If I were a smoker this would be paradise… you can smoke most anywhere in the restaurant, and the«non-smoking section» is 5 booths along the side wall… it’s comical, and it feels like 1985 all over again. So my buddy and I were heading to Louisiana for the weekend and we got out of Dallas late, I started to get HONGRY so we wheeled into McDonald’s(not the chain fast food, the we’ve been here since 72′, and that’s well before McDonalds put up shop everywhere). But you didn’t need to know all of that… you’re just looking for the food review. Well, I got the chicken fried steak, lemme tell you something, it was a whopper! However let me also tell you something else… it wasn’t that good. You know how you can eat a crispy french fry, or a crispy fried chicken, and you get a good crunch? Well, when you cut and bit into the CFS, it was really hard… like cutting into, oh I dunno, CONCRETE! The thing was though… it was decent, like not as good as All Good Café or Po’ Melvins(seriously, go to Po’ Melvins in Irving TX…), but it was good. So in conclusion, if you hate the fast food chain, love smoking and fried foods, stop in… but try something else, like maybe the fried catfish.

Magic diner between Dallas and Tyler, on Hwy 20, but closer to Dallas: This place looks like a filthy greasy spoon that is to be avoided at all costs. It is exactly the opposite. It is not affiliated with Ronald McDonald, that’s just one of the many amazing facts about this place. It’s just a dump with great food. I had some of the best chips and salsa I’ve had in a restaurant which was a surprise because there are almost no Mexican items on the menu. I spotted a few Mexican items working in the kitchen so I had a feeling it was one of those places that have good Mexican food and crappy white people food. I saw«Catfish and Hush Puppies» on the menu and I decided to go for it. Catfish is a bottoom feeder so I usually avoid it. Why I ordered it in a place that already frightened me, I don’t know. It was God’s will. I didn’t know what a Hush Puppy was but I wanted to like it and I did. It’s like fried corn bread. Fry everything, why not? The catfish was tasty, fresh, full of flavor, perfect. I want more. My wife had the chicken fried steak and she was blown away, especially when she found out it wasn’t chicken. So we didn’t really eat any of the BBQ but I bet it’s delicious like everything else in this dingy hole. Also, big giant Texas style Cokes with lots of ice. Very civilized. Check out the cool painting of the clown taking a bath in the smoking section. That will cheer you up.
