Sorry, I don't like brown carbs between brown carbs with a side of brown carbs Archived Message Posted by longsnapper on May 16, 2025, 15:53:14, in reply to "It's so perfectly cooked, and I love its simplicity" And a large brown liquid carb Previous Message it's seasoned well, cooked well, and I love the steamed bun and pickles. Previous Message because I don't find their food particularly special.
