Great food stops

Couple times a year at least.

One of our favorite places.

Thanks for the recommendations!

 

When I was a kid we used to go to Pennsylvania Dutch Country every year and I told my kids how good the food was. As part of the college tour circuit this fall, we went with my HS senior to Franklin & Marshall and stopped by one of the buffet places on the way out of town (can’t remember which one). It was inedible crap. Even the shoo fly pie.

 

I hear the Old Hickory House in Forrest Park, Georgia made a decent Diablo Sandwich.
“Hush puppies Daddy…….”
“We ain’t got no time for that krap!”
“Dumb some bitch”

 

I don't think it survived COVID, but the Brookeville Hotel in Abilene, Kansas, was an amazing stop. Their menu was simple: Adults get a half a fried chicken, kids get a quarter, cream corn, whipped cole slaw, pickled peaches, mashed potatoes, and the best damn biscuits I've ever had.

Awesome.

 

Spike's Keg O' Nails in Grayling, Mich. was always a great stop for a Spike Burger in my days on the road in junior hockey.

 

Never thought I'd see my high school stomping grounds mentioned around these parts. Brookville Hotel was amazing. And is currently trying to get fully reopened with some similar recipes.

That creamed corn is the stuff dreams are made of.

If you make your way through Abilene (it has Eisenhower's Presidential Library and Museum there), Mr. K's Farmhouse (formerly Lena's) is going to reopen later this year after a reno. Both Ike and Mamie were paddled on their birthdays there.

Now I live in DFW and if I need my Brookville fix, I go to Babe's. There's one 3 blocks from my house. I frequently block that fact out for my waistline's sake.

 

we loved it and ate there pretty often while I was stationed at Riley. We took everyone who came to visit.

Nice!

(We're a Duff's family, but I take this as an ironclad 5-star recommendation.)

 

Are any of them vegan?
