new yorkers think having an american, chinese, indian, italian, and mexican restaurant to choose from makes them unique. im not even kidding i saw a new yorker tweet that those choices can only be found in new york city
They also think they have the best of all of the above, they do not. I was there last month the pizza was ass I’ve had better from just about every other state I’ve been to, and they have fuck all for good soul food. Ask a New Yorker for some grits, biscuits and gravy, fried spaghetti, porkchop sandwiches, or collards and watch their fucking head spin. Then ask about barbecue, and when they answer, ask what style that barbecue is and the head twists right off because half of them don’t know Memphis style from Western NC style if they even knew there were different styles at all.
Then they move anywhere and get pissed off that other places aren’t the exact same as NYC, go the fuck back then idiot!
Fair and I don’t disagree. Hush puppies are pretty good and when you’re road-tripping, it’s a nice option to have. My wife went to Wake Forest and introduced me to Cook Out. I’d seen the billboards over the years and never paid it much attention. When I was in grad-school in Northern Virginia, I would drive down to South Florida regularly and Cook Out was great for that run. Better than most fast food on the way (unless I was willing to actually stop for a bit, then I’d hit up Waffle House)

Lol, the old “American food is the best because we have every kind of cuisine”. Oh sweety, that’s just every city now.
Lol, maybe if it was 1980.

I’m in a small town in southern North Carolina. I’ve got all that plus 2 Peruvian, and 2 Thai, within a 5 minute drive.
Plus you guys get Cook Out!
Never got the hype. It’s like a backyard burger at best.
It’s cheap which is nice but… That’s about it. IMHO.
