Hey Dolls, so I do not know how many people in the Oklahoma City area have the same issue but it seams like all the food around here sucks! I mean coming from California I guess I can be snobbish when it comes to fast food. What ever you are craving and for whatever budget Southern California has something for everyone. I mean 9 times out of 10 you are full and satisfied even if you have a tight budget. Since moving to this area I am appalled by almost everywhere I have tried so I figured why not tell you when some where shines bright among the other broken dreams here. So yes random eateries and expeirences and if any of them help or you have suggestions... I am dying to know.

So B and I were sitting in bed watch food network as like most Sundays because it is my Saturday. It was getting late and we were getting really hungry. From google searches on Top 10 Oklahoma City Restaurants to the phone book... to saying screw it we are going to be disappointed by anything we get and we wont get out with out paying around $20 for the two of us - we decided - lets go to Buy 4 Less and grab some corn dogs because we will know what to expect and how to make them tastey. On our way B continues to rant about how horrid and dis-satisfying all food around us is, I mean McDonalds even sucks particularly bad 5 times out of 10, I didn't know that was possible. We see the sign for Woodbridge. It's small and looks like a mom-n-pop place with unassuming painted pictures of mediocre food on the windows, we decided what the hell lets check it out. We walk in and it is pretty empty but still the feeling of calm and friendly. We are greeted and led to where ever we want sit. Janice the night manager brings us tea and we ask for recommendations. She suggested the Catfish that day and said that Michael the cook is the best in Oklahoma City. We both go for it, very glad we did! The fish was flakey and wonderful. The okra was yummy and crunchy. The mash potatoes were okay (I can make better) the coleslaw yummy.. The dinner roles were awesome and the tartar sauce was really good and not as tart as most others I have tried. The people were great. The only flaws so far are cosmetic... When you order ask if Michael made it!?! We paid about $30 in all that is with a $10 tip - the catfish meals were $8.99 each but everything else is really reasonable. and we had a whole other meal for later :) *** Below are some pictures of the menu from Urbanspoon, really bad quality but hope they are helpful ***

So I thought I would add that we have been back twice since Sunday and it is Wednesday now LOL... The burgers are really good and big we split one with french fries and we were pretty much full all night. Last night B got a Bacon cheese burger which i have to say was larger than the previous and delicious his onion rings were great crunchy and flavorful especially for a "To-Go" order. I sinned and got their Chili cheese fries, way big portion split it into a splendid meal and snack later. The chili is like chunks of real meat, really nice flavor, and not to greasy.. the cheese was nice and gooey throughout... and the fries were not very soggy like i expected... I have to say been there 3 times and have not been disappointed yet. Price change the burger w/ onion rings and the chili cheese fries came out to about $13 w/ tip.
