re: The 10 best Carrollton restaurants?

Not a terrible list, but, as with all things subjective, it's definitely debatable. Some points more than others.

Le Madeline? That's a strange addition to the list, IMO. Perhaps the topic of "Best Restaurant" versus, "best breakfast restaurants", or "best bakeries" is just too broad, but Le Madeline doesn't make it on my top 10, or probably top 20.

Panchitas - There is probably no other style of "ethnic food" than Mexican that generates such divergent opinions. Panchitas is a prime example of this. I find their food practically indigestible, much less palatable. I don't give two shakes if it's more "authetic" Mexican than another restaurant. I know when something tastes bad, and Panchitas is bad food, IMO. Besides the fact that the location is unsuitable for that type of restaurant. The seating is limited, the kitchen heat and smells waft thru the tiny dining area, filled with immensely heavy log-roll chairs, and a sidewalk also too tiny for comfortable seating.

Cafe Nino is a hard one for me. I do like the food, and the pizzas are top notch (at their best, but every pizza joint serves duds now and then; crust is old, etc). However, Nino simply has to fix up that place before I would consider placing it in my top 10. How it passes inspection is a mystery. It's simply too nasty in there for me to consider bringing a guest or even my children to dine in. It's a "take-out only" place for me.

I've never been to Chill Out Cafe, but as a new place with "a spectacular coupling of American breakfast and Thai taste!", I'd have a hard time putting it on my top ten. I've been to Singha a block away, and thought the Thai food there was pretty damn strong. My preference is to keep my breakfast food and thai separate.

The other restaurant's you mentioned are all solid, and I'd probably include them.

My Top 10 for Carrollton would also include:
Cote Sud
Jacques-Imos (suck it, haters!)
Louisiana Pizza Kitchen
Matt and Naddies
Fat Hen and/or Squeal
