I prefer the restaurants that understand quantity along with quality. Too often you just get a small portion while others get a take home portion of their pasta. Maggiano's is the first restaurant that came to mind. I love Maggiano's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 My wife loves Lasagna and we have gone to several nice italian restaurants but for some reason she loves Olive Garden over everything else. It is good but I like Maggiano's by far. I love a good chicken Parm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife not a fan of Olive Garden so haven't been there in many years. I do like them, however- even the endless salad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe_Hoopsier Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 The obviously overlooked question is what prompted this topic? Did you just decide to throw it against the wall to see if it sticks? I'm here all week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 You guys are pushing the boundaries with Chef-Boy-R-Dee...Never was a fan of any of it... Now Stouffer's double meat lasagna isn't half bad for a microwave dish... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 I was probably an odd kid but somebody had to eat all the canned goods and MRE's bought for world ending events like Y2K. My stepdad was a prepper before prepping wasnt...well it's never been cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 So... a few days back. I chose to order some Lou Malnati's deep dish and Italian beef from Chicago. Upon checking... I found that I ordered 4 boxes... instead of one. Decided not to correct the order... almost $500. Why change it ? Arrived today (Dec. 9). Mrs. mile took one box to HSN member... Waffle Head Fred as a Christmas present. And will be doing deep dish from Chicago tonight. Ummm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I lived up that way, my youngest daughter and I would go to the Malnati's in Evanston before or after the game when IU visited Welsh-Ryan...It does go well with IU basketball!

Loved the one in downtown Naperville that use to be a firehouse, too... Been there many a time. Had my sons family birthday party there once. Even though many of the restaurants around here are closed, they (Nap loc.) were open for dining last week. They tented in their outdoor dining area and opened the firehouse garage doors. I prefer the sausage but got 1/2 sausage and 1/2 pepperoni. Ate 2 slices of sausage and 1 pepperoni. Wanted one more slice but my brain overruled my stomach.
