Not Dempsey's. That place is way overrated. Very meh.

I concur.  I popped in there a while back for lunch and was very disappointed with the Kobe burger.

The burger I had there was pretty good. I don't know what you guys are talking about.

i got the smokestack and it's the first time ever that i didn't have to tell them to leave something off of it.  i was pretty  :surprised:

You should trust the people who designed the menu man.   More than once, Ive been surprised by the flavor created by items I wouldn't normally ask for.

just for future reference, if I have something to post about Eastborough, should I post it here or start a separate "things about Eastborough" thread
I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps, etc.

I think it should be its own thread, but somehow located in this thread.   Also, it has its own mods.

Don't let Eastborough fool you. Its nothing but a buncha snobs who think they're their own city.

Sure they have a cop in an over-priced vehicle, but they rely on the city of Wichita for all other emergency services, water, sewer, schools etc.

It's just a pretentious sub-division with finer homes.

I recall an incident in the late 80s where they tried to block Douglas through their little snob town, and Wichita like a boss said unt-uh if  you want emergency services. They complied quickly.

why the eff would you ever order a kobe beer burger?

I guess it was the novelty of it.  I tasted the same as every other burger I've ever eaten.  :dunno:

kobe beef is sought-after because of the marbling. it's no different than any other beef if you grind it up.

What, are you too good to drive 60 on an ice bridge in blinding wind and snow 50 feet above solid ground?

I avoid Kellogg and the flyover at all costs.  It's not so much the roads, but the idiots who are driving on them.  Driving a semi through town is a real treat too.  My favorite is crotch rocket guy who likes to split lanes of traffic at 80 MPH.....

Brings up a positive of the city. Very easy to get from one place to another quickly. That said, I rarely venture much farther west than downtown or farther south than kellogg. The IMAX and the zoo will pull me that direction every once in awhile.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Was in town looking for apartments the past 3 days. Ate at Heroes in Old Town and had a really good burger. That was the only non-chain I ate at while there and it was great. I think I had the sweet pepper bacon burger. I would definitely recommend.
