McDonald's i95 Exit 8 Hardeeville South Carolina

We stopped by this McDonalds today. Huge mistake. 

Garbage cans overflowing. Bathrooms a mess and out of toilet paper. The line for orders was across the lobby and the line waiting for orders was longer. People from the drive thru were coming in to complain. They had run out of coffee and immediately brew more yet people were waiting. A McCafe order for a German couple just on the McCafe work area forgotten while they stood waiting. After a long wait I finally received my order: the accidentally doubled my cookie order, yet forgot the nuggets. And when I complained, she tossed me the nuggets and turned away before I could remind her I needed sauce.

The attached minimart was well stocked and the cashier was very friendly.

But the McDonalds was horrible! I give this a 1 out of 5, and will forever avoid it.

Ruby Tuesday Parmesan Chicken Pasta

The Ruby Tuesday Parmesan Chicken Pasta  is basically penne pasta with marinara sauce over the pasta and then a layer of alfredo sauce, breaded chicken, and mozzarella cheese on top and then bake  in the oven until the cheese melts.

My dish was heavy on the mozzarella, light on the marinara, and the Alfredo sauce was undetectable. There was little sauce for the penne, so, unless there was melted cheese on it, the penne was just plain pasta.

I give this dish a 2 out of 5. It is unlikely I will ever order it again unless I was really hungry for mozzarella cheese melted over penne noodles.

Ruby Tuesday of Pompano Beach 299 sw 26th

We recently visited this restaurant for a second time in two years. 

The restaurant seems to cater mostly to the elderly. The salad bar was well stocked, but food items had spilt and weren't cleaned up. And the salad bar was out of sesame seeds.

The restaurant had run out of glasses so our drinks were served in styrophom cups.

We arrived at 7:30 on a Sunday. We had to wait a long time for our seats and a very long time for our food.

Our waiter was very attentive. However we ordered a hamburger with only ketchup and mustard and instead it arrived with only lettuce, tomato, and pickle. The waiter quickly fixed the problem with ample supply of both ketchup and mustard.

The restrooms were reasonable. There was graffiti that hadnt been cleaned and the restroom was over due for service.

On a sale of 5, I would give this restaurant a 3: I would eat at it again (mostly because I like the Ruby Tuesday chain) but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat there.

Bill Gray's World's Greatest Cheeseburger

I am not saying this is the World's greatest cheeseburger. Bill Gray's is saying it. In fact, they named the cheeseburger: The World's Greatest Cheeseburger. I would beg to differ... At a later time.
The cheese burger is served on a hardroll with your choice of toppings, which include their signature hot sauce (shown served on the side).

The cheeseburger is very good. Hard roll was fresh. Their American Cheese is thick and creamy.

I know many people live their cheeseburger and go to Bill Gray's specifically for it. But not me. I give it a 3 out of 5, which means I'll order it if I can't find something else I would rather have on the menu.

Mighty Taco: The Taco

Several decades ago, boutique Mexican restaurants received new competition from the fast food movement. Giants like Taco Bell spread across the country providing mass produced Mexican style fast food.

In that blaze of fast food came a local hero in Buffalo New York: Mighty Taco! Their commercials chanting "Mighty Taco" was a call to a new generation who understood they had something unique and special.

Their taco was different from the popular Taco Bell. TW meat filling was spicier. And instead of sprinkling shredded cheese on top of the taco, they placed a slice of cheese between the shell and the meat. That simple change in placement of the cheese causes the taco to have a creamy cheese taste.
The taco picture is shown with a crunchy shell and no lettuce, tomato or sour cream, options that cost a bit more but are well worth it.

Mighty Taco is the best fast food Taco I have ever had. I rate it a 5 out of 5, which means I would go out of my way to order a taco at Might Taco.

Bill Gray's Egg Sandwich

There is more to eat at Bill Gray's than just burgers! How about an egg sandwich any time of the day?
I love an egg sandwich served on a hard roll. This double egg sandwich comes with cheese and your choice of meat (shown with bacon). This could be the best deal on the menu: only $3.50 (compared to a $4.50 cheeseburger or a $5.50 bacon cheeseburger).

These sandwiches are irresistible. I give it a 5 out of 5, which means I will almost always order one and would be willing to drive out of my way to get one.

Burger King Spicy Chicken Sandwhich

Every time I go to Burger King, I look for my favorite Burger King sandwich: The Chicken Parm. It is a special sandwich offered only for limited times. The Chicken Parm is a variation of their classic chicken sandwich. Burger King has several different variations including a Spicy Chicken sandwich.
Unlike most people, I don't like a lot of heat and prefer a mild spice to everything. I found the heat in this Sandwich to be barely noticeable. That means if I though it was too mild, it will be unnoticeable to everyone else.

Except for that problem, the sandwich was good (in the classic chicken way). The sandwich never looks like the advertisement - the bun is flat, mayo is carelessly applied, and the lettuce falls away. But these flaws are the beauty that is a Burger King chicken sandwich.
