Hello Mr. Brooks.
Thanks for that. Well, i'm am glad he liked what we eat here almost daily. I bet he would have loved eating at places like The Red Barn & Fudruckers in San Antonio and Cracker Barrel.
Making me hungry just thinking of those two great eateries. TRK.

The very best chicken-fried steak I ever ate was at a place called the Jailhouse Cafe in San Antonio. It's located in a very unprepossessing part of town (about 2 blocks from the city/county jail, and "on the wrong side of the tracks", but apparently it's an institution because the walls are covered with pictures of the owner and various celebrities and big-name politicians.
The menu offers a "Deputy Special" and a "Sheriff's Special". Don't ever order the "Sheriff's Special" unless you're absolutely famished because that sucker is about 18 inches in diameter, with a huge order of french-fries and some of the best cream gravy I've ever tasted. Damn, makes me hungry just thinking about it. :lol:
Another good restaurant in S.A. is La Posada del Rey for Mexican food. They make chicken enchiladas to die for. The best steaks I ever ate were at The Barn Door, which is on New Braunfels about 6 or 8 blocks south of Loop 410.
