Popeye's and Taco Sloppo.... errrr Bell. And a local Rib-A-Que place that has a mop sauce that will light your arse UP! I know Popeye's Spicy Cajun and Taco Chihuahua aren't all that hot. But, like Wendy's - itza start. >It seems popular enough to have hung around this long; you'd think others >would take the hint and try something similar... and not just by name, as they >have.

What we get is Steak & Shake retreads with an attitude and McDonalds rejects. Springpatch is doing pretty well. We have the worst Old Country Buffet I have ever been in and a nasty Culver's. OTOH we have a couple nice Thai places that believe you when you say hot (plus have pots of ground red chile on the table - with a large spoon). And an Indian place which can get intreresting when one orders Goanese and some Balti dishes. ENJOY!!! Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen Home of Hardin Cider & Yaaaaa Hoooo Ahhhhh Hot Sauce!!!
