Stir Fresh - Mongolian-style stir fry. Very good (if you like this sort of thing)\
Chin's - Very popular, but I think over-priced and under-tasty Chinese
Right-oh! I'll have to check out Da Kine and see what kine it is - da chickenskin, da bettah, or what .
Meantime, folks - don't forget you can now register your Diners card, since it is really now a branded MasterCard, and have a double dip... My primary card is my HHonors AMEX, so I get 5 + 5 miles, and 5 HHonors points per dollar, a very nice double dip.

A few gay iDine locations I recommend in LAX - West Hollywood, Sunset Plaza, N of Beverly:
iCandy--new trendy bar/restaurant with a great happy hour! Fiesta Cantina--so-so food and margaritas, but a great, young crowd...though they may be leaving at the end of August. Hugo's--Good spot for Sunday Brunch, if you can find a place to sit!

Ord
ORD - MAZA on LIncoln Avenue in Chicago - bonus miles, 40% off with Diner's Club. Lebanese, excellent food and nice atmosphere.
ORD - Westmont - Emmy's - great breakfasts
May I suggest that posters put the city in the title.
East Side Steak and Ale is quite good. Fantastic onion rings and sweet potato fries, and their steaks and chops are good value under $20. Highly recommended. Also has a pool table, many TV's and over 20 beers on tap. You can head upstairs and there's a quieter dining room with the same menu and prices. On 1st Ave between 62/63
Becky's: Loud bar with OK food and 20+ beers on tap. Idine not good on weekends (I think). 1st Ave between 63/64
RDU - North Carolina - Triangle - Q-Shack - BBQ/Ribs The Q Shack
Yummy, yummy barbecue. Try the Texas style beef brisket. Don't bother with the burgers - they're not their forte.
Only the Raleigh locations participate in Idine. The original location in Durham has a different owner. Gift certificates purchased at the Raleigh locations aren't good at the Durham one. You can also order a smoked turkey ($30) for Thanksgiving.

Gotcha covered paradocs. I did another major update. Folks, please remember to use the proper format if you want your reccomendations put in the header post. I can only copy and paste, I can't take the time to edit.
Format is:
Format is Airport Code - Region of city as defined by iDine - Restaurant Name - Cuisine - (Zagat food score) (optional). Please use this format as I don't have time to edit for everyone.
