Does this restaurant have a name?

Le Roi D'Hamburger.

I am so glad they re-opened the Le Roi D'Hamburger in this area.


I doubt you'd like the place *I* suggested. The customers there aren't
your kind of people.

I suppose that OG decided with all the fakers out there, they thought
they'd post their's so you could at least get it right...or wrong.

Olive Garden isn't haute cuisine, but it certainly is decent food at a
decent price. As someone who was born in and grew up in a city with a
huge percentage of recently immigrant Italian families, and as someone
who dated "extensively" many lovely Italian girls in my youth, I have a
taste for "real Italian food." There are several "Italian cuisines"
extant in Italy and in this country, and they are marvelously different
from each other.

I don't frequent Olive Garden but I have eaten there a few times over
the years, and I can't recall having a "bad meal." Was the food I
ordered and ate "genuine Italian," whatever that is? Surely not, but it
was "Italianate," as they say.

We have an immigrant Italian family in the area. They operate two
first-class family Italian restaurants, sort of like Louis Restaurant in
the Bronx (from Godfather I) but a little fancier.

Reggie, as usual, is demonstrating he doesn't know his ass from a hole
in the wall. For a guy who never discusses his life, his family, his
possessions, et cetera, he certainly has much in the way of criticism of
others.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah, we know you'd never, ever be critical of someone else's things,
what they like to fish for, what they like to do with their boats,
where they like to live, et cetera.......

You've got it made! There's nothing around my place to hear a

blues band, that is unless I go 100 mi. to the St. Louis area
then
there the blues joints seem to be a dime a dozen
I like "blues" in general, but most of the time you see amateur
blues
bands that suck - big time.
I like seeing local talent. There's lots and lots of damned good
musicians out there that have just not been *discovered*. It's a
damned hard racket to get into, especially if you have stars in
your
eyes.
Kind of ruins it for me.
Funny story about blues music. Way back in time, New Orleans
Civic
Auditorium - BB King and band.
I was still in the service and of my buddies got five of us
tickets -
excellant seats - third row back/center - out freakin'
standing.
I'm normally oblivious to things and I didn't notice that I was
the
only white guy sitting in that area - meaning floor seats -
kinda
stood out if you get what I mean.
So I'm digging on the music and having a great time - first set
goes
by, break, then out for the second set. Band is starting up
with
some
kind of high energy R&B thing and BB steps up to the
microphrone,
starts with Lucille and says - "This one's for the white guy
down
front" and swings into this rockin' blues number. I'm thinking
"white
guy down front" then my buddy says "I think he means you". I
look
around and sure enough... :)
Pretty cool.
There's a local blues club here that has local talent, and some
of
the
best soul food in the world! Almost all of the times I've been,
I've
been the only white guy in the place. The big ole lady that does
the
cooking calls me Bright, so now that's kinda my nickname in the
place!
She loves the fact that I feel comfortable there and love her
cooking!
What is the name and where is this club located?
I have always loved blues, including blues/rock groups such as the
Allman Bros. and Eric Clapton. Many years ago, Underground Atlanta
had
an old time musician who played the classic Black-blues (ie Muddy
Waters, Howling Wolf etc). I think his name was Red.- Hide quoted

At Dante's?
Nope, it was on the main street, it was a pub and he played at the
window. It was about a half a block from Dante's. I think he was
blind, but it has been many years. I have always thought of Dante's
asng playing Jazz , not blues.- Hide quoted text -

They go back and forth. Seems like I go to underground every couple
of
years, and Dante's is either blues or jazz. It's pretty much a
tourist
trap, anyway.- Hide quoted text -

There's a Dante's in the atlanta area? Unless it's a different
ownership, I thought there was only one Dante's and that was in LA
region. Really famous jazz club out there...

It is Dante's Down the Hatch. It was designed to resemble an old
windjammer. They used to have one in Underground, and one uptown in
Buckhead. They have closed the Underground
location.http://www.dantesdownthehatch.com/-Hidequoted text -

Now some of the best Q without the blues bands comes from Harold's.

What kind of sauce does Georgia use?- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

it's a slightly sweet, slightly tangy medium body sauce in northern
Georgia, a lot like Alabama's, except when you gete to southwest
georgia, and southeast Alabama, then it's a mustard sauce, though
thin, not like the thicker, sweeter, South Carolina mustard sauce.
Hehttp://www.fiery-foods.com/dave/bbqsauces.html

Like the North Carolina style better than the heavy tomato based sauces.
Last year of so in my smoker, I have gone more to rubs than scauces.
Watching food show the other day (I think travel channel) on South Carolina
and mustard based, *I am inspired to do a mustard que. *But cold and rainy
now. *Makes it too hard to get the temps correct in the smoker. *Offset
firebox style.- Hide quoted text -

I always use my homemade rub on pork. I'm not a die hard fan of any
one type of sauce, I like them all on occasion. I use my smoker all
year long. In northern Alabama they actually have a mayonaise based
white sauce thats actually quite good.
