The first one to answer McDonalds gets a kick in the nuts.

Thanks all. Diner actually has been claimed by someone else so hot dogs it is! - spamlet Apr 14, 09:06 1

At some point you have to take them to Ted Drewes. -- nm - pmb Apr 14, 09:00 2
- Or come up north and go to Fritz's for the good stuff. :) -- nm - Jim Apr 14, 09:06 1
  - I do like Fritz's but there's a place in Overland that's pretty good too. - spamlet Apr 14, 09:24
Somewhere that does sandwiches. Cheesesteaks, Reubens, meatball subs, corned beef sandwiches, etc -- nm - Roger More Apr 14, 08:57 1

  - I could get on board with Trainwreck....but Olivette Diner - is that the place on Olive that was on the Head East album cover back in the day? - Jim Apr 14, 09:06 2
    - Yeah it is. Our admin claimed it though so it's back to Woofies on a nice day. - spamlet Apr 14, 09:07 1
      - Ahhh...Woofies. Excellent choice. And should be pretty quick too. -- nm - Jim Apr 14, 09:07
- I was thinking something like Syberg's or Granite City Brewery - pub-ish food. -- nm - Jim Apr 14, 08:53 2
  - I do not think of a pub as American, though. UK. -- nm - Spawn Apr 14, 08:54
  - Oh shit...O'Connell's down on The Hill. They pretty much have burgers and burgers. Awesome burgers too. -- nm - Jim Apr 14, 08:54
Wrigley Field :) -- nm - oblique Apr 14, 08:47
Screw your IM, McDonalds is the correct answer. -- nm - Spawn Apr 14, 08:46 6

  - Okay, then I would go to Longhorn Steakhouse or something like that. -- nm - Spawn Apr 14, 08:55 2
    - you live in a bleak world of sub-par chain restaurants - decline Apr 14, 08:57 1
      - I live in a world that is obsessed with a rather disgusting act. - Spawn Apr 14, 09:03
- Did you see mention on B2 of cupcakes with strawberry, cinnamon, and balsamic vinegar? How freaked out did that make you? -- nm - zork Apr 14, 08:47 1
  - No, but as I am not even sure what one of those is and I am sorta anti-cupcake it is fine. -- nm - Spawn Apr 14, 08:51
Local hot dog stand/burger place -- nm - CQ Apr 14, 08:45 7
- I think this is my backup. There's a great hot dog stand not too far from here. -- nm - spamlet Apr 14, 08:47 5
  - all the restaurants around and you are going to make him eat a fucking hot dog? (and standing up?!) -- nm* - Beaker Apr 14, 08:48 4
    - (and outside, no real seating inside) -- nm - spamlet Apr 14, 08:51
    - Either that or greasy spoon diner :) - spamlet Apr 14, 08:50 2
      - Golden Corral! "you mean I can just keep eating?" "It's the American way" -- nm - Beaker Apr 14, 08:54
      - definitely greasy spoon -- nm - decline Apr 14, 08:52
