What did you eat that was so average?

That fried oyster BLT is pretty good, ettouffee and red beans but the rest is just ok.

Skillet, where Do you enjoy the food?

I've had several of their menu items during my visits. Crawfish Etouffee, Shrimp n Grits, Boudin Omelet, Red beans & rice, Duck Gumbo & a few of their different sandwiches.
The omelet was ok, shrimp n grits weren't very good, etouffee wasn't very good. Sandwiches were just meh, duck gumbo has a bit of a sweetness to it that I don't like, and the red beans are inconsistent. The red beans went from being pretty good on one visit, to way too spicy on the next. I guess I just need to stick with the cheese fries, those are good.

I've never been to the East.
Campus and Covington are both solid.

I have posted positive things, which only goes to show how much of an idiot you are.

When the OP threatened posters to down vote, I figured silliness deserved more silliness.
More praise for Chimes East.
My top picks for char-grilled oysters that I've tried lately.
#1 Chimes--very good
#2 City Cafe---a little too pungent, but still very good
#3 Acme---pretty tasty
Shucks---meh
Jones Creek Cafe---not good at all
On an aside, there's a phone app called Nextdoor that seems to be pretty popular. And for the White Oak, Tiger Bend, Hickory Ridge, Shenandoah area, etc. locations, there's a person blasting City Cafe for an experience they had there. It's a good read for those of you that have the app and are in that area of town.

I always get the wings or grilled chicken salad on romaine w/blue cheese and Italian dressings on the side. Mix the Blue cheese and Italian dressings.. It's awesome.
