George's > Sammy's
frick George's and Smokey Bourgoise. That a-hole is the reason chelsea's shutdown for awhile, and he is now trying to regulate the food trucks. If this "law" passes about the food trucks, it will open the door for more regulations on them, and virtually shut them down. Every thing he tries to pass directly correlates with eliminating his competition. He is an unethical crook, plain and simple.

I think Sammy's consistently has some of the coldest beer in town, and Chimes has a great selection.
Cold beer does not equal better beer. The colder the beer, the less taste it imparts. Just a fact from a beer snob.

I absolutely agree with this; however, George's has some pretty damn good food and I hit it up often. But it kills me having to support that fricking piece of shite.

I guess I missed all of those threads. I always thought that it was pretty well established that you go to Sammy's for boiled seafood, which they do very well IMO.

I mean the law that is already in place, that they already follow. My question, is why try to implement a new law, that mirrors the current law, and apply it to the food trucks, who just so happen to compete with George's? Conflict of interest much?

Yeah the metro council is a joke. I've had the misfortune of dealing with this group before and almost across the board, I can say, these folks are not smart.

I think the remnants of the old southern democrat remain in the metro council. No longer tolerated on a national or state level, the southern democrat holds on to its last bastion of unknowing voters at the city level.

And unfortunately one of the bigger hacks in Mike Walker may be the next mayor.

I get this almost every time I go unless I am eating crawfish. I have never been disappointed. I am easier to please than a lot of the refined palates on here though.

Never said they "exclusively" involved Sammys. Just said that I had seen many positive reviews for it in the past. All 4 of those threads featured positive feedback regarding that poboy. Not sure what more you want.

George's sucks nuts, and their douchebag owner is trying to put the kibosh on the food trucks. frick that guy
well that has nothing to do with the quality of their food, which, IMO, is better than Sammy's.
Sammy's is just meh to me. It's good enough for the price, but it's nothing overwhelming.

The answer is Chelsea's (don't get the gumbo). If you don't enjoy Chelsea's steak or crab cakes, then you need to go DIAF.

Sammy's is a great place to eat lunch, but I wouldn't wait in line to eat there for dinner.
I don't wait to eat dinner anywhere. I don't understand it. The other night, Sammy's was on a 2 hour wait. Who the frick is told "two hours" and says "okie dokie"??
WHO!?!??!!?!
