I wish they would move the waukee one out to jordan creek or west glen

Yeah, id guess either of those would be a lot more trafficked, though im sure the price to own is higher there. The whole area out there is set to change pretty rapidly as soon as the interchange at alice's road completes along with the connection of it from ashworth to university. A ton of signs popping up for various retail\restaurant\commercial development land.

On similar local chain news, jordan creek is getting a tasty tacos by this fall.

I definitely do not agree.

I definitely agree with your non-agreement. Jethro's cost more, but you get a whole plate of food that tastes better IMO. Cactus Bob's is ok for a lunch sandwich but not a good dinner place. Jethro's often get's you leftovers for two meals.

I like both Jethro's and Smokey D's but I think Flying Mango is the best BBQ I've had in the metro.

Dont get me wrong, I love Jethros. But Smokey D's is the pinnacle of BBQ in the metro. Maybe even in Iowa.

Can you describe the taste difference between the two ? Why is one better than the other?
