I personally miss Jack in the Box Tacos and the 3am drive thru trips.

Their tacos were great. I miss them too. Obviously they were quite popular because the last time I was on the Jack in the Box website to see if there were any stores left around here, the FAQ has a question about purchasing the tacos online. Alas, they do not sell them except in their stores.
Burger King had tacos a couple of years ago that were very similar to the Jack tacos. I don't believe they sell them any longer.

well this is a recent one but I was pretty annoyed that Brennan & Carr shut down in RVC. They still have the original in Brooklyn but I don't get over there all that often.

I use to live near the Brennan & Carr in Brooklyn. I never could figure out why people got so excited over that place. Nothing special about their roast beef.

Aren't you the one who made the brilliant post about making these, with the "carelessly placed "cheese"? That was a like a Shakesperian Sonnet the way you described the process of preparing these tacos!!

The Lazy Clam in Smithtown!!! Only ate there once and it was amazing; the best seafood restaurant I had ever been to. I still don't know why it closed down. I really hope the owners make another restaurant sometime.

I really hope Long Island gets a Steak and Shake. They're in the midwest and south. I always eat there when I'm in Florida visiting family.
