The Vortex still open? Greatest burgers!!!

Yep.

I ate an entire burrito from Moe's Southwest Grill while wearing my corset.

Worst. Culinary/Fashion. Decision. Ever.

Yeah, I did that in New Orleans at K-Paul's in May. I had to excuse myself from the partying a little early several hours later...

(I might be encouraged to go to Fogo de Chao's. I never got to go to the one in Baltimore.)

The thing with burgers is that many places claim to serve a gluten free burger when it's really just a burger without a bun which is totally lame. I mean, how could that possibly be preferable to a steak? There are a few places that actually serve a burger on a gluten free bun but they are definitely in the minority.

This would be great if it wasn't $50 a person.

Lunch at Fogo de Chao is $30/person!

Man, that made me so happy that I could even put on Dragonforce and Freedom Call for the rest of the day.

I could swear to God it was $49.95/person.

You can do the buffet for around $20.

Just as a note, they don't serve lunch on Saturday.

I'd be in on going Friday for lunch.

Sucks about Saturday, but I'm down for Friday. Let's make it a cool PP group lunch.

And yes, I'll order in Portuguese for everyone

BTW, there are 2 other places you can go to, including Fire of Brazil and Sal Grosso (my favorite when I still ate meat). They both do lunch on Saturdays, but Sal Grosso might be a bit of a drive from the PP venue.

Oh cool, I didn't know about these places. Are they also Rodizio-style Churrascarias, or a-la-carte?

 

[OrbWeaver]

They changed their menu design in stores to where basically there isn't one. If you aren't familiar with what they already serve, you have no idea what's in their food (unless you check the website). There's just obscure names for things with no explanations...

My friends down here all love going to Moe's...I just moved here.

I hate Moe's.

I love Moe's! It's just a bad idea to eat an entire Moe's burrito while wearing something that constricts your core. And then having to deal with the invisible barking spiders later...

I'm rolling into town mid/late-afternoon Friday so I'm hoping they are Churrascarias so we can do a Saturday lunch at one. :/

Let's do Sal Grosso then. Hopefully it's not too friggin' far. Especially with this deal just posted above.

BTW Thanks Jen!

Looks like up I-75 just outside of the beltway. Ok, if you are piling people into cars....

I'm already at the festival and I don't carry any bars.

Also, Mellow Mushroom offers gluten free pizza, there's also R. Thomas, which has all "organic" and more than likely has a gluten free menu, as well.

$32.50; $22.50 salad bar only (best salad bar on the planet)

I'd go, but I'll be coaching a football game before PP Saturday.

Yeah man, I miss that restaurant. It's been too many years since the last time I made it to Fogo. Maybe you can join us next year.

 

[BABS]

I have been trying to get people to go with me there for years now...with no luck. Where the hell have you and Milton been when I was looking? I just can't go on Friday or I won't be able to squeeze into my corset later. lol

So true Alicia - remember last year I wanted to go and no one could be found (ha ha). btw, what day is Vortex day????
