Dive and Dine on Feb 10th. Saturday.ABWA

[NorCalDawg]

Guys I think I'm gonna sit this one out. With the current weather forecast it doesn't look good, and it's not likely to warm up at all so I might get ONE dive in if I came at all. Probably not worth the drive out, considering the conditions.

So far:
Debi and James-Cole slaw.

Actually, ... (And actually, ....)...

You've got competition Mike.

I'm still in for the dive, but not the dine. I'm taking my wife out to dinner for her birthday. And no mike it's not McDonalds

I would suggest Chucke-Cheese. The ad in the paper just said they remodeled their game room.

(My preference would be Alphonso's though. They have the cool 1980's video games still.)

Nah...the pizza at Chucke-Cheese is no good (on par with Ci-Ci's), but old video games...hmmmmmm

Go for the gold then! Alphonso's.

They've got great pizza and in the back they have Galaga, Ms PacMan, Pole Position, etc.

You, sir, are gravely mistaken. While I have no recent experience with Chuck's Rodent Pizza, to call CiCi's Pizza "no good" is an affront to bad American buffet pizza.

Now, if you *really* want to see what "no good" *truly* means to American buffet pizza, take a trip to your nearest Mr. Gatti's Pizza location and experience how truly bad buffet pizza can get. From the bitter sauce that tastes closer to Taco Bell salsa than pizza sauce all the way to the crust which is actually quite capable of inflicting pain (or, with a simple hinge, of filling in for your dear departed tin soldier nutcracker), I have yet to find any pizza anywhere which stands as tall in the ranks of "no good". Oh, and to top it all off, their napkins say, "The best pizza in town... Honest!" (Who says irony is lost to the modern American entrepeneur?)

Too bad you guys don't have Stevi B's pizza.... now THAT is buffet pizza! You truly don't know what's up till you've had cheeseburger pizza.

Our CiCi's is pretty bad. They've been busted on several ocassions by the health department.

last time I was in there, which was years ago, I looked for their health rating which is on the wall at the payment counter. They had taken to-go pizza boxes and stacked them up blocking the score of 73. I pointed that out to the manager that failure to show their inspection was against state health laws, but he didnt' seem to care. Haven't been back.

Actually our Mr Gatti's closed. It was pretty good though.


The Alphonos' I refereed to above is the 'dry crust but home made tastin' pizza that you love. The toppings are all fresh and the pizza is great. Especially compared to the 'chain names' such as Dominos, etc.
