I love going to Alamo Drafthouse to see a movie! Where else can you share a pitcher of cold beer, a basket of fried pickles, AND watch the latest flick or see a cult favorite? The menu is your typical American-fare type stuff, but it's usually expanded with yummy specialties for certain movies. (For example, when we saw The Simpsons Movie, Buzz Cola was on the menu.)
Last night we saw Stardust, a fairly entertaining film adaptation of the book by the same name. There were no fairy-related food stuffs*, so Mark and I split a frosty pitcher of Shiner Bock and Melinda helped us nosh on a basket of fried pickle spears. Alamo's pickles are quite tasty. For my meal, I ordered the "Over the Top Dog" which is a 1/4 lb hot dog in a toasted hoagie bun. The dog was great, but the bun was wayyy too big. I ended up eating only half the bread. Ketchup, mustard, and relish come on the side so you can dress it how you like. The fries were crisp and potato-y, just the way I like them. Overall, a very filling meal.
*What do fairies eat, anyway?

Did you try Buzz cola?? I'm surprised Krusty-O's didn't show up on the menu, what with the free Rusty-O that appears in each box. Yummy!
I too enjoy the Alamo. Denton had a similar theater but it couldn't beat the original!
