    Yeah, I didn't think Barry's Chicken Fry was anything to write home about either.

    scotplum,

    It's because they've only been in Norman for about a year or so. They used to be in Noble.

    Ah ha! Well, then I'll definitely need to check it out. Probably a good thing it wasn't there when I was in school then. :)

    Bob's BBQ. Only one dork I know didn't like it. But, he did win an intramural national football championship and is one heck of a bowler, so I'll let it slide.

    I'll say it - Barrys Chicken Ranch flat out sucked. So what? I wouldn't want Bob Stoops to work on my car; we all have our place.

    That place has the best catfish I've had. When I was a kid we used to go there whenever we visited our lake property.

    Good times.

    Brianna's for the tortilla soup.
    Tower of the Americas Restaurant for the view.
    Jailhouse Cafe for the SAPD Special.
    Happy Guy for the General Tso's Chicken.
    Fajita booth at NIOSA because it's even more fun to work the booth than to go as a customer.

    There is also a place in San Antonio called Houston Street Bistro over by the children's museum. I have dreams about the ravioli I had there for lunch one day. Everything there was awesome.

    My story about that place is the day we went it was raining. Me my wife and son walked in wearing shorts and T-shirts and I was soaking wet because I let my son have my umbrella and all of our hair was all frizzy because of the rain (and it was about 95 degrees to boot). Well, everyone there was wearing a business suit, the waiters and staff were all wearing black slacks white shirts and black ties and there were tablecloths on the table. The host asks us how many and I replied "Nevermind, we are way underdressed for here." He said "NONSENSE! You are in San Antonio - everyplace is casual here. This is just the business crowd, so don't worry about it." Well, of course we sit down and look at the menu and there is no child's menu. I asked the waiter if they had plain spaghetti for the boy and he said "Well, not really but I will ask the chef what we can do." So the chef whips up some angel hair pasta with a nice marinara sauce for him that wasn't even on the menu and they only charged us like 4 bucks. And it was awesome too.

    I ended up tipping the waiter like 30% because they worked so hard for us and the food was so good. I never get that kind of service here.
