Hello! The wife, dog, and I are taking a road trip through oregon and washington along the I-5 in a couple weeks. Wondering if anyone might have some input on roadside stands/restaurants with patios/etc that are ok with having a...

I have been very busy, and haven’t been following the board very closely for about a month or so... but I did see that first message, posted by Jim H, before I got so tied up, and was surprised to see that it elicited such...

was talking really fast and agitated so I missed her exact comment. I know this isn’t a big deal and it usually isn’t. I wasn’t trying to be a pain in the butt. I guess it’s a pet peeve when you go to a...

's not as if I don’t have my share of pet linguistic peeves, like “data” being plural.

Does this irk anyone else, or is it just me? It seems like bad form to be jamming wadded napkins under the leg of a table or chair and yet, I’d almost prefer that to having a shipboard-type experience of sliding plates,...

Went to Granita (in Islington, Upper St.) last night. Wasn’t expecting much (I didn’t book it...) and it met my expectations. However, it did refresh my memory of two of my top restaurant gripes. 1) Expensive visual...

Anyone know of any pet-friend restaurant in Madison, WI?? Or outdoor seating area that allows pets?

Looking for a place for a Sunday Brunch that will accommodate a small dog. 4 People. I’m guessing it should have outside seating for this if we have a dog. Drinks included in the Brunch Menu a plus!

for the dogs... We were suprised to see how many people had brought their dogs....it was much more enjoyable than a Sunday Morning at the dog park. Any other patios in town that are pet friendly?

I just posted on another thread about a place that serves Fried Chicken & Waffles. The dish sounded very appealing to me since I love fried chicken and the waffles were made with jalapenos which I also adore. (I just double...

“I’m vacationing with my family in Emilia-Romagna, Italy and we would love some killer Thai. Any suggestions?” or “Will be in Lyon, France next month. Where can I get great fish and chips?” or “Will I be able to get any Japanese...

I am with you and it is one of my major pet peeves as well. Not that I have any need to be eating french fries these days but I so hate the starchy coating. They almost all do it around here except McDonalds. Probably better for...
