throughout the meal, although several people ordered iced tea, soft drinks, wine, etc. When the luncheon was over, the check came. It included a $72 charge just for the water! At the time I was a graduate student and $72 could...

us separate checks for every meal. We could get the check split in any permutation/combination we desired. This made a moot point of the hated after meal ritual of splitting up the check. Every time I’ve asked for separate...

Those are St Joseph’s day sfinge. They are sometimes made of split fried zeppole & sometimes baked pastry made in both the round & the tapered rectangle shape. Sometimes the sfinge are garnished with a strip of candied...

a big eater, and I barely finished this one. If I were to do it again, I would split this along with an appetizer and maybe a soup or noodle dish. We can definitely see ourselves going back here, but unless we are with our...

was awful. however, the bun was grilled nicely and the greens, etc. were fine. spouse had roast chicken w/ a bread/mushroom base which was pretty good. we split a bottle of some reisling style from the all-cali wine menu which...

Ok, this is a loaded question (well to me since I would just put my gift card towards the table check and split it down the middle.) So, I hope I phrase this properly! I bought a bunch of friends $25 dining out cards from...

We now have more specific boards for international destinations, if you have recently posted something on the International board and cannot find your posting, please check the relative specific board (i.e. the France board for...

tactical suggestion: It helps a LOT to be the person who grabs the check first. It’s much easier to be the first to suggest splitting the bill in an equitable manner than to have to “dissent” when someone else...

In Oxnard, Check out Tacos La Costa. A very small place off Saviers Road, Right across the street from the Oxnard DMV location. It gets pretty packed at that place, and its pretty good. You could also try El Taco De Mexico also...
