Down in Outback

"Do you guys mind if I sit down with you?"
um, yes, but you're going to anyways I suppose... we thought that it was a little weird that our waiter sat down next to Ben to tell us about Happy Hour specials, but it is a "casual" restaurant.

We go here a fair amount, mostly for the cheese fries, chopped blue cheese salad with sweet pecans and their desserts. Since most of you probably know this restaurant, we'll just hit on the high adn low points of our particular outing.

They served the cheese fries, great as usual, and the saldas and the meals almost all at once. How much can we eat at once guys? We also got a new appetizer "Bushman 'shrooms". hmm, can't say that the name is great. Ben really liked them, Beth was equivalent. Good mushroom flavor, but not much added in the batter. It was a heartier batter than you usually get, crunchy really, and was tight around the mushroom rather than puffy.


For the main course, Beth had the outback special. Wouldn't recommend- the steak was a bit stringy and not too well cooked. Ben went with the pork chops. The flavor was really good but the chops were tough.

And can anyone explain why they can have ice cream, milk, chocolate syrup and blenders and not do milkshakes?


Outback is known for their steaks and big meaty protions, but we like them best for their cheese fries and their sundaes! It is a good time, but be prepared for a check larger than expected.
