ORIGINAL: jrcar The first time I visited the US I went into one of these places, then like many other Aussies laughed my head off when I looked at the menu... not a single thing that was Aussie! Ranch dressing, what is that?, Cheese fries? Why would you put cheese on chips? (although I now appreciate mayonnaise after several trips to Holland). Cheers Rob Aw, you kidder, you. You really had me going for a moment thinking that cheese fries with ranch dressing isn't Aussie. But then I remember all of the antique boomerangs on the walls and how on the television commercial they talk all funny and say "g'day" and I know that Outback is the real deal. They sure know how to cook chicken in Alice Springs: chicken with bacon and melted cheese on top and honey-mustard dressing. Between that and the cheese fries, you Aussies sure get your fill of melted cheese and dressings. Not sure how you all managed all that goodness in the outback, but my hat's off to you all. Sure wish we cooked like that here in the U.S. Cheese will go on anything: grits, hash browns, anything you'd put between two pieces of bread, eggs - anything but maybe steak. Cheese on chips is even better when you add chili - making chili cheese fries - but the ranch dressing makes the cheese fries at the Outback pretty darned good. And, apparently, very fattening.
