more falafel please posted:

like a salad with lettuce, tomato, onion, some pickled hot peppers, some provolone cubes, some ham and salami cubes, maybe some giardinera oil, croutons, and a vinaigrette? that sounds like a pretty good salad and it's also a deconstructed Italian sub
Lose the croutons and it's basically an antipasto.

Gumby's Pizza here in Gainesville:



It's literally *exactly* what you described to a T, just minus the crust. Aluminum pan, sauce on the bottom, cheese, toppings, tossed in the oven. Served with a spoon.

There's like 82 more "bowl" flavors listed, these were just the first to pop up.

yeah I used to eat Gumby's in college and man they make some good/massive pizza. Also open super late, but one time they didn't deliver for 2hours past when we ordered and we got our pizza at 2am.

Reminds me of the Rutger's grease trucks, of which the Fat Darrell was the most famous sandwich:

quote:

These inexpensive sandwiches (originally only $1 more than a regular hamburger) with the "sides" included within steadily rose in popularity, but the "Fat Cat" would remain the top seller until 1997, when a student named Darrell W. Butler created the "Fat Darrell" consisting of chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, French fries, and marinara sauce. Butler told USA Today, "Like the typical college student, I was pretty much broke. I had been craving chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks and French fries all week long but I knew that I didn't have enough money to buy all three. I talked the guy behind the counter into putting them all onto a piece of bread for me. I guess it sounded like a good idea because the next 10 or so people all asked for the same thing."

To be fair, the fat Darrell/bronco is just a kinda stoner version of a chx parm sandwich, just with fries tossed in

Fat sandwiches always suck. They just take things that are supposed to be crispy and makes them limp and moist.

indeed. i have strong feelings about chili although i'm pretty laid back wrt recipes for such, there's a lot of wiggle room. but that poo poo is not chili. there oughta be a law.

All frozen sauced pasta looks like poo poo.

The bags of pasta ice cubes literally look like turds when you drop them on the sauce pan.

I had a connecting flight through Cincinnati once and tried Skyline just for the novelty. I don't recall it being particularly memorable.

I don't like it when you're watching me eat.
I grew up with it, so I have a special place in my memory for it. I miss it from time to time. The frozen ones are OK, and a close enough reminder.

Weird thing about living in Florida is you're surrounded by retirees who moved there from places like Cincinnati and Chicago and New York, so within 15 miles of me I have a Joey D's and a Portillo's if I want an Italian beef, a Skyline if I want weird :airquote: chili :airquote: spaghetti and oyster crackers I can fill with drops of hot sauce, and aUtHeNtIc NY pizza places selling heatlamp slices as far as the eye can see

if you think of it as more like pastichio it makes sense. again, the fact that it's called "chili" instead of "spiced meat/tomato sauce" is what makes it weird, the dish itself is good

Cinnamon as an addition to an otherwise properly-spiced chili con carne sounds okay, it would add some interesting notes.

You need to be REAL careful about the quantity because it goes from notes to overpowering very quickly.

BTW the atmosphere in there is equally odd, if you dine in. You sit down and are served at your table and they fuss over you and refill your drink and stuff. And while I was eating various people came in and the waiters greeted them with exchanges like "So how've you been doing?" "Better" and "4-way, 3-way, pepsi, right?" If they don't recognize you they ask if you need a menu, and you're expected to know all the little rituals like with the hot sauce and so on. People make a real routine of this apparently
