Does this sound good?

City Bites (primarily a sandwich shop) is offering a Thanksgiving baked potato. A huge potato topped with turkey, stuffing, gravy, and a side of cranberry sauce. I’m not sure I could do the gravy on it. I realize we put gravy on mashed potatoes, but for some reason, maybe my recent nausea problems, that part sounds iffy. Plus, some people’s gravy isn’t good. What do you think?

@AmbiePam I don't think so..doesn't sound familiar. If they are expanding though...we might well get one. in Central Virginia. Richmond is a huge foodie town, one of the reasons I like it.

@snowy22315 You’d love them. Their cookies are huge, and the pumpkin cookies are delicious. The baked potatoes are large and the toppings are inventive. And the sub sandwiches are fresh and original. I used to love the seafood sub.

If I am having a baked potato, I want a steak next to it.

Yum it sounds good maybe you could ask for it without the gravy or ask for the gravy on the side.

Yes, on the side is a good idea.

@AmbiePam Yeah that way it is not to overloaded and if you don’t like the gravy you don’t have to eat it

Whoa. Where exactly do they put all that--unless they have really big taters!

They do. The potatoes take up 3/4 of a plate once they are cut in half, and toppings are applied. They are huge, and cost about thirteen dollars.

@xstitcher I’d rather make my own small one at home with just sour cream and cheddar cheese.

I don't enjoy gravy. I'm a vegetarian. But I love to taste fried potatoes.

I haven't heard of that restaurant. But the potato sounds good. Not sure I would want gravy on it, either, there's more than enough there without gravy. Plus, I don't think of baked potatoes having gravy somehow.

I realize baked or mashed it’s the same food, but the texture really makes a difference.

@AmbiePam Textures can make a huge difference in whether or not I want to eat something, so I totally understand it.

You’ll have to let us know how it tasted.

I think I'd try it! I'd probably have more of an issue with the cranberry sauce (sometimes it's just way too sweet or chunky for me) - but as long as it is on the side, that's fine. I love gravy - especially to bind it all together, but sometimes restaurant gravies can be too salty. Oh man, sorry you are experiencing nausea!

It does seem to depend on the gravy. You just never know how people are going to make it.

I am not a fan of gravy, but this Thanksgiving baked potato sounds good.

I guess that’s why they put it on the side. Just in case it sounded iffy to other people too. I don’t think I could eat cranberry sauce on a potato.

I love all that food but not sure I'd want it all on top of a baked potato. Guess it's something I'd have to try?

Yeah, I hate to say no without trying it, but by itself is how I’d prefer it.

I make baked potatoes in an airfryer but usually use veggies for stuffing and have my Indian chutney.

I would think you could stuff a baked potato with most anything. A smoked salmon cafe in the town South of me stuffs big bakers with smoked salmon and smoked cheese.

If it was sausage gravy, and no stuffing I'd be all over that!
