Loosely based on “Intergalatic” by The Beastie Boys

Well Now I’ll tell you why I smile
You stick around for cocktails worth your while
They’ve got wait staff that goes the extra mile
Serving from a menu that’s versatile
Style family I said
I’ve always come back since I was a child
Got the number for the hostess on speed dial
Decorated richly with carpet and tile
Foods stacked neatly in a pile
Leaving here hungry is criminal
They’ve got class they’ve got wyle
To ignore dessert is to act plain vile
If you don’t ask for more you’re in denial
Coming from Italy nothing too wild
Go ahead put my reservation on file
Maggiano’s, food old style

Some places are stuffy and make you wary
Or require large gifts from the payroll fairy
No, Yo, gotta go — those places I bury
Need a place, face to face, with a loved one to tarry?
For respite from stress and the loads we carry
There’s nothing like the haven of Sanctuary

For food that inspires a poem
Your family and friends, yes we know’em
The wines will delight
The service is tight

If you’re looking to chill
At an oyster bar filled,
With senators gladhanding
And knocking back swill
Venture no farther
Than the Old Ebbitt Grill.

The seafood divine,
Setting refined,
This is the place
Those in the know
of DC go to dine.

Start me off with Monterey Bay sardines
Or how about some Salinas field greens?
Cannery Row feed me I’m tired of being so lean

Now give me my Prime Rib
Eating is such a sublime gig

When I grub at the Whaling Station
I’m simply trying to quench my steak fixation
Don’t get it twisted I also enjoy their crustaceans

Don’t be deceived I’m not a mobster
We can make it simple just give me my Lobster

When it comes to meat its all Prime Grade
This station is the jack of their trade
Rare, medium, or well theyll get it made

Cheesecake,Creme Brulee,and even Tiramisu
Whaling station you’ve filled me up, now its time to bid adieu

Whatya gonna do when u arrive in Phoenix?
ask me & I’ll recommend food so good you won’t spit it your kleenex.
right across the street we have ocean prime,
delicious truffled macaroni at dinner time.
Get your Robat grill on at the one & only Roka Akor,
sushi & butterfish will leave you asking for more.
El Chorro has history and camelback mountain,
yummy sticky rolls and a big white fountain.
you said you wanted something local with a fun twist,
let me call Binkley’s and put you on the list.
BLT steak has the freshest popovers,
they will make you smile on your stopover.
Don & Charlies American rib,
see some baseball items & wear a bib.
One last stop to our friends at Noca,
Eat some foodie food while doing the polka.

You better lose yourself in the menu
this moment, you live for it, you better choose it
You want the best dish, don’t matter which {Barbara Lynch’s} house you go
This opportunity for the best in Boston, yo’!

So you better lose yourself in the food
that moment, the first bite, savor it
You want Menton, No. 9, Drink & Sportello
A chef this good comes once in a lifetime, yo’!
