Nice. Glad the categories are coming along. This pretty much covers everything, if I think of anything else I'll add.

would Best Lunch Specials or something of the sort be too vague as well? Looks like plenty of good categories to me, though

Best Ice Cream(shakes)? Or maybe dessert? Maybe that's too vague though. I don't want to start fragmenting the categories too much.


Best red sauce/gravy

Nicely done. The original list of restaurants didn't bother me as much as the types / lack of categories. Many things were left out.

I don't mean to be picky but I need some clarification on sandwich/poboy category. I know the difference, but I really want to nominate Faye's for their grilled chicken sub sandwich. Truly a masterpiece. So I don't know if that is considered a sandwich in the traditional sense. There are plenty of great club sandwich places and I don't want to take away from them. A sub category would be great so long as some retards don't nominate subway or blimpie or shite like that.
