    wow. you are actually spot on with this! :mrgreen:

    i thought outback was a much better establishment, as a low end steak house, about 10 years ago. now its rubbish other than the ribs and a few other choices. i agree.

    the pumpernickel bread is still spot on though.

    my family from australia was underwhelmed when i took them there

    i had an australian professor in college too that HATED outback... went on a whole tirade about their "wombat wings"... "WOMBATS DON'T HAVE WINGS!"

    I thought you were gonna say "cause nothing about it is from the outback it should be called "what Americans think the outback is steakhouse"".

    Nothing on the menu is remotely Australian. Can you even get kangaroo steaks or croc meat or anything like that?? That would make it slightly more Australian. As for blooming onions, quesidillas or pumpernickel bread, we don't eat none of that shit here. We don't even drink fosters here either, we send it all overseas cause it's shit. You can barely buy the stuff in shops here. It's funny, it's probably our highest selling exported beer and lowest selling local beer at the same time.

    Outback Steakhouse started in Tampa, Florida in the 80s. That should tell you how Australian it is. I agree, the bread tastes really good.

    They just call it by another name when they sell it here, really. Carlton Draught. VB. Cascade. Shit all tastes the same- bland, flavourless piss water. But it's warm here so people just want a coldie so no one really minds.

    The bread is great.

    So are the aussie cheese fries even though it's pretty much a heart attack on a plate.

    There's plenty of bacon + cheese topped potato wedges in Oz, but fries? Never. Besides, we call 'em chips.
