Food and Drink -- Do any of you still go to Long John Silvers? - Page 14

I went last week & thought about you all.

Chicken planks are really good if you haven't had them in 10+yrs. I also like Diet Pepsi to Diet Coke, these days.

Now that you say that, yes of course. It's obvious that it's cornmeal.

Had a buddy in high school that worked at one and I could have sworn he told me they were made out of something that could basically be bought at a grocery store and fried. But thinking about it, he must have either been full of shit, or my memory is off.

Mmmm... crab cakes.....

This is Claude. Claude is a 15-pound Monster Tasmanian Crab recently caught off the shores of Tasmania that was on his way to an industrial-size steamer before being bought by a British Aquarium for Ł3,000 (~$4,800). Claude's shell is 15-inches across and it's estimated he's large enough to make 160 crabcakes BUT WILL CONTINUE TO GROW until he's almost 30 pounds and another three inches wide.

No, he's right. Corn meal is going to be in every major grocery store but I prefer hush puppy mix.

Here's a common brand:

She's holding it like that and it's not dead? Fuck that. Claude must be a very mellow crab.

Being that large, its speed is probably on par with Thomas Jones.... you wouldn't be in much danger.

Sure, maybe so. I used to go crabbing and I know what the little fuckers can do.

There are certain animals that I'm just not going to mess with. A bear. A honey badger. A crab. There are probably more.

Come to think of it, anything that is related to a wolverine...just leave it the hell alone.

I last ate there in about 1997 on the way home from a chiefs game. Needed to soak up some beer. Big mistake. Big

I've eaten there maybe once in the past 10 years. I decided to go because i had fond childhood memories of their Hush Puppies. They weren't nearly as good as i remembered them being.

It's interesting to note that most everyone in this thread only eats there once every few years. I'm going to guess the majority of people are like that.
