I tried some the other day.. YUMMY!!! There is only one in LA, in Hollywood. Its in limited places. If you got one in your area, you must check it out.

Seems like they opened one in Santa Monica 3rd street Promenade area.. worth checking out again...

None near me, and I'd rather eat my own fingers than go to the one opening in Bethesda. Interesting idea, and I'll try it if I see one, but I'd rather have an Indian fast food joint.

Nothing will beat the high quality/value of PF Changs

Looks pretty good. I'd grab some for lunch if one existed here.

Looks good to me. I've always wanted another chain stir fry restaurant besides Noodles & Co.

Which meat did you have OP?

KT

Had the chicken satay with rice noodles, the eggplant and the papaya slaw and red sauce and nuts on top, it was SO good. My friend had the meatball with the brocolli, with green sauce and slaw. it was SO not like any meatball you've had in a Italian restaurant, it was nice and spicy... I might go there tonight for dinner. I wonder if FenixGoon would join me.

From the creators of Chipotle and not in Colorado :|

We have Tokyo Joe's here though, which seems like a similar thing and is really good.

I have been seeing several of these types of restaurants popping up in Southern California. I think it will be one of those fads that will eventually die out.

Here are a couple I have seen

Pick a meat, pick rice or salad, pick toppings, and pick a sauce.....

The issue I have is that it usually takes a long time for people to make their choices. I hate getting behind people who are there for the first time. Then the first timers are offered samples and then they want to sample everything. Just frustrating.

You get that in McDonalds. People who've lived in this country their whole lives get confused by the McDonalds menu. They're either functioning with the brain power of a virus, or they purposely do it to inflict control on other people, because they're wastes of skin in rest of their lives.

Nice, sounds great. I like the idea of the broccoli and green beans, plus the crispy garlic on top. Yum!

Would like to try. Hopefully they do a good job keeping those peanuts away from other things. Allergic to them. :(

Not to be rude, but kindly isolate yourself from society. kthxbye.




Not be to rude, but you're going to be rude anyways :confused:

Why would you say that to someone who may have a life-threatening condition?

If that's the best you can post, then stop.
