has anyone ever had Raisin' Canes chicken fingers? They are the best i have ever eaten - yes, even better than Guthries - with a side of crinkle cut fries and a large Dr Pepper - and they have Sonic ice too. They have the orangey special sauce stuff but I am partial to their wonderful honey mustard. How they got started and what the guy did to raise the money is a great story - you should check out his website.
Captain D's is a rare, guilty secret - fish and shrimp only tho - the fries and hushpuppies are nasty.
Mc D's has the best fries PERIOD. And Kev, they must just hate you - I get salted fries at our drive thru. As of this writing, my kids do not know that you can go inside a McDonald's for anything other than to pee - I told them the play area was just a decoration... so far, they are buying it. Our McD's is next door to a Sonic, so I go thru McD's get two small hamburgers, no oinions, and a large fry, then pull in to Sonic for my Dr Pepper. I hate the ice in a McD's drink - flat ice waters down your drink immediately. Sonic ice is the ultimate.
We FINALLY got a Krystals on my side of Houston about two years ago - 5 regular Krystals no onions, no fries, no drink - it is also next door to a Sonic, and I would rather make two stops than have a nasty watered down Dr Pepper.
I miss the Hardee's Big Cookie... *sigh*
There is a place in Huntsville, TX - Mt Zion Missionary Church - that sells BBQ out of their kitchen. Can I get an AMEN! and a HALALUJAH!! for the brothers and sisters who done brought more than one honky soul to the light. Damn fine eating. Not a lot of ambiance, but who gives a crap - the food is a sin itself.
Oh, and chinook - thanks for the clarification on the carl thing. :thumbsup:
Now my exhausted self feels the gentle arms of Ambien easing me down in to relazation and sleep. It turns my keyboard keys into marshmallows...black marshmallows with white leters on them... and to continue on like this usually gets me in trouble, so bon nuit, ma freres... you know, I love you guys, each and every one of you, except maybe the bammers, but BHM is growing on me, and rws keeps coming back for his licks, so you gotta respect that gumption. And the pork rind boys have become almost like kin - backwoods redbneck inbred kin that you don't necessarily invite over to Sunday dinner with the pastor, but are more than welcome for a large outdoor crawfish boil where the other guests will eventually wind up as drunk as the Arkies are when arrive. So yeah, I love y'all, you buncha miscreants. Even those of you who are displeased with the Wench at this time - it's all good... and so is this buzz... good night, good night, parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night til it be morrow...
