Terminal D options: http://www.dfwairport.com/shops/finder.php?terminal=13&group=%25&type=restaurants
Honestly, the Blue Mesa tequila bar is the only serviceable place i've been, and it's not brilliant. There's a couple i haven't tried. BBQ places are garbage.

ORD Terminal 3:
Torta Frontera
Wolfgang Puck
Goose Island Brewery
Macaroni Grill is ok
La Tapenade

ORD: 5 star. DFW: 5  :flush:

 :lol: putting a macaroni grill in your top 5  :lol:

You could do much worse with airport food.

First thing you mentioned in your Europe trip report thread is McDonalds. Maybe that's more your speed?

I don't think you have a really strong grasp on what is going on when I post.

I have a question? Right now my fiesta trip is scheduled to leave wednesday morning and fly back friday morning. I want to stay till sunday with all my buds and I still have a stand by voucher I could use early Sunday. What do you think the chances are of a seat opening up that sunday back to kc? Probably not good, right? I could save my points and use the voucher though, and the voucher expires Jan. 13th. What would you do?

Did you like it or love it? I thought it was overrated, but still good.

no, I am at the airport hyatt and it sucks crap.  I assumed it would be rocking but apparently everyone with a good travel agent didn't get stuck here.  no hockey, just the bowl and a ton of hicks, at the Hyatt.  I will never come back to this dumbass town.

Flew to Philly today. Was supposed to depart KCI at 7:00am, we left at 3:00pm. USAir had 10 flights scheduled for today, we were the only one not cancelled. Everyone else trying to get somewhere said they weren't getting out until Sunday. I never thought I'd be thankful that my flight got delayed 8 hours.
I got a guy on the other line about some white walls

I flew a Dash400 once from Reno>Elk Horn Idaho>SLC.    We stopped to pick up 2 people in Elk Horn (like a rough ridin' taxi or soemthing) and they had to put their luggage in the aisle because the hold was full.

correction, it must have been a Dash 100, because it had a short fuselage
