Good to see you haven't lost that east coast snootiness.

You can take the yankee out of the north east, but you can't take the north east out of the yankee.

I think you could order a steak (probably a filet) to go with your buffet at an additional charge. But I didn't want to pay more, and the steak would've just taken up room best reserved for the other stuff they had there.

I liked the appetizers they would bring around to your table. Escargot, Oysters Rockefeller, frog legs...

Frog legs....YUM!

But when it comes to oysters, raw on the half shell is the best.

You know what a yankee is don't you? It's like a quickie, but you do it by yourself.

Oh no. I can't do the raw oysters. That's too close to post nasal drip for me.

When I was young, we used to hunt bullfrogs all the time around my Grandparents' place...

Little rural town with a grain elevator...Kind of place where kids could run around all night with no problems. Heck, Dad of one of my buddies used to let us take his pickup out for it...we were all of 14.

The world has changed...much of it not for the better.

Damn good eating...and even better memories!

I remember my nextdoor neighbors as a kid, talking about going "frog gigging".

Fun stuff....

We often walked the banks with air guns, 22s, and a flash light...night shooting is fun stuff.

God I miss those days

$250 for two kids and two adults at an ayce buffet that had crab legs.

Sorry to cross my thread references, but you just got the **** taxed out of you.

Well you should get out more Councilor.
How about no one that has a reasonable education then

Lots of the Hoosiers believe its really a beach.
Probability because most Hoosiers have never actually been on a beach and smelled salt water.
Sad to say that by and large Hoosiers are not traveling willburys.

I've traveled fairly extensively. Extensively enough to know salt water isn't a requirement for a beach.

Crap legs, large steamed shrimp, lobster claws, stone crab claws, oysters along with food and deserts from around the world.

That place looks great. Never done Vegas seems like not a place for children? Just going off what I see that’s what has kept us out. And we aren’t much for the city life we stopped in Nashville…… a bit much for this country guy and family. Maybe in my drinking days We were at captain jacks in Panama City beach, the wharf (we prefer but was closed for the season) The amount of crab legs we put down in # paid for the trip lol

maybe we will wait on Vegas then.


I too love food. Lol so I am not doubting those meals were amazing. But it takes some SERIOUS photographer skills to make the photos look as good as they taste. My mom and I like to cook and will share pics and stuff I will make something delicious plate it up nice snap a pic looks like I slopped alpo on the plate in picture with flash and such.

Was this not meant for me?
It was a response to a post about me.



If not my humble apologies.

"True" is a stretch. More like a condescending opinion.
