OK now I am pretty convinced places mine this forum for article fare. Even in Bakersfield this place is so far from mainstream… seriously nobody knows about this place. Like I said in the post, my boss was a Punjabi woman who worked in Bakersfield for years and never heard of it. There are a sea of Indian restaurants here and they all have indoor seating and, most importantly of all, buffets, and that attracts 90% of the people here. There is absolutely no way they ever should have heard of this place.
So in case NYT needs it or any of you care, we also have the best BBQ (especially for brisket lovers, which I know you all are) IN SOCAL.
Yes, the best brisket within 200 miles of DTLA is in Bakersfield and I really don’t think any of you who come to try it will disagree with that. In Texas it’d be good.
The place is called Porkchop ‘n’ Bubbas. It deserves its own thread and I intended to make one but I don’t want to annoy you guys with Bakersfield stuff and if I put it in the proper forum, none of you would read it. So I’m just burying it in this thread to avoid starting a new one, but mods – feel free to do what you want.
