we had locals in the mess hall in naples and sigonella, nothing like a bunch of italians and sicilians slingin grub.

one had a food cart he brought around, footlongs on home made italian bread buns, kraut, all kinds of fixins he could add best dam footlong in the world.
he did donuts in the mornings, things were probably 6-7" across and the best I ever ate, nothing but sugar covered.




Okie city there was a shotgun sams, shakeys, pizza inn all within a mile on 39th street between meridian and mcarthur. 39th was our fri/sat. night drag strip and hang out and their parking lots were our favorite.

They closed a lot of them

There were several in my area and now there’s one

Introduced several newbies to that place, I did wonder if the inspectors ever went there. (Other than to eat there) It was really good ! ! !

Loved Godfathers pizza growing up in the Midwest. Are they still around?

Are there a lot as a kid. Miss that fried cinnamon ice cream.

Shotgun Sams and Shakeys are the first places I can remember going out to eat when I was a kid. I have no idea if they were any good but they were fun. One of them had the dancing animal band? Maybe mice? Way before Chuck E.Cheese.

I miss my grandma's cooking.

Shotgun Sam's. I still crave that place.

Mecca was legit. Steak and ale, tony roma's.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Bonanza, or Western Sizzlin'. Not saying I miss them or that they were even mediocre at best, but someone has to miss them.

There was a restaurant called Tia's in dallas back when I was a kid and it was my favorite. Wish I could still go there. I have no idea exactly where it was.

Here ya go, fellow Okies -
Applewoods in the City, Underwoods, Mazzio's pizza, Picadilly's in Wichita Falls

Picadilly's was legit, we went there every Sunday after church.
