The Peanut Gallery. Could never remember the name of that place. The Grapevine. My wife--girlfriend then--got me eating salads at that place. She got a waitress to give her the recipe for their Sangria, and she still makes it all the time. At our tailgates during football it is one of the staples.

Catfish Kitchen, I think it was called. Out towards Snook. Ate there on Sunday nights when everything else was closed.

NY Subs was shady. They still owe most employees roughly a month in pay. The owners / mangement outright lied to the staff to keep them working for free.

The La Taqueria

The LaTaq had carne guisada and ice tea that would cure any hangover.

..... and, at one time The Deluxe Burger had a Jap cheeseburger and cheese fries that would induce a coma.

Flying Tomato/Fitzwilly's was an apartment call The Alamo and 711 next door was the Thirsty Turtle. Remember Sparky's or DSP? Lakeview and Cow Hop were legendary and Martin's still is.

Graham Central Station, Hall of Fame, and zyphers bring back memories. Then there was the Pizza Planet, Michael's baked potatoes delivery, and Archies 33 cent burgers...all mid to late 80s vintage.

Flying Tomato was where Fitzwillys is today (at least I assume Fitzwillys is still there)

It was a good pizza place. First one I was aware of was in Denton (my hometown), next to UNT. I was thrilled when they built one on Northgate in the mid-80s. I don't think it stayed open in CS more than 2 or 3 years.


Weep not Dentonite, for the people who took over the Flying Tomato's building to open Fitzwilly's are the same people who own Lucky Lou's, RipRocks, and Cool Beans.

The old wings location used to be a Sambo's. And dont't forget about Rockyanos pizza next door with their 2.99 buffet.

Oh yeah! Flying Tomato rocked. Remember Sneaky Pete, aka Dr. Pete Ruzo?

King of the Roadhous had a good run too. $2 pitchers of "mystery beer" were awesome!

Is Ptarmigan still around?

Whatever happened to Shadow Canyon and Hole in the Wall? As a former alumni (albeit a poor one) I have a certain place in my heart for those two.

God I miss Cow Hop. I was able to call up the lady who runs AggieLandmarks who makes all the wooden replicas of buildings and get the Cow Hop special ordered. Sitting right next to my wooden Freebirds!

Used to work at Tom's. I ended up quitting the day before it went out of business forever. Man I miss that food!

The best part about NY subs was the fact that you could get your $2 chugger there, then take it to whatever bar you wanted(I think at the time chicken chuggers were maybe $3.75) back when you could drink on the back porch.

When did the Cowhop die and what replaced it. That place was awesome.

How about Pop's barbeque? Rosewood Junction?

What the hell are you old farts talking about? The current Northgate bar/restaurant lineup has been there forever and always will be.
