[speaker001:] uh Kate what kind of uh where do you like to eat out
[speaker002:] well we uh we really like the Mexican food you know here in Texas and uh so we try and go around to different Mexican restaurants trying them out
[speaker001:] yes
[speaker002:] and so uh Tia's is probably our favorite uh restaurant there and I think they have the one of the best services that uh that we really like it
[speaker001:] do you have you tried Mother Mesquite's
[speaker002:] no where's that at
[speaker001:] that's at Skillman and LBJ there is uh it's where Skillman uh curves into Forest Lane and it's real good Mexican food a another real good one is uh
[speaker002:] uh-huh um-hum
[speaker001:] Raphael's down on McKinney Avenue
[speaker002:] oh
[speaker001:] they're both very good um-hum
[speaker002:] really oh that uh no we haven't explored uh you know too many places um you know a lot of the big name brand I guess uh chains uh yeah but um oh we've tried places you know down uh by the Collin Creek Mall the uh you know Alvarez and um gosh we tried what was across the street
[speaker001:] chains uh-huh
[speaker002:] El Paso's El Chico's or something yeah something something like that uh-huh uh-huh yeah
[speaker001:] oh El Chico's or El Phoenix one um-hum um-hum um-hum well I like Tia's better than I do El Chico's or El Phoenix
[speaker002:] yeah yeah
[speaker001:] uh much better uh Mother Mesquite's is one of our favorites but then fajitas are one of my uh I like it better than just about anything and they make very good fajitas there in their own uh homemade flour tortillas that are just absolutely wonderful especially with butter and honey on them
[speaker002:] oh yes yes oh uh-huh uh-huh oh I know I tell I tell you what they they are they just um they're excellent uh excellent food I wish I could make them here at home
[speaker001:] yes yes so do I well what else do you like
[speaker002:] just can't make those flour tortillas but well I love uh I love seafood and I notice they have like the you know The Louisiana Purchase um Razzoo's has opened up down you know off of um um oh close to 635
[speaker001:] uh-huh yes now I haven't eaten there have you eaten there
[speaker002:] yes I have eaten there now the only problem I love the food it's a lot of cajun food and a good seafood but uh the service has always been so strange every time I've been in there mostly it's been at lunch time
[speaker001:] uh-huh uh-huh
[speaker002:] and uh but I hear at night though they have uh you know the outdoor um bar and um uh that's it's really uh you know kind of lively so it's it's really good all their blackened grilled stuff
[speaker001:] uh-huh oh I we like uh uh for the cajun the spicy we like Atchafalaya's out on Beltline in Addison and it's a good restaurant
[speaker002:] uh-huh oh well that sounds great
[speaker001:] and fish for one of the best fish restaurants in town is either Vincent's there in Plano or uh I believe it's a Rusty Scupper over on uh uh Dallas Parkway in Addison which is absolutely wonderful
[speaker002:] um-hum um-hum huh uh-huh
[speaker001:] the service is great they have every kind of fish that that you could imagine you'd want and the uh
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] the atmosphere is wonderful too if you want a really special night out and fish food that's a good place to go
[speaker002:] uh-huh oh well I uh I have children and and work and so we uh we tend to eat a lot of fast food stuff uh-huh
[speaker001:] fast food oh I can understand that I can remember when our children were small we lived in the Chicago area at the time and we had a lot of McDonald's when they were first coming out I can't look a McDonald in the face now
[speaker002:] yeah I know I I know I I'm so sick of McDonald's we we used to eat there we used to eat there all the time and so now we we we branch out at this Wendy's or some other fast food joint
[speaker001:] I know yeah yeah well Taco Bueno's good and cheap and cheap very cheap
[speaker002:] oh and and cheap too so yeah but but the kids you know they they've got those expensive tastes so uh they like Tia's so they can sit down and all that good kind of stuff
[speaker001:] yes yes yes sounds like my grandchildren
[speaker002:] yeah I know they they they're just spoiled rotten but uh but no I uh uh we love to eat out of course it's just so much easier and simpler yeah so we uh we usually eat out generally two or three times a week
[speaker001:] oh yes well it's just my husband and I and it's either TV dinners at home or we go out to eat and I would much rather go out to eat than TV dinners
[speaker002:] yeah yeah oh oh me too me too so I know uh I I know that I uh you know I just work and I'm just tired when I get home and I I just don't feel like cooking
[speaker001:] oh no no
[speaker002:] and uh you know on the weekends there's always things to do and uh so we like to go out to lunch on Saturdays especially
[speaker001:] I like breakfast out
[speaker002:] uh-huh uh-huh
[speaker001:] I like the IHOP there in Plano
[speaker002:] yeah now I we've been there twice and and both times I just oh the food just didn't quite settle with me and I don't know what it was
[speaker001:] oh really oh now that's surprising
[speaker002:] um-hum um-hum
[speaker001:] because normally they're just they're real good and I like because they they're even if they're crowded they're fast service you know I I don't have to wait forever for a table
[speaker002:] yes and I love um-hum um-hum yeah
[speaker001:] and we also like Owens uh
[speaker002:] oh family restaurant uh-huh
[speaker001:] country sausage yeah yeah we think it's good
[speaker002:] now I haven't been there before I went to one I think in Ohio or or or somewhere up there but I've never been to that one here I know it's just down the street so now have you been to Applebee's
[speaker001:] um-hum it's good yes yes and we like Applebee's
[speaker002:] yes yes I I really like that too so that was uh
[speaker001:] yeah it it's fun I like your up there in Plano that uh Country Steak House
[speaker002:] oh yeah I've been I've been there twice uh-huh yeah so
[speaker001:] have you tried it we like it because it's fairly reasonable and they have we go for the salad bar
[speaker002:] salad bar yeah
