cpayne5 11-12-2008, 10:14 PM Yeah Jalisco's is around that curve... I like their food. The atmosphere is a little old, but the food is definitely good. They have a chicken breast smothered in cheese and chorizo that is awesome, and they have this quesedilla that has chicken strips, shrimp, bacon, cheese, guacamole, brocoli, tomato, onions, and a few other things in it that one person cant finish that is freaking amazing.
What mexican joint in what lowe's shopping center? The new stuff accross 66?
Yeah, right after 66/ right before you get to the big Quarles gas station, on the right hand side. There is a big shopping center there now. Lowe's, Super Walmart, Cracker Barrel, etc. There is a little strip of shops in front of the Lowe's. The Mexican place is in there. I can't remember the name off hand.
DynamiteRave 11-13-2008, 01:32 AM BD I agree Chipoltes sucks! IT is just a big burriott of rice! Gross!
Chipotle is owned by the McDonalds corp. Maybe that can help explain why they're so bad? I like their quesadillas though.
Little trivia for ya: Chiptole's refried beans are refried in bacon drippings. Eat up!

Ill have to check it out. I went to the Ledo pizza accross the street next to the target on sunday for lunch. They only had 1 server. We waited over an hour for food and were lucky the counter girl brought us some drinks. We had our pizzas before other people in our party got their appetizers. 2 sandwiches never came and our waitress totally disappeared for an hour. When we went to leave I noticed her in the back talking on her cell phone laughing. All I could do not to go off.
BDBohnzie 11-13-2008, 10:38 AM so ive been through frederick MD a few times and the wife and I have decide we want to come out there on an early fall/spring weekend evening when the weather is warm and sit outside in old town and have some drinks... it seems like a nice place to get hammered... what do you recommend?
Downtown Frederick is a great place to swing through on a nice weekend and get hammered drunk.
Before you head downtown, I highly recommend taking the Saturday Brewery Tour at Flying Dog Brewery (http://www.flyingdogales.com/). Doors open at 1:30, with tours at 2 and 3pm. A $5 pint glass gets you all you can drink while you're there. When I went, there were several groups that didn't take the tour, just drank the beer.
Best places to sit outside would be Brewer's Alley (http://www.brewers-alley.com/), La Paz Mexican Restaurant (http://www.lapazmex.com/), and The Greene Turtle (http://www.greeneturtle.com/). La Paz and Greene Turtle are next door to each other, and Brewer's Alley is a few blocks up. Across the alley is Griff's Landing (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=165975756), while they do have outdoor seating, it's smaller than the other places, but just as quaint. Don't eat at La Paz...food's awful, but they have the best outdoor patio in downtown.
Best places to get hammered include those 4 outdoor places plus Canal Bar and Grill (http://www.frederick.com/index.php?action=sponsor&id=3145) (also near La Paz and Greene Turtle) and Olde Town Tavern (http://www.ottfrederick.com/) (3 blocks north of Brewer's, usually have good bands playing Friday and Saturday night). If you are into hookah, Mirage Cafe & Grill (http://profile.myspace.com/215848765) is a block south of Olde Town...
If you are into Italian, go see my buddy Cooper at Il Porto (http://www.ilportogaithersburg.com/) at the corner of Market and South, on the south end of downtown. Great food at good prices. I recommend the white pizza, fried zucchini and anything off their entree menu.

Let me ask the people at school and I'll get back to you.
I know there's a hookah bar in Hagerstown (bout 20 minutes from Frederick) that the college kids rave about... Dunno if you're into that sort of thing. Hookah and drinking.
Apparently it's what all the cool kids do.
EternalEnigma21 11-13-2008, 11:04 AM Thanks BD. Ill actually hit u up when I get that way. Judging by your profile pic in that kilt we'd probly get along pretty well.
I don't know about a hookah. I'm a cigar guy. I've done a hookah, but with pot, not tobacco.
BDBohnzie 11-13-2008, 11:45 AM That picture is about 4 years old...I'm married with a kid and another on the way. I don't get that "wild" anymore. But yeah, let me know when you come to town...
