"They're open until 5 in the morning. Hoops. The bars close at 4am and when you go there you can't even move. It's pizza. It's probably one of the best Italian or French Dip sandwiches you?ll ever have in your life."

"Avanti's is a good place. I pretty much used to live off their pizza and salad when I had no money."

"A great late night place in Chicago is called Maxwell Street. It's a stand in the street that sells bone-in pork chop sandwiches. I've woken up to about 100 different bags of it, after 100 different nights of drinking."

"Absolutely the best steak you'll ever have is at Jack's Grill. It comes on a 4-inch flat grill, and it's just the best steakhouse on the planet. It's a little hole-in-the-wall dive in Redding California. That place will change your damn life. Their salad is chopped lettuce and French-style cut green beans cold. Then there's the dressing. They've got homemade blue cheese, homemade French, homemade Ranch and vinegar and oil. They toss the dressing in the salad. My wife and I always get French and blue cheese mixed. The steaks there are over the top. They?re cooked on such a hot flat grill that it sears it on the outside, so there?s a little kind of crust on it, and it just locks in all of the taste. It?s unbelievable! I sent them a plaque actually, a gold record for Mudvayne?s "Lost and Found," and they hung it on the wall. It's one of my favorite places, and they're some of my favorite people too. That's the main thing I like in Redding."

"Campo Verde is in Arlington. It's this crazy Mexican Restaurant. You walk in, and the entire place is covered in Christmas lights on the inside. If you order the nachos, they come out in the beginning, and they've got one with cheese and one that?s got actual salsa, and they sprinkle some kind of a spice on the chips, and it's just unreal. Their hard shell taco meal is insane. I guess at Christmas time they go nuts. You've got to put sunglasses on to walk in there because literally they cover literally every single thing in the restaurant with Christmas lights, the bar, the ceiling, the walls, the toothpick holders, everything. That was one of (Deceased Pantera guitarist) Dime's favorite places to go. He used to take bands out there for tequila and rattlesnake. In the morning they'd have rattlesnake and tequila. That's a little insight on that."
