  • Olive Garden: Duh!

    This should come as no surprise to anyone. The question I have is why doesn't OG really do the culinary school? It can't be any more expensive than what they're doing, it wouldn't be hard and it wouldn't be expensive to actually give them some lessons while they're there.

    Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

      Gordon Hayward is not going to take this news well.
      So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

        I've said it before, I'll say it again. I could eat Zuppa Toscana all day, every day. Of course I make it at home, but I don't mind getting it at the OG.

          Of course they don't own a cooking school in Tuscany. Honestly I can't understand why the OG at Fashion Place always had a one hour wait, while the Macaroni Grill across the street had a five minute wait. They have sold the world a bill of goods.

          Macaroni was 15% more expensive than OG, but was five times better food.

              I'm certainly surprised that Sysco food isn't authentic Italian food.
              Not that, sickos.

                Great article on the arrival of the OG to Sioux City.


                A martini is not a martini without an olive.

                That, at least, is the thinking of a true connoisseur.

                And to Siouxland residents, many of whom consider themselves connoisseurs of fine food, a city is not a city without an Olive Garden. So as of Monday, Sioux City becomes a real city.

                What for years has been a local obsession -- the OG's manicotti formaggio, chicken vino bianco and zuppa toscana driving Siouxlanders to Omaha and Sioux Falls -- has become a reality.

                        Yikes is correct.

                        My wife's sister and her husband gave my wife and I a gift certificate to Olive Garden and two movie passes for Christmas. We thanked them, despite it being very difficult for me to not tell them what I really think of the OG and Hollywood.

                        We'll regift the OG certificate and my wife will use the movie passes with her brother's wife, who is her movie-going buddy. I'll stay home that night and play Red Dead Redemption.

                          Don't let IlPad fool you guys. I'm willing to bet he's a closet OG lover. He does love all things Italian!

                            It's true; I love all things Italian. That's why I hate Olive Garden.
