What’s for Dinner Tonight?

[Giraffe_Zen]

I've been nauseated and having GI issues the last few days. We made it simple tonight b/c I'm too sick to eat the steak dinner we were supposed to have. I had chicken soup, DH had chicken sandwich and chips.

Fried chicken from both Jollibee AND Royal Farms. The latter is better.

DH says you've convinced him to try the fried chicken for lunch the next time we're up North.

On another note, I mentioned to him that you said Bojangles is different in the North, than they are in the South. What's different about them?

That sounds really good!

I agree. Everything she cooks sounds delicious.

Today is shack day! Trying another new to us location. I am so sad next weekend is Labor Day. They will all shut down between next weekend and Columbus Day. Our shack days are numbered!

I hope you are all squeezing in every minute of summer!

I'm curious. Why do they close, after Labor Day, then reopen for Columbus Day? Also, when do they close down completely for the winter & when do they reopen? It seems we're never up there the right time of year.

Sorry I wasn’t clear. Most of them are seasonal. Some close as early as Labor Day and some stay open through early October. Some reopen in April and some in May.

The ones that stay open after Labor Day usually are only open on weekends, most of their staff are college kids who return to school.

They are season because most have outdoor seating only. You walk up to a counter and order, then take your food to what is usually a picnic table, sometimes outdoor table and chairs. It would be to cold on the water to keep them open through the winter.

If you are in the area I can make recommendations depending on what you would like.

No worries. I'm sure it was just the way I read it.

I'll be sure to ask for suggestions, if we make it up there in season. Actually, now that I know so many of you live on the New England coast, I'll probably be asking for travel advice too. It seems I'm constantly choosing the wrong town/city to stay in. We usually discover a better location, after we arrive & check into the hotel.
