHOP is almost a half hour a way. Fortunately, it is on the way to the airport. So, IHOP is our restaurant of choice when we have to go out that way. |
| IHOP | 6 | $241.83 | Kall Family Likes | Unlike Eat N Park, IHOP is definitely out West, and one of the Kall's favorite restaurants. However, the closest IHOP is almost a half hour a way. Fortunately, it is on the way to the airport. So, IHOP is our restaurant of choice when we have to go out that way. |
| KFC | 1 | $7.90 | Ryan Dislikes, Lacy Likes | Really folks, does it not concern you that Kentucky Fried Chicken had to rebrand its name to KFC? Rebranded or not KFC to me is just a heart-attack deep fat fried and served with greasy potatoes. |
| Kiva Han Café | 6 | $41.53 | Ryan Dislikes | You would think by the simple fact that I visited Kiva Han six times that I would be a fan, but it was more convenient than anything. Their food isn't great, and since I am not a coffee drinker (which I am told is great) I really wasn't a fan. |
| Kohli's Indian Imports | 1 | $9.51 | Ryan Likes | This is a little Indian store on Craig's street in Pittsburgh. I imagine that stores in Bangalore are quite similar. It has everything you could possibly imagine and more. Every inch of the store is stacked with something you can buy. I have only bought some goodies there once, but about once a week I would go in and look at all the different eclectic knacks they have. |
| Levy Restaurant | 3 | $31.75 | Ryan Dislikes, Lacy Likes | The only reason I don't like Levy's is due to the pricing. We ate at PNC park when we went to our first Pittsburgh Pirates game (which of course they lost). For stadium food it was a step up, but so is the pricing. |
| Little Ceasers | 1 | $26.88 | Kall Family Likes | Who ever started Little Ceasers understands the need of how families what cheap and fast pizza (if it tastes good that is a plus too). Our little children love it, which I am sure will be added to the list they give to their therapist 20 years from now on why we were horrible parents! |
| MadMex | 1 | $33.00 | Ryan & Lacy Dislike | I took Lacy here in hopes for some authentic good Mexican. Those of you are familiar with Madmex know that it is neither. We were thoroughly disappointed (we are always looking for a good Mexican haunt). |
| Maximum Flavor Pizza | 7 | $45.18 | Ryan Likes | The only thing that is sad about Maximum Flavor Pizza is that I finally broke down and visited it in the last two weeks of my graduate program. They seriously have everything including pizza. After learning how good the food was I went as often as I could before I graduated. It truly became my restaurant of choice while studying. |
| Mayorga Coffee | 1 | $16.15 | Ryan Likes | Yet another restaurant I ate at while traveling. Personally I alternate between Curritos and Mayorga. Generally, I go to Mayorga's when I am in a hurry and Corritos when I want good Texmex food! |
| McDonalds | 21 | $224.20 | Kall Family Dislikes | When Lacy and I think of fast food that is going to kill you McDonalds is the first to come to mind. I cannot remember why we went there, but I am sure it had something do with a dire situation of screaming kids and finding the closest food source. It looks as if there wasn't any real food source around and McDonalds had to do. |
| Moio's Italian | 2 | $21.50 | Ryan and Lacy Like | I have actually only been in the parking lot of Moio's, but I truly benefited from their pastries. From what Lacy tells me Moio's is an authentic Italian bakery, and our friends the Matthews absolutely love it. Having tasted some of their cakes I can understand why! |
| Montezuma Mexican | 1 | $67.00 | Ryan and Lacy Like | When my parents came and visited us we took them to Gettysburg. After visiting the sacred ground of the battle we decided to find a place for dinner. I couldn't pass up a Mexican joint with the name of Montezume (think "revenge"). The restaurant was actually really good, and I would recommend it to anyone going out to Gettysburgh. Just don't drink the water Ü. |
| Nicky's Thai Kitchen | 7 | $295.85 | Kall Family LOVES | Lacy and I LOOOOVE Thai food, and Nicky's is the best we have found. I particularly like their ragoons. Yet, if you are curry fan you won't be disappointed either. We have tried every single curry that they offer and have loved them all. One word of caution: If you like spicy and you're a whitey, go with a 4 or 5 in spicy. We went with a 7 and couldn't finish our dish because it was too hot. Lesson learned! |
| Noodle Company | 2 | $18.07 | Lacy Likes | Lacy is a big fan of the Noodle Company. When we had our second child I would go out and get her some of their soups and smoothies, which loves. I personally don't hate the restaurant, but would rather spend my money somewhere else (not a big carbs fan). |
| Orange Julius | 1 | $8.32 | Ryan Likes | Orange Julius is big out West, and I was excited to find one in the Monroeville Mall. Obviously, their recipes are the same, but it just didn't feel like the ones from back home. |
| Orient Express | 23 | $213.92 | Ryan LOVES | It amazes me how much money I spent at OE. It is another restaurant around the corner from my graduate office. I ate there at least once a week. It is really cheap Chinese, but you get a lot of food. It probably explains the extra 30 pounds I put on while going school! |
| P.F. Chang's | 4 | $262.00 | Lacy Likes, Ryan Dislikes | When Lacy was prego with Camille she could not get enough of P.F. Changs lettuce wraps. Also, back 2009 when Lacy and I were on a vegan kick we loved to go to P.F. Changs for their vegetarian dishes. It is a definite favorite, but quite expensive. I am thankful that Lacy got on the Internet and found a recipe that tastes just like P.F. Changs lettuce wraps. We now have it for dinner a lot, and I am not worried about going broke if we decide to get pregnant again. |
| Panara Bread | 15 | $233.27 | Kall Family Likes | Usually if I am bringing take out food home for dinner I have to stop at two restaurants--Boston Market for me, and Panara Bread for Lacy. She loves Panara Bread and always gets there chicken salad sandwich meal. Frankly, I think they are an overpriced bakery, with food that is mediocre, which is why I always go somewhere else for dinner (and, in my opinion, is why Lacy always ends up eating some of my dinner ;)). |
| Patron Mexicon Grill | 2 | $46.76 | Kall Family Likes | Having lived close to the Cali-Mexican border Lacy and I know what good Mexican taste like. Unfortunately, we are quite far from the border and most Mexican food in PA tastes like it. Lacy and I have found an Tex Mex restaurant, Patron Mexicon Grill, which is actually decent. We are fans of their fresh made tortilla chips and their salsa. Also, their cheese enchiladas is a fav of mine and the taco salad is a fav of Lacy's. |
| Pizza Hut | 6 | $202.34 | Lacy Likes, Ryan @$#% HATES | I have to out right say this, "I HATE PIZZA HUT!" Not dislikey, but genuinely hate this organization. Their food is average, but their service is horrid. Unfortunately, it is Lacy's favorite pizza to order online. However, every single time I order it is a nightmare. There are so many pizza places in this world that you shouldn't waste your time on one that doesn't treat their customers right. |
| Popeye's | 1 | $7.48 | Ryan Dislikes | Another restaurant that I am not a fan of. Lacy has never eaten at Popeye's and thankfully it is the same parking lot as Panera Bread so she hasn't ever been tempted. If you look at the above table you will see that I ate at Popeye's a total of two times. This is actually quite deceiving. I actually only ate their once, but used the credit card twice. I needed to get a second drink to swallow down the gross meal that I ordered. I strongly discourage anyone from eating at Popeye's, but if you must avoid their catfish sandwich at all cost! |
| Primanti Bros | 1 | $53.00 | Kall Family HATES | Lacy and I don't understand the fascination that Pittsburghans have with Primanti Brothers. In 2009 we used to take the missionaries from our church there, so that they could have an authentic experience. Each time we hated the food and the atmosphere. Yet, if you talk with anybody from Pittsburgh and ask them what restaurant you should visit while in town and they will tell you Primanti's. I think the marketing person at Primanti's headquarters should deserve a raise, because the food doesn't promote itself! |
| Qdoba | 2 | $20.65 | Kall Family Likes | You know how I mentioned that Pittsburgh doesn't have any great Mexican restaurants. Well, at one time Qdobas was the closest thing we could find that we liked. However, the one in our area will be closing down shortly, which is unfortunate. Sometimes you want Mexican but a sit down restaurant isn't convenient, and Taco Bell just doesn't satisfy the Mexican food hunger. |
| Quaker Steak & Lube | 1 | $24.13 | Kall Family Likes | We have only been to Quaker's once, but we were impressed. Personally, I think any restaurant that uses "Lube" in their title is questionable. However, after trying their many different sauces I just keep my opinions to my self and focus on eating the great food! |
| Quiznos | 4 | $52.14 | Kall Family Likes | Lacy and I have a debate over which sub place is better. I like Subway and she likes Quiznos. There is more choice at Subway, but I don't complain if we go to Quiznos either. Both are good, but I prefer to put more on my sandwich than Quiznos seems to give you. |
| Red Lobster | 3 | $192.00 | Kall Family Likes | I've decided that eating Red Lobster will be considered a sin in the next life. Mainly because you have to mortgage your first born to eat there (see most expensive award above). If this is the case than eating at Red Lobster will be at the top of the list of sins that sends me to Hell. I love to eat here, particularly when they have their all you can eat crab legs. Lacy likes it as well, though, not necessarily for the crab legs (she thinks it is too much work for so little reward). She is a big fan of their lobster and fish. Unfortunately, we only visit a few times a year, so not to completely spend Camille's entire college fund. |
| Red Robin | 2 | $74.00 | Kall Family Likes | I am actually surprised that we did not eat more at Red Robin for 2010. It is hands down Lacy's favorite restaurant, and though it isn't my favorite I do like it. However, the closest one we found is in Cranberry which is 40 minutes away (which explains why we only went twice last year). |
| Sbarro | 2 | $11.81 | Kall Family Likes | We have only eaten at Sbarro a few times and both times have been when we visited Monroeville Mall (just outside of Pittsburgh). It greasy pizza, but I think that's why we like it! |
| Silk Elephant | 1 | $176.09 | Ryan and Lacy Like | Lacy and I went to the Silk Elephant with my graduate friends after we won $10,000 for the best presentation in our program. We still haven't received the money yet (it will take several months before we do), but we spent money like we had $10,000 burning in our pockets. |
| Snackbar | 1 | $3.92 | Ryan Indifferent | The snackbar is a generic term for a small restaurant (if you can call it that) in Carnegie Mellon. I grabbed a sandwhich, brownie, and a water right before I went and took a Java programming midterm. I failed the midterm, I blame the brownie =); |
| Star of India | 1 | $12.00 | Ryan Likes | Another restaurant close to school. I really liked the food, but all my Indian friends hate it, and feel it is too greasy. Maybe the food is too close to American food for their taste, which would explain why I liked it =). |
| Starbucks | 3 | $18.36 | Ryan Dislikes | My graduate office was right above Starbucks. We would go to class and our peers would think we were avid coffee drinkers. This was probably true for some of the other students in my program, but being a staunch Mormon part of our health code is to not drink coffee. However, I have discovered that Starbucks has overpriced pastries, which on a few occasions I have given into. They are okay, but not worth the price. |
| Steak N Shake | 1 | $11.06 | Ryan Likes | I had never heard of Steak N Shake until we moved to Pittsburgh, but with one visit I am hooked. I need to Lacy here as well, because I think she will really enjoy it. |
| Subway | 52 | $420.10 | Ryan Likes, Depends on Lacy's mood. | I am actually surprised that I only ate 13 times at Subway for the last four months. Subway is my choice of preference for lunch, and the fact that it is so close to my office doesn't really help. I get the same sandwich, toasted wheat foot long--over roasted chicken--pepper jack cheese. With olives, onions, spinach, jalapenos, salt and pepper and spicy mustard. I also order a bag of Garden Salsa Sun Chips that I add to my sandwich. Hmmmm. . . . is it lunch yet! |
| Taco Bell | 31 | $310.49 | Lacy LIKES, Ryan is indifferent | The first thing I learned about Lacy when we began dating was the other lover she had in her life--Taco Bell. This is not an exaggeration. If I hadn't been so opposed she would have had Taco Bell cater our wedding reception. Personally, if I were to never eat at Taco Bell again, I would be just fine. |
| Taipei Tokyo | 8 | $495.00 | Kall Family Likes | Taipei Tokyo is one of the rare non-national chains that we indulge in. When it comes to the greatest Chinese food every Taipei Tokyo wins hands down. My favorite is their ground pepper filet mignon meal. I am coming to learn, though, as I write these reviews that my taste is rather expensive (at least for our budget). Taipei Tokyo should be on your bucket list when visiting Pittsburgh, but unless you are well off I wouldn't make it habit. |
| Uncle Sam's Sandwich Bar | 1 | $10.17 | Ryan Dislikes | I stopped by this restaurant after traveling 40 minutes to visit a Highmark insurance store front (another story for another time). The sandwhich I had was probably a 6 on a scale of 10, but the price was quite unrealistic. I should have listened to my wallet and walked away without getting anything. |
| Union Grill | 4 | $76.86 | Kall Family Dislikes | Union Grill is a Pittsburgh favorite. Lacy and I went there on a whim and found another reason why we just cannot call ourselves Pittburghnese. I think our taste buds have been too corrupted by the West to appreciate the cuisine of the Pitt. |
| Universal Pizza | 1 | $47.00 | Ryan Likes | I actually cannot comment on the food at Universal Pizza, since I bought a bunch of pizzas for some friends. However, I can tell you their customer service is fantastic. |
| Vocelli Pizza | 1 | $41.41 | Kall Family Dislikes | We have only had Vocelli Pizza once. I tried them out in my efforts to ween Lacy off of Pizza Hut. Vocelli Pizza turned out to not help in this effort. We ordered your basic vegetarian lover pizza, but the crust and the overall taste of the pizza wasn't that great. We learned when we had them deliver that we are in a dead zone. So, they told us that they will no longer deliver to us. I am glad to see that both we and Vocelli Pizza feel the same way. |
| W.G. Grinders | 1 | $160.86 | Lacy Likes, Ryan Dislikes | Lacy and I paid W.G. Grinders to cater our church activity in Columbus Ohio. It fed a lot of people and nobody complained about the food, which is a plus. However, I personally didn't think it was that great. Maybe I am too picky, because Lacy didn't mind it. Their long sub just didn't stand out to me. |
| Wendys | 34 | $276.72 | Kall Family Likes | Wendys was our overall winner for the most eaten at restaurant. I think this is because I am a fan of their breakfast foods. Sometimes I need to go to the office in the morning and I won't have time to eat breakfast. So, I will stop at Wendys and get their Panini meal (sometimes I miss breakfast on purpose ;)) |
| Zaiaka Authentic | 1 | 52.53 | Ryan Likes | I stumbled across this Indian restaurant while trying to kill some time in Plum, PA. It was quaint little place, but the food was incredible. I highly recommend it. |
So, there you have the eating habits of the Kall family. After pouring through the data in order to write this post, I must admit it is somewhat disheartening to see how much we have eaten out over the year. Hopefully, 2011 will be the year the Kall family learns that it is better to be a piggy bank than a piggy eater!
