Pizza!!!....Now we’re Talking!!!
I worked for 10 years (and now own) a restaurant/bar/pub.
Once I learned to make my OWN dough, toss it(NOT ROLL IT- EVER) and apply my own toppings( personal favorite- virgin olive oil,provolone,garlic,basil) you would not catch me buying store bought, Pizza Hut or ANY take out pizza brand EVER!!!!
However, if I’m home in Syracuse, I will grab a slice from some of my favorite local joints.
White Castle—I would road trip up to 400 miles one way just for a sack!!!
And if I have read their web page correctly, one will soon open in Dallas about 190 miles from me.....I’m counting the days!!!

My fantasy job would be to own a restaurant. (I've owned retail "brick and mortar" stores, photo studios, and wholesale companies, but always wished I had a restaurant.)
Now I'm old, and in rotten health -- and surrounded by places that make me glad it's possible to eat at home. Between the lack of basic sanitation (the "dirty secret" of many places in this region), lousy food, and overly solicitous "service" ("Are you done with that, SIR?" "How is everything, SIR?" "Can I get you anything, SIR?" -- if I want to subject myself to a close order drill, I'll lie about my age :) and volunteer for the National Guard), it's just not worth the bother (not to mention the expense).
