We took a break at Amarillo on the way to Colorado Springs and had dinner at Country Barn Steakhouse. Nishanth loves steak and i thought it would be a shame to not try one of the steakhouses here. He had a Santa Fe steak and i had a Santa Fe Chicken and it was just out of this world. I loved everything the chicken with sauted onions, mushrooms and jalapenos. I had a side of rice pilaf and mashed potatoes and it was just too good. The salad had finely sliced nuts, raisins, strawberries, cherry tomatoes, onions and lettuce and the combination was just heavenly.
Nishanth also loved his steak!

Panda Express, Plano, TX
This is slowly becoming one of my favourite Chinese places. They have the option of building a meal and one gets to choose from several chicken and other meat dishes. Theres the option of fried rice or noodles. I absolutely love their spring rolls and the chicken dishes. I dont find their food too oily unlike other chinese restaurants i have been to.
We have been to this restaurant twice and both times the food has been good. They are located at:

I have also tried out the Panda Express counter at the Valley View mall and Stonebriar mall and the food was good there.

Genghis Grill, Galleria Mall
We happened to be driving by and had dinner at Genghis Grill in the Galleria Mall. It was pretty good standard food as it normally is at all the Genghis Grill restaurants.
You have the choice of selecting your meats and vegetables and starch and combine them anyway you want to with the spices and sauces of your choice. They grill the meat and vegetables for you and serve it with rice, noodles (whatever is your choice). To help the novices they have a few recipe cards that suggest what vegetables and meats to choose. The best part was it just cost us 8$ for 2 people.

FoodRuckers, Frisco, TX
This was a new place we tried out on Mothers day this year. It is located near AMC, StoneBriar Mall, Frisco. Since it was Mothers day it was very crowded.
They offer exotic meats too and Nishanth tried out Wild Boar if i am not wrong. He loved the food there. I had a grilled chicken sandwich and it was quite good. It was after quite some time that we went to a Foodruckers and i found the one in Frisco pretty good. Definitely worth a try.

Texas de Brazil, Addison, TX
My husband took me here for my graduation and he absolutely loved it. This is an all you can eat meat place and since he eats almost anything and loves beef, he certainly had a lot of options.
There are many options for salad and makes for a pretty decent vegeterian meal too. I just had two options for chicken but the chicken was made well. They serve mashed potatoes and fried bananas. Having a piece of the fried banana is supposed to clear the palate between meals.
The ambience is good and the price matches up also. I think it costs around 45$ per person. All in all an interesting experience although if you were a vegetarian you may not want to spend as much to just have salads and beans and rice.
