April 15, 20223 yr Westheimer Luby’s better deliver after church this Sunday. Trying to figure out if we should do Postino’s Town and Country first. Wine first is tempting. 60 minutes of waiting for people to take communion is tough sledding.

April 15, 20223 yr We never had sonic. Just Butter Krust and Big Red. I don’t think I ever had one stay on more than 2 weeks.

We had the local electric coop book covers. Good on them I guess for contributing, but my best friends dad was a lineman for them and died on the job. I always wondered how he felt about the book covers.

April 18, 20223 yr After reading, I've decided a Luby's trip is in my near future. My go to: Fried fish rectangle w/ tartar sauce fried okra black-eyed peas cornbread fruit salad chocolate pie unsweet tea
April 21, 20223 yr If my choice doesn't need to be healthy, and let's face it, I'm at Luby's: Roll with a pat of butter between two squares of waxed paper Fried fish rectangle with tartar sauce Mac n Cheese (with standard amount of crack sprinkled on it) Some other side (this is a game time decision and is almost never green beans). I know it's a start of the line item, but call it dessert . . . Red Jello Cubes Unsweet tea Edited April 21, 20223 yr by dcbc

April 22, 20223 yr I hate that we now have to specify "unsweet tea" when listing our orders. Twenty years ago, that was just called "tea" or perhaps "iced tea."
April 22, 20223 yr Hit the Luby's out Westheimer a couple of days ago. Based entirely on the comments above, I eschewed my usual square fish for the chicken fried steak with cream gravy, mashed potatoes with brown gravy, pinto beans and roll with butter. It was not only by far the worst meal I've ever had at Luby's, it was one of the worst meals I've ever had in my life. Dry, flavorless, over battered, cold, it was inedible. The pintos were pretty good, the rest straight garbage. I have fond memories of Luby's, but its just not good anymore.

I grew up in Houston and it never was a question. You got unsweet tea and if you wanted to sweeten it, there was any color of sweetener packet you could imagine on the table (or leveling the uneven table leg). When I moved to Tyler 20 years ago, and first heard the syrupy spoken question/fragment, "Swueet or Unswueet?" I realized how different things were going to be here. It's a pain in the ass at the drive thru, too. I never leave without tasting it first. It would be easier to call it "tea" and "sweet tea" or "tea" and "disgusting nastiness." Just something that can be distinguished over the early 20th century drive thru communication technology. Edited April 22, 20223 yr by dcbc

Add sugar. Add a cup of tea. Add sugar. Takes five minutes to fill a glass. “Sweet or Un?” Is the state question. If you order Un you might be getting the Mr Tibbs treatment.
April 23, 20223 yr Stopped off in Miss on our way back home from vacation years ago and forgot to mention to the wife and Jr that they serve sweet tea and they both were putting sweet n low in their teas. The tea spray from spitting it out soon followed, waitress got a kick out of it as did I.

Yeah, closed recently. Honestly, needed to be put out of its misery. They had gotten rid of the green cloth napkins, the salad bar was now just crummy salads in plastic containers, and it just had a bad vibe. Thankful, however, that I got my kid there a couple of times before it closed. Dude LOVES it... primarily because we get a big piece of pie.

I went to the one in The Woodlands a couple of weeks ago and the experience was pretty "meh". The fried fish was still delicious, but the mashed potatoes were just a big ice cream scoop in a bowl and the black eyed peas tasted like they had been there for days. As much as I've always loved Luby's and the fond memories from there, I'm not sure I'll go back.
