Welcome to the exclusive club!

Mind you, maybe Cap should be revoked since he doesn't cook or post food pics.

Again, since it’s hotter than balls in the DelVal, went for a light dinner. Marinated swordfish steak, asparagus and watermelon salad.

Fish was done in some olive oil, lemon zest, rosemary and red pepper flakes.

watermelon salad is great for the summer and easy. Watermelon, lime juice, basil and feta cheese to add that salt.

Oh my god that sounds terrible. Hard pass on two thirds of that plate.

Swordfish. One of the best.

Your actual plates impress me.

Fine. I won’t share.

These we got when we first moved into the place a decade ago. Still hanging on strong.

Watermelon salad is underrated as f***. Such a refreshing munch.

I'm not a swordfish fan, but had you told me that was chicken I'd probably have dug right in. Looks delicious.

@Surrounded By Ahos I'm gonna be in the Raleigh area in a few weeks - any recommendations on food or drink?

Needed an easy one tonight so taco salads it is.

Assuming you're not going to be down to Pittsboro, but if so, hit S&T Soda Shop.

 

[Lord Defect]

Nope. Just suggesting dirtbag strip clubs outside of camp Lejeune to get you in hot water when you suggest to go to those bars. Then I felt bad, kind of.

Try the tortilla strips, they go perfectly onto of taco salad.

 

[Lord Defect]

Oh, if you have laundry to do, and want a beer, swing by buds and suds.
I wouldn’t go Friday or Monday though.

I looked. Most of them are closed apparently.

I like to use the Tostitos to scoop up some salad. I do have tortilla strips for when I do a SW chicken salad though.

Oh boy. That's a fun question. So many choices.

For fast food, 0bviously try Bojangles if you haven't had it before. The Cajun Filet Biscuit Combo is a little slice of heaven on earth. Just make sure to get unsweet tea.

If you do go drinking, hitting up Cookout after is basically a rite of passage. A cookout tray will provide you with all sorts of food and a fantastic milkshake for like $6. Waffle House is also acceptable, but tends to be significantly more sketchy.

There's also a local chain called Guasaca which sells arepas, which are basically pancakes that are sliced open and filled with meat. They are quite delicious.

For a real sit-down meal, I'd check out Caffe Luna which is a fantastic little Italian place downtown or Relish, which is a bit to the north, and has a pretty wide range of food and drink, plus their have a constantly rotating test menu that always has something fun on it.

There's also a local legend called Player's Retreat, and while I've never actually eaten there, I've heard it's amazing. They grind their own beef in house so it's possible to order a burger rare


As far as wetting you whistle, we've got a World of Beer and a Yard House, but I'd skip those and hit the Raleigh Beer Garden if possible. They have a ludicrous selection of beer. Just look at it: Raleigh Beer Garden: Beer Menu

The Flying Saucer is also a fun place to check out.

My personal favorite sports bar is called the Brickhouse, although I haven't been in ages due to Covid.

I haven't been since it just opened, but I feel like you're pretty obligated to go to Bates Battaglia's new bar, Teets, which I think I mentioned here.

Boxcar is a barcade which is a lot of fun.


Of course, the crown jewel of food in the area is the Angus Barn. It's truly an experience. On top of their dining rooms, they have a lounge for eating/drinking and a lounge for smoking cigars. It's a bit on the expensive side, but holy hell is it worth it. They do a fantastic job of balancing being upscale and homey. I cannot recommend it enough.

Making this club means, I won a free steak every time you make those things. Just like Tripod when he won, I get lobster. Dave , his winnings to me are his farts, which I turn back to all of you.

No problem! Just remember it's a very incomplete list. I totally forgot about the Morgan Street Food Hall, which is a giant cafeteria housing a ton of different restaurants.
