Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

^ Thanks Andy...it will be an interesting add if they do.

 

Wonder where they would put it? Maybe in the now empty restaurant at Sandcastle?

Love the Mac Daddy grilled cheese from The Melt

Interestingly, King's Island opened a Tom+Chee location late in the 2016 season, which is a sort-of competitor to Melt (though Melt is full-service and Tom+Chee is fast-casual). Melt is based in Cleveland and Tom+Chee is based in Cincinnati, so it makes some sense to let each one serve their nearest local park.

 

This is true and i have heard a rumor around closing time last year that Tom =Chee was coming to KI in 2017 and will be part of the meal plan, So i assume maybe Cedar Point would do the same thing with Melt

Also, I thought Melt was confirmed to be coming to CP in 2017 about 1,000 boat jokes and 1,000 stupid ride names for Mean Streak ago?

 

As bluestreak noted, it was never officially confirmed, though this tweet by Melt hints pretty strongly at it.

Cincinnati, interestingly enough, also has its own Melt, but it's completely unrelated to the Cleveland Melt, and there's only one of them, in Northside. I'm just happy Dayton's getting a Cleveland Melt in the very near future!

I just found Melt's website...

 

Yeah sure, I'll have the veggie instead.....phhhhht!

^ Bill - I actually DID try to get something "halfway healthy" the last time we went to Melt. I got the 1/2 Mushroom Melt with spinach, onions and provolone. Of course, then you throw in a pile of fries with all that bread and cheese...and it's not quite as healthy anymore!

I don't even know how I'd go about eating this.

Maalox would be a good start

I actually never had Panda Express before. Im guessing Panda Express is to Chinese as Taco Bell is to Mexican?

Exactly. People (as in people in general, not just TPR people) will says Panda Express isn't truly Chinese food because it's, and I quote from countless relatives, "it's cooked and served by Americans". Honestly, to me, good Chinese is good Chinese, no matter who cooks it. And if it's not good, hot sauce makes anything better.

Even most Chinese food in America cooked and served by Chinese isn't Chinese food. They sweeten everything to satisfy american wants. Our version of Chinese food is nothing like whats really in China

[coasterbill]

I appreciate the culture lessons but I think we all understand that a Chinese food chain that's popular in mid to low level American theme parks and shopping mall food courts isn't going to be confused with something you'd find at a high end restaurants in Beijing.

I've heard if a Chinese restaurant doesnt have ducks and chickens hanging in the window, it isn't authentic Chinese food lol

^ Ducks and chickens? Do you mean SUNSHINE and RAINBOWS?

There's something somewhere in the rules about having a sense of humor. Go make a scene somewhere else.

Oh sorry, that's totally my bad. I forgot casual racism is hilarious.

[I love pie]

^Casual racism is hilarious though.

[coasterbill]

Good god, people are so thin skinned. Nobody was trying to offend anyone.

[Mossed]

As one of my favorite comedians Patrice O'Neal would say, "Funny is funny". Intent is what matters here. I mean, come on man... You're not actually offended by what was written.

 

... I am offended about how quickly we got off the topic of Melt, though. Let's get to the point.

[prozach626]

One of us has to be a man about this, so I guess I will go ahead and apologize, despite you completely overreacting. My days of internet arguing over stupid bullsh*t are over.
