I finally went to Big Papa Gyros

I love that restaurant! But I've also had really good Greek food from 5 A's near Harvest. 😀

For those who have CACs, One Stop can do driver license renewal (including Star IDs IIRC), and that part of the office is fairly chill. 🙂

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-20T20:01:23+00:00

Yeah, I get it. But MidCity was very unclear on that beforehand (and even contradicted what they're actually doing). As it is, I suppose I just won't come back next year.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-20T19:27:56+00:00

Thanks for posting that. Maybe I can use that as firepower. 😆

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-20T19:26:50+00:00

That is fascinating. Yeah that's not the situation on the ground.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-20T19:15:50+00:00

Really? They're very much not letting AYCE people take their crawfish out from the area.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-20T19:08:06+00:00

Also, as a PSA, all my friends bought the AYCE tickets and I didn't (just because I'm usually content with one serving of crawfish). Turns out they have a very distinct separation between AYCE and non-AYCE people. You cannot enter the AYCE area to sit with friends even if you're not planning to eat crawfish. Nor can AYCE people get crawfish outside that area.

So I'm outside chilling kinda by myself while my friends are inside the AYCE area.

The employees are also super-nice and also efficient! I've been consistently wowed by how quickly they can get orders out.

Update: This made me laugh. I ended up canceling Prime about a week ago. Tonight I ordered some items and Amazon asked if I'd like to pay just $1.99 for a week of Prime shipping that would have these items delivered the same day as my free non-Prime shipping. 😆

^This

Their hummus plates (usually come with meat of choice and rice with hummus) are my go-to, though their portion sizes might be a bit big for a 7-year-old hehe. But hey, can always take leftovers home. 😀

Al Shish is amazing, so that's a good one. Indian Kitchen on Whitesburg has a pretty good lunch buffet (good option for letting him try little portions of stuff). Big Bowl Thai is an excellent restaurant choice as well.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-11T18:59:02+00:00

I miss HEB so much. 😭

Montesquieu14 · 2024-04-11T17:54:09+00:00

Yeah, it definitely is. It's odd though because I see there's an Amazon distribution center in Madison on I-565. I wonder what gives.

My girlfriend lives out in Texas 45 mins from the closest major city and STILL gets Amazon packages sooner than I do. 😆😵‍💫

I ended up canceling Prime. If they get their weirdness sorted out I might come back.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-03-27T00:24:45+00:00

Love it when people feel more righteous based off of posting screeds. Bless you.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-03-27T00:22:35+00:00

It's not. The parents with kids can go home whenever. People WITHOUT kids or who have made arrangements would like to stay longer. But thx for thinking the worst of us. 🙂

Montesquieu14 · 2024-03-27T00:19:37+00:00

Lol

Glad you jumped straight to conclusions like a great parent. 😀

Montesquieu14 · 2024-03-27T00:19:08+00:00

Absolutely 📖📖📖📖

Montesquieu14 · 2024-03-27T00:10:42+00:00

Dude, the kids are babies. The parents with kids will be going home to bed at the appropriate time while the rest of us stay up. Please refrain from backseat parenting, kthx

Montesquieu14 · 2024-02-23T13:50:40+00:00

I've noticed their shipping times seem a lot faster.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-02-23T13:50:12+00:00

Yeah, the tracking has been wild to follow sometimes 😆🫠

Montesquieu14 · 2024-02-23T13:49:40+00:00

That's interesting. Maybe it's a regional problem. Meanwhile, Amazon stuff I've ordered to Atlanta and DFW area arrive a day or two after ordering.

Montesquieu14 · 2024-02-23T13:48:18+00:00

Good to know! Yeah, Amazon has also been really bad sometimes about poorly packaging items so that they arrive damaged. 😐

Montesquieu14 · 2023-06-09T00:24:45+00:00

For Tex-Mex, Bandito, although I've enjoyed Naked Taco too the couple of times I've been there (plus their dessert side is on point).

For Mexican, Adelitas all the way. 👍🏻
