good luck deluxe

I’ll bet you would have never guessed that I like Sizzler. I most certainly do.
Luxury, to me, has nothing to do with cost. Good is good. And the Colossal Shrimp at Sizzler is just that.

So is their Strawberry Lemonade, which is perfectly tart and topped with sugared FRESH strawberries. And you know how I feel about strawberries. Yep, this drink is right up my alley!

What can I say - I’m the type of chick who can unearth gems almost anywhere.

I had to be all incognito snapping pics of my food with my camera phone at the restaurant. That explains the picture quality. I was all hunched over trying to work fast and covertly.

Now, back to that fabulous shrimp… They’re huge! I’ll even venture to say they’re the poor man’s lobster. Sizzler’s Colossal Shrimp are plump, succulent, and satisfying. My kind of delicacy!

Keep in mind, though, that this is not health food. I’m not insinuating that Sizzler is the place to go for an organic, free-range meal.

Who knows if the “drawn butter” that is served on the side is even real butter, but I really don’t even care. It’s a pretty tasty meal regardless. And it’s not like I have any business eating butter anyway…let alone a heaping side of sour cream and chives for my baked potato!

I had no idea I was doing Sizzler that night…it was just kind of the convenient thing to do. See, I don’t think anyone actually gets cravings for Sizzler. It’s one of those places that you just kinda happen upon.

I mean, has anyone actually planned to go to Sizzler? No offense, but I’m sure you know what I mean.

I got into a debate with a friend the other night about Sizzler in general. I happen to like it in spite of the fact that it is an inexpensive chain restaurant. He loathes it.

OK, time out…

We’ve got to compare apples to apples here! Sizzler is NOT Morton’s of Chicago,
Ruth’s Chris, or an even more elite establishment. When you compare Sizzler to a restaurant that is infinitely more upscale, you’re not being fair.

But if you were to compare Sizzler to Red Lobster, Sizzler is going home with the Oscar! They get bonus points for their nice salad bar. The veggies are always fresh and crisp at my local Sizzler, and they have a pretty decent selection of salad fixin’s.

So if you’re famished and in the mood for ginormous, behemoth shrimp, I say give Sizzler’s Colossal Shrimp a go. I give it the green light!

If you’re in L.A., maybe I’ll join you!
