What do you think about Navy food?

[DanMa1156]

As far as eating on base: I usually always brought my food in the fleet while we were home. Occasionally, I'd go out to eat, but my squadron had a pretty good leftover game and the JO's routinely took over the ready room and its microwave to dine together.

No one should be going to Subway in Fallon for lunch. That is what Slanted Porch takeout and the most junior JO picking it up are for.

Can we see a menu ?

Yep. http://www.slantedporch.com/lunch/

I will also add that while their lunches are really good, their dinners are even better. It's like a little oasis in the middle of nowhere. The chef's brother and father are ranchers so when he needs beef, he goes and gets it fresh. I generally have a rule of no eating seafood in the desert but not there. It used to be hard to get a decent meal in Fallon if you weren't looking for Mexican but that all changed with the Porch.

Maine Street and Courtyard Cafe are both great too. And for a completely different dinner option, VN Pho is pretty awesome. Fallon has a surprising number of good places these days.

How did I not know Slanted Porch does take-out?!?!

I'm guessing you did t have 5-10 useless new guys arcing around the RR to task for lunch. So much cheap labor in an F squadron.

Yeah, that's true. We were amazed by our F squadron's ability to multiply on cruise. It seemed like every week there was a new JG in that squadron.

One thing I will say for the Marines - on my last Afghanistan tour we had two, count it, two, Marines from ANGLICO at this tiny Army COP. On November 10, a USMC bird comes hovering in with birthday cake, ice cream, and ceremony instructions...enough for all to partake. I was impressed.

And don't even bother trying to go to the NAS Fallon Subway around those times during Air Wing.

Do they still have a geedunk in the Air Wing hangar? Used to hit that up for lunch most days on my one trip to Fallon years ago.

Sadly, they stopped doing dinner a couple months back, at least aside from private parties as I understand. Granted I lived in fernley, and as such, generally ate out in Reno/sparks so I'm not 100% positive about this, just what I've heard at work.

Only formal "geedunk" is over in the FTB, but during AWF and SFARP most fleet FCPOA's will run a breakfast griddle and lunch grill option, at both hangars. NAWDC will occasionally do the same during AWF at the HQ building, though the CS1 who made the tasty b-fast burritos has since left the command

Who's that on your profile picture. I need it for uh a school project.
