P.S. I am a person who loves to cook, so I can pretty much have what I want to eat at any time but rarely do I run into food that is terribly disappointing here in TV. You don't have to be from New York to have fine dining experiences. But every meal doesn't have to be a home run to be enjoyable.

Toojays chicken livers and onions are the best I have ever had. The lighthouse has wonderful butterfish and catfish and their slaw with pineapple is always fresh and yummy. It is hard to beat Oakwood's barbecue, even if it is slightly off campus. ADD fun folks around the table and it is FINE dining.
You're right Gracie, I've rarely had bad food in or around TV. Not especially fancy or exotic but I'm not a fancy person anyway. I've mostly been pleased with food around here. My wife will tell you I'm the easiest person in the world to cook for. I like everything. Give me my wife's meatloaf and mashed potatoes and I'm a happy man. As a kid and an adult there was nothing as good as my mother's fried chicken.
