CFS; there' s not even a question. I think the better question would include various forms of bbq/mexican food. I daresay Chicken and Dumplings hurts CFS's strength of schedule.
Why not Chicken Fried Steak versus Meatloaf. Yeah, that's a blowout, too. Or Fried Liver?
I think the OP is just some kind of deviant. Now: Chicken Fried Steak v. BBQ? That's a pick 'em. Chicken Fried Steak v. Homemade Tamales? MGM Sports Book says "No line".
Yes, Dot's has re-opened in Pflugerville, on the opposite side of the street from Pflugerville High School, a little south of the school, in a strip center. Same great food!
I haven't tried the chicken and dumplings there, but that would be the place to try them.
Both can be good, but I'll take CFS because I like it better, and for one other very good reason. CFS is easier to make palatable at restaurants, but chicken and dumplings can often be a mushy tasteless soup. It may require a better cook to make well, unlike CFS.
