I definitely fall into the live to eat category. I have no willpower when it comes to food. Most of the time.
I love food. I heart it with a passion It will eventually be my undoing. I really need to stop eating for about six months or so. Or maybe check myself in to a food rehab clinic. Do they have those? If not, why not?
Where the hell IS this place?
But that’s not what the question was. How far would I travel for the best meal of my life? To the closest restaurant, of course.
The best meal of my life is always the next one. I’m not a very picky eater so I don’t need to travel far to find a restaurant I like. About the longest I’ve ever driven to get to a restaurant I really wanted to eat at is about 30 minutes, because that’s how close the nearest Joe’s Crab Shack is.
Ever tried their Great Balls of Fire? It’s fried balls of crab and jalapenos, for Christ’s sake. Get your mind out of the gutter. Pervs…
I heart crabs. Well, the kind you eat, anyway. Frankly, the area I live in is so saturated with restaurants I don’t have to travel far to find a restaurant I like. Were that not the case I probably still wouldn’t travel more than 30 minutes to get a good meal. I mean, honestly, is any type of food worth all of the gas money you’d be spending to get there? Not nowadays. Nowadays you must have stellar credit, take out a second mortgage, and donate one of your children’s kidneys just to be able to afford gas.
Anyone else feel like this when they get to the gas station?
What about you, dearest reader? What’s your favorite restaurant?
Check out these other great daily prompt posts:
My favorite restaurant is Chili’s.
Chili’s is good, too. They just built one near us about a year ago and I’ve been a handful of times. Good stuph.
Yes it is. I love the variety of the menu and the relaxing atmosphere.

Thank u for the ping back. I am like you. I wouldn’t spend the extra miles to get a meal unless I was all dressed up and have a major credit card and plan on paying it off in six months time. hehehe, not gonna happen in my neck of the woods!
Nope. Not a chance.
My favorite restaurant is my kitchen. My wife and I have put together some super fantastic meals in there over the years. The only problem is, because we don’t necessarily go off a recipe, sometimes our creations our impossible to duplicate.
Haha! That’s what’s happened to my chili recipe. I know the ingredients, but don’t necessarily put the some amount in every time.

Woohoo!!! I jokingly told Rarasaur I would win. Who knew!!
My favorite restaurant is within walking distance and it’s also a wine bar. Double win because I eat amazing food and can just drunk zig-zag home!
Nice! Drinking and walking is MUCH less dangerous.
The Italian Village in Chicago has food to die for. It is far for you to travel but worth it if you do.
Yeah, if I ever make it out that way I’ll keep that in mind, but I doubt I will.
My favorite place is in the mall of the town north of here – about twenty minutes – it’s Chinese and by far the best Chinese I can find around here without actually traveling to China.
Mmmmmmmm….I heart Chinese food, too. In fact, I had it for lunch today.
I’m the same way, live to eat. Otherwise I’d be Skinnybooyawn instead of Beefybooyawn lol. My favorite restaurant though would have to be… damn… not entirely sure lol. Lately I’ve been on a Skyline kick, but I’d have to say probably Kabuto’s. Japanese Steak Bar and Sushi. YUM.
