Try getting northerners to drink sweet tea, eat grits, or anything with seasoning.

Try getting a New Yorker to eat Chicago style pizza or vice versa.

In actual fact, every person is close minded. But that is taking this a bit far.

try getting a person from south Jersey or the Philly area to try a philly cheese steak anywhere beside philly or south jersey

North-easterners are by far the worst.

Save New Yorkers and Bostonians you're probably not far off as well. I find a real easy way to tell what you can expect in an area is from the menu wording. If the menu item seems really dumbed down rather than calling it what its traditionally referred to as, then there's usually a really good reason for that with the customers who make funny faces and look real confused when they look at it or ask about it, or worse yet, don't ask and just remain comfortably confused.

Sometimes its just easier to say red sauce with meat in it than bolognese, or Rustic Italian bread than ciabatta.

Gotta love that lesbian food

Didn't realize it was open until I saw this thread. Went after work and picked up chicken shawarma dinner. Chicken was moist, large portion, could have had a bit more flavor. Came with feta salad, humus, rice pilaf. Humus and rice pilaf very good. Salad a tiny bit watery. Around $12 before tax. Ordered at welcome station and came out in less than 5 minutes. Will go back for dine in one day.
