    Fried Pickle chips from Hooters are better than the ones at Wings and More, although the ones from Wings and More are good.

    My wife seconds your liking for the southwest eggrolls from Chili's...

    I like the appetizers sampler @ America's, a bit pricey @ $20 but worth it.

    Fried Green Bean (of all things) at Friday's

    Willie's Queso @ Willie's Icehouse

    Fried Pickle Spears @ Katz's



    Speaking of fancy appetizers - does anyone actually eat fried plantains? I mean, ick, it has to be the nastiest thing ever put on a plate..

    Haven't these been around for years? Unless they've been completely recreated, I'm not impressed with them.

    Well, if they've been redone, I may well have to try them, although my girl loathes Chili's. I had a hard enough time getting her to go to Pappadeaux's tonight!

    Supposedly they will open up a second location next to the currently being remodeled kiddie train station at herman park.

    That will be a nice place to hang out with the family when it opens in the spring.

    Damn, this thread is making me hungry. Especially since there are like hundreds of places that sell Vietnamese Eggrolls just down the street from me.

    I love that fish sauce, here's a tip. Ask for extra then pour it on rice. Thank me later.
