Logo of Noodles Delight restaurant Leah, Dick and I find more than a few dee-liteful items on the menu at Noodles Delight out in the Chicago suburb of Roselle.

The eggrolls are especially good, with lots of substantial fillings, not, as Leah puts it, like those at many other Chinese restaurants, which often are "sleazy and with too much cabbage."

Related (and unrelated) topics we chat about while rolling merrily through the suburbs in the Mobile Recording Studio include but are not limited to:

A&W's Burger Family. Out in Hillsboro, Oregon, the Burger Family endured quite a bit of local drama.

Burger King's new broilers, and whether they make the burgers taste better.

Hardee's, for which none other than the late Mama Cass Elliott sang the praises. "Hurry on down to Hardee's, where the burgers are charco-broiled!"

The ever-popular General Tso's chicken.

Sensurround, which I experienced for the first time when the film "Earthquake" showed at Denver's Aladdin Theater. The low-frequency rumbling managed to shake loose bits of stucco, so netting was strung on the ceiling.

Farfel the Dog, who sang the Nestle's song. (By the way, here are the fractured lyrics that I learned back when I attended Wheat Ridge Junior High School: "N-E-S-T-L-E-S, guess what's up your A-S-S ... chawk-lit!")

Cars used in James Bond movies, and whether we'd rather have an ejector seat or hub-mounted tire-slashers.

Place names such as Des Plaines, Illinois, a victim of how Americans mangle French words; Gays, Illinois, (a town with a frequent visitor to this website); Mattoon, Illinois, home of the Mad Gasser; and various places with the word squaw.
