I went to Conor O'Neill's on Friday for a "late lunch" after a long walk with a friend. Sat outside. It's fabulous because the city has completely closed the usually busy Main Street to traffic so restaurants can expand covid-safely onto the pavement. I'm going again tomorrow night (well I guess later tonight) to meet a couple of friends I haven't seen for a while, one of whom is very cautious because she has elderly parents in assisted living housing. Probably the last night it will still be warm enough to eat outside comfortably in the evening.

I like their Spicey Chicken Sandwich but 700 calories is a bit rough.

I'm needing to make some adjustments so I've cut out Dunkin and maybe my rare Popeyes run should be extinct. My body craves garbage this time of year.

I'm amazed that Popeye's fried chicken (with their green beans as a side) doesn't cause a more noticeable rise in my BGL. Negligible.

It's been a long time since I ate any kind of fried chicken, but I seem to recall Popeye's being much more of a skin-with-a-light-dusting-of-flour, compared to the thick batter of KFC and others. (Didn't KFC have both "crispy" and "original," with the latter being much closer to what Popeye's serves?)

Popeye's should surely only serve spinach drizzled in Olive Oyl?

We went to Traxx at Greek Peak on our way home from Hoxie Gorge today.

We went with friends to Friday Friends and we sat outside last night. The only reason we went out is because I offered to cook dinner and our guy friend felt sorry for me, so he agreed to go out. Bless him. His gf wanted to go out and he's been refusing since quarantine started in March. Then afterward we went to get some ice cream. Yuum. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c61a57fa8e.jpg

That is a fair sized crow, he and his buddies were entertaining us at lunch.

Disneyland is now lobbying Sacramento to open. Mickey's out of patience.

Me and my friend went to the buffet again yesterday :)

I had probably the biggest plate of mac and cheese I had ever had there........ Plus sweet and sour chicken as always and Onion Rings (They didnt have them out the other times)

Dude111 10-06-2020 12:18 AM

Me and my friend went to the buffet again on Monday :)

The onion rings werent quite as good,seemed like they had been sitting there for awhile (Not fresh) but what was left of them was good....(Sadly they didnt put anymore out before I was done)

Dude111 11-02-2020 06:39 PM

Today me and my friend went to the buffet :)

I was super hungry......I had a big plate of mac and cheese (Which wasnt very warm) and loads of sweet and sour chicken :)

Dude111 11-12-2020 08:09 PM

Me and my friend went to the buffet today :)

Man was I hungry........ I had a huge plate of sweet and sour chicken,a huge plate of pudding and a big plate of mac and cheese (Which was basically cold,not that good)

The chicken was the best I ever had! (I couldnt believe how soft it was)

captainhook455 11-16-2020 09:39 AM

How about outdoor restaurants? I went to a food trailer and the cheapest on the menu was $25. Sheesh I started to leave and a young lady in line said it was very good. Ok I'll try it which was a whole king crab over 6 large garlic sauteed shrimp over sausage and rice.

Yes thats fine,thank you for the entry.....

Me and my friend went to the buffet again today...... Not as hungry as I was last week but I still had a good meal and the mac and cheese bin was the fullest I ever saw it!! (And nice and warm also)

captainhook455 11-18-2020 08:22 AM

So I went to Seamons on US 9 just down the road from Myrtle Beach. They have king crab all you can eat for $26, but I just had some. I did the buffet with the best mac & cheese on the planet for $13.
