Scent of fried chicken is in the air. I recall the nights my mom left me alone I would run over to the nearby Kentucky Fried Chicken and I smelled that scent before I got inside to place my order. I did not like being left alone but once in awhile I could go out… Continue reading Gala Chicken

Chicken Charlie’s FRYBQ
I’m a huge fan of Chicken Charlie’s facebook deal of the day. Everyday there is a new special. These are the dishes I’ve tried. Fried chicken was crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Very good flavor from the spices. A bit like Popeyes. This chicken is tastier but Popeyes is cheaper.

Howlin’ Ray’s
Saturday 10am. It’s opening time and there is a huge line. Luckily most of the line was in the shade so while it was hot and humid you won’t get sunburned.

I’ve never been to Jamaica to try Jamaican food at it’s source but I had good Jamaican food in the Cayman Islands. Allspice, nutmeg, and… Continue reading Rock Steady Jamaican Restaurant
Darbi’s Cafe
When I was a kid I remember going up to the mountains to play in the snow. After a few hours of frozen fun we would eat at a local rustic looking cafe or diner. Now it looks like the fast food chains are invading the Pinetop area. There are still old school places though… Continue reading Darbi’s Cafe
