Peanut Buckets Coming to DAWGTOWN

Saw parked cars and cars in drive-through last night and today at noon at the new Johnny's on Kentucky. Was that a soft opening, or are they officially open?

They are open. Was forced to eat there this week (I'm transitioning into a slim and sexy beast). It was quite good.

I (partly) kid. It would be nice though. I love the atmosphere at Enochs in Monroe (+ $3 draft on Mondays is hard to beat).

Old Baptists were probably not the target market for 3docs.

That's my tongue-in-cheek point.

Really good burgers. Get the St Patrick's (comes with avocado) and add bacon, or the County Mamou if you're adventurous. That one is a burger, diced shrimp, provolone, and a tomato based sauce. Best pint of Guinness in the area too. Tuesdays are 2-for-1 burgers, but get there early. They get packed really fast.

I live on Roselawn, so I'm there pretty frequently.

will they have high school bands and the mayor to celebrate the openning like they did in monroe?

I visited a walmart marketplace in Denton to get an understanding of the hype...and it was a Walmart, albeit better (read: cleaner and better laid out) than the ones in Ruston Monroe and WM. I'm apparently missing out on the hype.

The hype for Monroe was that the SuperWalmart was so crime-ridden it was basically a slice of Detroit. The new one was a fresh (no pun intended) start. But we'll see how long that lasts.

I would appreciate (as would many other students, I imagine) a Walmart that wasn't on the other side of the interstate. Convenience is king.

I can see that. When I look at a propert map, I am struggling to see where they will find property close to campus to locate one...but I'm sure they will find something.

And I am biased, as i detest Walmart.

I'll take wherever gives me a good deal on edibles. Not in a position to be picky, haha.

I heard another steak house type chain. Not confirmed.

Word on Lone Star closing was bad location, but it was just bad and very nasty.
