Speaking of onion strings, I just discovered fried shallot rings. In a word, awesome. Just sliver them and throw them into a shallow puddle of oil/butter. Be forewarned the high sugar content turns them from golden to black in a second, and don’t worry if they’re limp coming out of the pan, blot them on a paper towel and they crisp up like you wouldn’t believe. Fabulous with a steak or burgers.

When life thrusts 5 lbs of shallots into your lap you make lemonade.

I agree with Wade and think restaurants know it as well but since you will only be saving about a dollar you might as well just order it without the code.

I always find it very awkward to mention a secret word to get a discount. Half the time, the server hasn’t heard of it and it establishes you as a cheapskate up front.

Hehe..yeah, when I first put one in my mouth, it tasted different, but still very very very good :-)

Imagine a frozen hash brown pulled apart, with the small pieces of string potato free in one big pile. Then imagine a small dollop of mashed potato rolled around in that about the size of a tator tot and then deep fried. That’s what it seemed to be :-)

Their menu says the tater tots are made with bacon and jalapeno jack. Tomorrow I’m on it.

From MidtownEater on the other HB post:
