Most unique/remote restaurant you have ate at
-
I wish I would have read of Tex_77 location, we just spent two weeks roaming about the DFW - New Braunfels - Abilene area Jan/Feb. There are a lot of small Mom and Pop places along some back roads that I never made it all the way down. Good 'Que and food had at all. I know of a few of those similar places through out Europe. I recall one in Germany you leave the main two lane onto a much narrower two lane to a gravel road, through farm fields onto a two rut through the woods magically arriving at a gravel parking lot near a small chalet restaurant. I will be out and about in the Abilene area in about three months, if we are out of lock down, and will make an pilgrimage to the steakhouse.

YooperDog I’ve got all kinds of recommendations for places to eat in Texas. If you are down in the Fredricksburg area I hear Alamo Springs Cafe is the bomb, never been, but it’s on the list. If you are in Lockhart, Chisholm Trail is where the locals go, and it is half the price of the more famous places and just as good. Do you ever get to Amarillo? If so I can give a bunch of recommendations for there.

- Tex_77 I will definitely do that. We lived in Lubbock and San Antonio a lifetime ago. I have family near the DFW area and get down to the Abilene area and such a couple of times a year. Looking forward to getting out on the bikes and burning some fossil fuel. We live about 1500 miles north of Abilene. I can’t say if I have ever ever been to Amarillo, but I always looking for a good meal.

YooperDog So have you been to Jackson Brother’s Meat and had there jerky? It’s in a town just outside of Lubbock. Did they have Red Raider Meats at Tech when you were there? What are the must eat places in Lubbock, I know when I was down there last I did not do the food scene justice, other than have the “He Man Woman Hater” burger at Spanky’s.

Not sure what is happening but this posting each time I try to get back to the original page.

YooperDog Judging by your name I assume you are in the UP of Michigan?

I haven’t lived in the Lubbock area since 1985, been awhile when you put it that way. So unfortunately I can’t help you out there. Yes, as they say up here eh’ God’s country. Biggest city near us is Marquette, we live among the trees and wildlife here. Winter is still in full swing and have 2+ feet of snow on the ground

YooperDog Nice, it was in the 70’s yesterday here, and mid 60’s today. Tomorrow is a different story, we are suppose to have single digit windchills.

My wife likes the central/south central areas of TX, but not a big fan of the big bugs and snakes. We have been spending more time down that way each year.

YooperDog I want to get down to Big Bend Country and see Marfa and the likes, we also love the hill country and Amarillo! West Texan’s are just like Western Kansan for the most part.

Try to get to SAT for the lights on the River Walk. We may start spending more time down that way as we are getting tired of the long winters and needing a way to break it up. I still like my ice fishing though and not a fan of crowds.

I will have to check in when we head that way. We have the TX hill country on our bucket list

YooperDog I’ve done the River Walk, but it was back in my younger day. I do want to get down there soon though. May try and make it there this summer if we got to Kerrville.

Tex_77 I did post one out there on their website, but for the folks here The Perinni’s Steakhouse in Buffalo Gap, TX is worth it’s out of the way location for a great steak and unique atmosphere. My wife and I just came back from a trip through the TX hill country, blue bonnets are in full bloom through out. Stopped in on our way from Fredericksburg to Abilene. I had the ribeye and my wife had the tenderloin. Both cooked to perfection and seasoned well. Service was great and attentive. This is a come as you are place not fancy, but comfortable. It is highly recommended that you make reservations. Thanks again Tex_77 for the heads-up on this place.

It’s no longer around, but one of our favorite places was The Boondocks on the south fork of Taylor Bayou, south of Beaumont, Texas. It was great food in beautiful surroundings and certainly worth the hike out there. Part of the fun was looking and the gators and tossing hush puppies into the bayou to watch the turtles go after them.

I’m thinking I may have to visit some family in Texas soon! We have several restaurants in western NY, but the main one I’d sat that tops my list is any Brazilian steakhouse! Nothing better than endless meat!!! We actually used to go to Canada often for copacabana, best Brazilian steakhouse I’ve been to yet!

Had to find the picture on the internet, but we went here a few years ago on a trip to San Diego. Was a great place to eat fresh fish and chowder.

Well found a new one today, basically out in the middle of a bunch of corn fields in Nebraska. It’s between Holdrege and Axtell, NE. Its called the Speakeasy. The building was originally a feed and general store. The food was amazing.
