Well, Joe, what kind of car do you drive? What brand of TV do you own? Do you buy the cheapest of everything? That is what you are advocating in your reply. Put brain in gear before putting keyboard in motion.
Oh, an by the way, I'll put my cooking skills up against just about anyone. I didn't work in restaurants for years and learn nothing.
Probably a Walmart shopper......

See if we did not tax the rich so much they would be eating these steaks and throwing us the scraps.

Best steak (my opinion) for the money is the 14oz. ribeye at Longhorns!(prefer mine WD with loaded potato -86 the sour cream)...and some of those onion things before the meal! Damn good bread too!
As I stated earlier, give Fleming's a try, but do it on Sunday. They used to have a prime rib special for $25. that included a nice piece of prime rib, potatoes, a vegetable, salad and dessert. That has changed to a selection from three entries, including the sides, salad and dessert for about $30. Any other night it would cost you $60-75. for the same meal.

Great service and makes your wife or date feel special. It's on corner of Lee Road and 17-92 in Winter Park.

So I give my opinion on a restaurant, and all you can do is dispute whether or not I ate there? What are you like the manager there or something?

Even registered Republicans, like myeslf, know that GW is an idiot.
This government check you are all giddy about...the billions that his is costing us is all borrowed from China! Bringing the US further into debt. And will do nothing for our economy. You are a shortsighted fool.
That's why I also used to be Repub but no more. I saw a bumper sticker that changed my life:' Working people who vote Republican are like chickens who support Colonel Sanders'. They can go eat all the Rush & Hannity pie they want, I'm off this crazy train.

That's a first, people desiring a recession! You pick that up on 580WDBO this morning? You can hang it up if you think Governor GW stimulus bill is going to help get a McBush elected. At the rate gas prices and food prices are going up those billions of dollars we're borrowing from the chinese to try to stimulate the economy will be shorted lived and spent in a matter 2 months if not days and come November 20, 2008 it will be long forgotten. And we got a long way to go for the GDP numbers come up any where nears China's GDP numbers. We're at the bottom of the list compared to 3rd world countries. How sad.
You are a mental midget. Even now, you're probably pleasuring yourself to Bill Maher. The US is still the largest economy in the world, dumbass. Nuff said

Thanks J.
Not a big prime rib guy. I prefer my cuts WD.

But will catalog the place for futures.

Lemme guess...you're the Kitchen manager?

:-)

If so...tell me about the prep?

Is the meat aged? I prefer not. Is it seasoned? Again...I prefer not.

MW grain-fed....or good ol' grass fed with NO HORMONES/STEROIDS is what I prefer.....

I honestly don't eat much red meat.

And when I do...I USUALLY bring home about 3/4 of it and it winds up being steak/eggs......steak on salad....grilled veggie with 'a bit of steak' wraps......

what extra do you know about the place?

Add the military to that list. The Republicans (including McCain) are opposing a revamped GI Bill.
There are still a few traditional small-government Republicans left but they hold little sway.

Not for long, retardo. Our economy is shrinking just as fast as it takes your wableyass to get off the couch to turn the channel to from Jerry Springer to Hannity.

Those few aught jump ship. They're outnumbered. The republican party today is worse than the old Federalist party was at the end. The old Federalists knew that ship was sinking and rode the Democratic-Republican party until they got it back together and broke that party in half. In other words: everybody into the Democratic party until it breaks in two again!(Hey, it worked last time.)

Not the Kitchen Manager; not even an employee. Just a great restaurant with exceptional service. It's a premium steakhouse; also has great fish. My wife go there for special occasions, birthdays, anniversary. We also go about every three months on a Sunday night.
I've eaten in most of the best steakhouses including Ruth's Chris. Flemings is better. Try the hot bacon salad.
