lol, I DO WHAT I WANT


but for the record, I'm in agreement with you- it boggles my mind how much NCSU folks looooove their bojangles...

9/26/2011 4:22:12 PM

these dudes like small tits and bojangles, i see a correlation

9/26/2011 4:23:20 PM

i haven't eaten at this place, but i do agree that bojangles' chicken is way way over-rated/hyped.

last time I went to Beasley's getting my chickin n waffles I was sitting beside the drummer for The Love Language

can't get that kind of scene at BOJOS

9/26/2011 4:25:32 PM

Popeyes > Beasley's Chicken and Honey

9/26/2011 4:49:34 PM

now that is the truth

9/26/2011 4:50:35 PM

y'all keep it up

I get paid by the page

9/26/2011 4:53:14 PM

expanded menu! new sides! chicken & waffles all the time! non fried chicken options! unlimited tea! sweet instagram pictures!

10/24/2011 3:32:03 PM

mmmmm Chicken Pot Pie.

I really must get down to this place to at least test it for myself

10/24/2011 3:35:25 PM

never liked pot pies but yay for expanding the menu

sides looks really tasty. cant wait to try the yams

10/24/2011 3:35:49 PM

^^ Well damn I might need to hit them up again. I looooooooooooooove a good chicken pot pie.

10/24/2011 3:36:15 PM

I can say for a fact that the apple pound cake is very dope.

10/24/2011 3:40:19 PM

the chicken pot pie is definitely big enough/filling enough for 2. I'd be impressed if someone took that down by themselves and wasn't stuffed.

10/24/2011 3:49:40 PM

That looks like a cream of chicken soup/stew with a huge piece of polenta on it.

and I LIKE it

10/24/2011 3:52:56 PM

Hmmm, I was about to ask if it was any bigger than Busy Bee's pot pie which wasn't enough food on a plate to feed a squirrel. Guess I'll be going back again.

10/24/2011 3:53:01 PM

Chuck's is now table service as well, they have a smaller burger option which is cheaper, and fries dropped down to $2.50 with a burger

10/24/2011 4:47:39 PM

Cheddar pimento cheese custard either sounds amazing or awful. Most likely amazing.

10/24/2011 4:51:03 PM

^ It's amazing.

^^ YES YES YES. Win times a million for all the Chuck's changes.

10/24/2011 7:02:33 PM

put it this way. i could go there and just eat 3 helpings of the mac/cheese and would be soooooo happy.

10/24/2011 7:25:15 PM

the mac & cheese was very good, and i don't even like pimento cheese. too bad i'm too poor to go out to eat maybe next month! is this new menu standard or a limited time only deal?

10/24/2011 7:56:03 PM

standard. the sides will probably change again in a few months.

10/24/2011 8:16:57 PM

when do you usually work? i'm going to be really obnoxious.

10/24/2011 9:09:24 PM

chicken pot pie was super dope

10/24/2011 10:01:07 PM

Holy shit.

These changes are awesome.

I don't need table service at Chuck's, but lowered fry price? That's awesome.

New options at Beasley's look awesome.

Damnit.

10/24/2011 10:23:42 PM

i need to stop calling things in this thread "dope"

10/24/2011 10:24:39 PM

dope post man

Good to know. Will probably go by for dinner Thursday.

10/25/2011 8:56:24 AM

I killed one by myself last night.

10/25/2011 9:19:57 AM

As a real man, a man of men, can you advocate it for one manly men man, man?

10/26/2011 11:44:50 AM

The gf barely finished half of hers.

Naturally I slammed her face into it and yelled WE FINISH WHAT WE START!

10/30/2011 7:42:57 PM

That pot pie looks delicious. Gonna go turn some tricks and save my dollars.

10/30/2011 7:54:21 PM

Going on Friday to spend some of my paycheck. We we so excited.

10/31/2011 2:35:59 PM

A word of warning: the broccoli in the chicken pot pie retains heat better than the rest of the pie.

11/4/2011 5:16:45 PM

If you're gonna instagram about it, at least take off the borders...

11/4/2011 5:18:39 PM

Still haven't made it to beasleys but I was underwhelmed by chucks.

11/4/2011 5:21:18 PM

I was sufficiently whelmed.

11/4/2011 5:21:55 PM

I've enjoyed all the changes. I stopped by for the smaller burger for lunch this week and that's the perfect size.

I haven't tried to get anything from Beasley's to go, but I heard that you could not get the Chicken and Waffles to go.

Anyone know if this is true, and if so, why?

11/4/2011 5:21:59 PM

Going there tonight for dinner

11/4/2011 5:32:30 PM

^I'm going tonight with my girlfriend's family.

Ah snap.

(I'll be the only fat guy in the restaurant).
((For a fried chicken place it's still mostly skinny hip people.))

11/4/2011 5:37:57 PM

haha naw I'm going with my fatty friends. It'll be a fatty takeover

11/4/2011 5:38:46 PM

Damn fat people making us slender healthy people get mistaken for gays.

11/4/2011 5:42:14 PM

Most of my gay friends are fat lol. It's the tight jeans and gel hair that makes you look gay.

11/4/2011 5:47:10 PM

No you just didn't, girlfriend.

11/4/2011 5:48:00 PM

guuuuuuuuuuuurl, I ain't gay, I just like the Gap.

11/4/2011 5:51:10 PM

I will motion to your herd ever so subtly.

It may look like I'm flirting with your large gay friends.

But I am not.

11/4/2011 5:54:21 PM

Sorry can we get some more discussion about the pricepoint on this chicken?

My god you are some weird ass fucking people. The places I've eaten at my last couple of jobs have been REALLY pretentious places like Neo China, mellow mushroom, carolina ale house, carolina cafe, tobacco road, some southern place, some thai place, some greek buffet, etc... With the occasional fast food or sandwich place as well..

All of these places run about $10 for lunch. $15 for larger portions or high end things on their menu.

Are we really talking about $7.50 being out of this world? In downtown??? My god.


On the other hand I have to say the restaurants that have sprung up in downtown Raleigh over the last few years have been thoroughly unimpressive to me. I feel like they are all just charging more than I'm willing pay for the "atmosphere" in Raleigh. But a meal for two there with drinks usually runs $100-$200 which is relatively expensive particularly since a few of the meals I've had weren't all that good. Personally, I like to eat food at home that I cook, have a few beers then go out drinking. Late night food is more of a concern. Now $10 for chicken and waffles while hammered sounds awesome.

11/4/2011 7:23:57 PM

^It is awesome, and delicious and filling.

I went way overboard tonight. Chicken & Waffles, mac'n'cheese (I shared some, but still, stuff is dense), and chess pie. I miiiiight die. Tried the baked beans from my girlfriend's plate, they were great, especially considering I don't really like baked beans at all. I forked up some of my pie for some banana pudding--man that stuff is the bomb, even though it's not quite pudding... it's more like banana pudding cake (it's baked in a little glass with homemade marshmellow on top), not that I had a problem with that.

I liked that they changed the black tea to just one size with refills, but I guess you have to specifically ask for a refill because it seems like they won't otherwise (or that was the case with me).

I was definitely happy, though the girlfriend's mother thought the cornmeal pastry on-top of the potpie was a "little gritty".



tommy wiseau are you going to the industry potluck at Poole's on the 15th?

[Edited on November 4, 2011 at 7:59 PM. Reason : f]

11/4/2011 7:59:08 PM

Since when is Neo China pretentious and $10 at lunch

We decide to split everything up. Got chicken and waffles, chicken pot pie, mac and cheese, green beans, baked beans, and banana pudding. I was very appreciative that the green beans weren't cooked to hell and back. The banana pudding was the best thing ever I didn't think banana pudding could be that good. Just wish it had been warm and then it would have been pure awesome. I wish the chicken and waffles had come with syrup

11/4/2011 10:14:09 PM

set em up
