That was the other place I ate. I went back after my first five years in Wisconsin and they said they had missed me.TurdBomber said:
I consumed about 200 lbs of MSG at the China First restaurants BITD.creepycoug said:Two places I miss are the Last Exit on Brooklyn, on the west end of campus down toward old Mercer and Terry-Lander. I discovered coffee there. To be more precise, I discovered the mocha coffee there and thereby started on the road to becoming a fat ass with that habit. Nipped that in the bud.
A pack of us also used to eat at Orange King pretty much every day. That place could also make you into a fat fuck, what with all the rice plates. Good shit though. MSG factory, but good.
Remember Schultzy's fondly, and yes, the Lincoln Kennedy record sign stood there for years. I'd have assumed it would still be there. Who could break that record? @CFetters_Nacho_Lover or @CfettersNachoLover - either one of you two fat asses? Anything to add?
I still have heartburn from it. It may have burned a hole in me. -
I'll never forget the night my underage roommate panicked when Rocky at Lenny's - with zero interest in carding him - asked him what he wanted and he frighteningly blurted out "I'll have a Vodka Collins." Rocky patiently put her hand in his shoulder and said, "We only serve beer and wine here, Honey."
Great fucking rainy day bar for Jalapeño Petters (4 for a quarter - I think it was) washed down with Rainier Drys for 2 or 3 games of pool.
Those were the fucking days, gents. -
I got kicked out of Dante's in 2005 or 2006. It's the only bar I was ever bounced from. The bartender was a douche.

I had a fake Alaska DL with my picture on it from the time I was 19. The first time I went out with it was at the phoenix underground downtown. I was weirdly nervous at the bar and asked for a whiskey sour. The bartender, annoyed as fuck, waved his hand at the wall, void of bottles but with a row of taps and proceeded to ignore me for the next 20 minutes.TurdBomber said:I'll never forget the night my underage roommate panicked when Rocky at Lenny's - with zero interest in carding him - asked him what he wanted and he frighteningly blurted out "I'll have a Vodka Collins."

Bundy's Favorite Hangout. Friend of mine got in a fistfight downstairs playing pool and broke his hand on a guys skull.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:I got kicked out of Dante's in 2005 or 2006. It's the only bar I was ever bounced from. The bartender was a douche.
How either of them even had room to throw a punch in that tight-squeeze area surprises me to this day. -
It was a big deal back in the day. On one occasion I recall waiting in line to be seated with some friends when Chip Hanauer blasted past us. Those of us in line were pissed, we thought he had cut in front of us, a few folks even made some nasty remarks only to find out he was meeting some people who already had a table. He turned out to be very cordial, Anyway, cool place back in the day.DerekJohnson said:

Northlake was great as a broke, hungry college kid. As an adult there are far better choices for good food.DoogerMcFarland said:
I don’t know that I fully agree re: Schultzy’s, but they have the best fries I’ve ever had.PostGameOrangeSlices said:
Shultzy's is so good. Best German food in Seattle.haie said:The Rat and the Raven dies.
The College Inn died for awhile. Will go back there next year.
Shultzy's was basically dead in 2021. It's back thankfully.
BigTime could only let in 30 people at a time in 2021 instead of the proper packed in fuckfest that it was this year.
Finn's survived throughout all of it so that it could usher out players from the team. The trashiest place out of all of them.
College Inn is what it is...a bar.
Honestly, U District bar scene has sucked ass for forever
I also loved The Rat and the Raven. I went there at midnight the day I turned 21, and then ended my formal 21-run there the next night.
I somehow never went to Northlake Tavern and am sad that I didn’t.
Sad times, indeed. -
I still eat Dicks. And not just once in a while either.RoadTrip said:Dicks, Kid Valley, Lox Stock and Bagel need honorable mentions

It really was. I remember that time. The pizza took on a legend of its own. People talked about it all the time, which was almost too much of a set-up. Pizza can only be so good. It was pretty good pizza if you're not a thin-crust person. Kind of sloppy but good. I recall it being expensive, but everything seemed expensive in those days.Southerndawg said:

Orange King sadly died many years ago. Used to have a great shitty cheeseburger with fries.

Well the biscuits at 2am were more like ham hogs but who's judging that deep in?TurdBomber said:
