Actually It spawns a number of thoughts. Consider for a while, what is my favorite movie? That was a prompt a while back.

No, I am not getting off the subject, not at all. You see, one of my favorite movies is “Finian’s Rainbow.” By the way, if my memory serves me, I didn’t list it as I should have.

In the movie, there was a song in which the main line was, “When I’m not near the girl I love, I love the girl l’m near.” If I might digress for a short time longer, it really had a catchy tune and wonderful lyrics. It was really popular for a while. If you haven’t heard it, please look it up.

Now, back to restaurants. When I am in Abbay’s I love it. There are 4 or 5 good things on the menu and it is just almost impossible to find a seat before it’s ready. McDonald’s can’t hold a candle to that fast service.

When I am in McCalister’s, it is my favorite. I love McCalister’s more than all the rest. It has a wide variety to choose from, and it makes so difficult to choose. The wife and I always order their potato soup, regardless of what else we get, unless it is the roast beef on baked potato. Not only is that redundant but too much to eat at one time.

I think there are many people in the area that think Huey’s is the best. They are famous for thehamburgers but I am partial to the shrimp and steak on a stick. If you like your French fries thick and piping hot, you’ll like you’ll like it here. I love the place and my mouth has often been burnt by the fries. You’d think I would learn.

I imagine you have figured it out by now. When I’m not in the restaurant I love, I love the restaurant I’m in. However, you’ll not find me in a McDonald’s anymore. 15 minutes for a lukewarm Big Mac is not my idea of a restaurant I love.

By the way, Dale’s is another of my favorites. They have excellent food at a decent price and pleasant settings. However, Dale’s is one of those fine restaurants that was really hit by the virus. I still guess I will have to call it my favorite. They have hamburger steak covered with gravy, onions and bell peppers… well, it’s beyond description.
