Not just a goer, but an employee. Hi, everyone, I'm the kitchen
manager of an Italian restaurant here in Austin, 30 years old, and
married with two children. Hope to see others here soon,

You know, I don't know. But I can check. [pops open business pages]:

Basil's ---
Restaurant 900 W 10th St 78703 477-5576

Sure enough.

I remember it as being really good northern italian, great service, an "ambiance" kind of place...for a dress-up date. Nice wine, waiters in tux's, etc. They didn't take reservations however (the only bad point I could identify).

Gena, we're (uh) waiting on KitchenManagers listing of the top
ten Italian restaurants in Austin. He may be getting back to us on this
and I'm real interested in his rankings. We'll see if Basil's ranks up there
with the best. If you make it to Austin again, I'd love to take you out
to Basil's.

Me, again. Sorry I've been gone so long. Problems have ranged from
upgrading to Windows95 at work to three of the wife's friends dying to
not being able to log on to some sites. Oh, well.
Not quite ten, and each is on for different criteria. If you feel any
is in error or that I have left someone off, please respond here or e-
mail me and I will compile a new list.
In no particular order, the restaurants are:

Olive Garden
Mezzaluna
Maccaroni Grill
Mama Mia's
Little Italy
Carmelo's
Brick Oven
Sfuzzi
Spaghetti Warehouse
Hill Country Pasta House
Italian Garden

I'll be waiting for those responses.

What about ranking them. At first I thought you had Olive Garden at number one.
A couple to consider are L'Opera at Lakeline Mall and the Italian restaurant at
the corner of Mesa Drive and Spicewood Springs road (the name escapes me, it may
even already be on your list).

What do you think of the Olive Garden (I like them for their copious bread and
salads)?

 Response 11 of 133: KitchenManager  (KitchenManager) * Sat, Feb  8, 1997 (14:46) * 5 lines 
 
That unknown one at Mesa and Spicewood Springs is Little Italy.
As to ranking them, that would be difficult by myself as I work
at one of the one's on my list.
Be back soon, I gotta run.

Guess I've already covered my opinions on Austin restaurants in the Austin conference. Maybe I just had a bad experience, but I really hate Olive Garden--just smacks of chain restaurant to me (friends rave about the bread but I wasn't thrilled). On the other hand, I used to love Macaroni Grill.... So I'm a poor but snobbish gourmand, I guess. I used to eat out a lot more when I lived in Austin but I can't afford to now in Dallas. And you don't care about Dallas restaurants anyway!

I can handle the Olive Garden occasionally. But by the time I get done with their never ending
breadsticks and huge all you can eat salad, I'm ready to put the main course in a doggie bag.

Hi all! Yeah, me.
Have I told you my sex restaurant story yet? Feel free NOT to read it, but
it's true.

When I first came here five years ago now, a nineteen year-old straight from
the Namibian bush, I was walking through the streets of Zürich one day, and
felt in the mood for some ice cream. Not noticing that the colourful candles
in every second shop window was actually plastic neon lamps in the shape
of willies, or that I was in a redlight district, I popped into the nearest place that
looked like it might have some ice cream.
First thing I noticed as I was placing my order, was that there were only men
in the restaurant. Second thing was that they were staring at me. I thought, $hit, what?! Never had a whole room full of men stare at me all at once.
Then the banana split came . . . with an upright banana . . . and no spoon to
eat it with.
So I called the waiter. I got a little bit worried when he seated himself beside
me, explaining that these bananas don't get eaten with spoons, and that
telling me something about how 'good' I was. Didn't understand what he
meant, so I asked him to explain himself. And he said something about 'dusguishion' - disguise, it turned out to be. (I did not speak German back then.) So I asked him again
what the hell he was talking about. Then he grabbed my crotch! Turned
out to be a gay bar of course, and he thought I was a transvestite!!!!! Foul, hey?! But I guffawed when he told me!

One grandmother dued in 1981. The other one is recovering from a bout with cancer, and actually doing quite well. She is 97 and still out and about on her own. She has no problem dancing to rock music, and her eyesight and reflexes are still excellent.

No, mine's a real bitch. She gossips, lies, trashes people behind their backs, blackmails them, lives excessively in every respect - I find it very amusing! She has 'strictly confidentially' promised her fortune to my brother, my sister, and me, because 'the other two aren't worth it'!!

I had a grandmother like that. After she became an invalid, and was confined to a nursing home, I gave her a series of police whistles, to attract attention when she wanted help. The staff had no sense of humor. they kept taking the whistles away. So, I started bringing her three and four at a time. When she died, the staff had taken away over 200 of them, Some people never learn. Toward the end I was also supplying whistles to 3 other patients.

Have a sliver of lime to poke in there? Not necessary of course, but it does make the water taste wonderful - even if it is not straight-from-God Hawaiian water. Mahalo Mucho! This place deserves 5 stars for accomodating staff, for starters!
