Bennigans? I have a soft spot for them--I was addicted to their godawful chicken quesadillas for quite a while.
Know who else is supposed to disappear? Kinkos. FedexKinkos is supposed to take them off the signage, although I don't think any closures are planned. More nostalgia for me, of about the same period.
Isn't he also the guy who wouldn't back down on building the bridge o' pork, aka the bridge to nowhere?
Yes, yes he is. Also, bringing a Cray II into the Geophysical Institute to crunch data in order to see if the Northern Lights have any harnessable energy.
I guess Alaskans are looking to new political models: [link]
In Alabama?
The Bennigan's story was all over the news this morning. I haven't been to one in a while, so it won't be any big for me, but I did like their burgers.
Yay, shrift!!!!!
Bennigan's and Steak and Ale going out of business!
There was the random rogue Stake and Ale still in existence (I found one in Tampa). The Bennigan's in Ocala was struggling. WH and I went there for lunch a couple weeks ago and it was pretty empty. I'll miss their potato soup and Turkey O'Tool sandwich.
Bennigans was the first place I had a drink as a legal drinker.
Okay, y'all. I talked to a friend of mine and she has a new food in the bacon front. A friend of hers made Bacon Vodka. Yes, Bacon. Vodka.
They have that at the place we are playing in Vegas on thursday. I love bacon and I love vodka but I couldn't bring myself to try it (those who did pronounced it "foul"). There's a Russian restaurant here that has great Russian vodka in odd flavors. My favorite was horseradish. so spicy and yum!!!
This year my bandmates and I are only drinking rum. We have a nautical theme going.
Go shrift! Much Google-ma!
Allyson, your book sounds adorable. I can't wait to order a copy.
Echoing the Google ~ma! I always thought it looked like a cool working environment.
I think we still had a Steak and Ale in town although I hadn't eaten there in twenty years.
