  1. Amalia's. She had 4 locations at one time; one near the Highway 6/Longenbaugh place someone else mentioned... The last one was very close to where I live now; Grant and Louetta. Unfortunately, it's long closed, and "replaced" by a place I'll never go into.
  2. A couple of those look very familiar. From way back when I lived a lot closer to the area...
  3. Looked good to me. It certainly could have been Fingers. And the fire was closer to Fingers than to you.
  4. I think analog clocks predate Infiniti.
  5. Brenner's and Molina's still exist, at those same locations.
  6. I've driven by many times too, and wondered. I knew some of that was owned by the church, but didn't look any more. I really don't remember seeing them in the 60s or 70s; they weren't on the usual route to/from Palm Center.
  7. It was acouple of blocks north of Holcombe, in a strip center. But I think it was Brown Books... It was across from, or diagonally across from, what was a medical professional building and is now a Baylor faculty building; parking garage on the bottom with multi colored panels... I think the Baylor Clinics building is where the strip center was.
  8. It isn't "soggy toppings" but wet toppings making the whole thing soggy.
  9. Soggy from the veggies that should have been cooked before going onto the pizza.
  10. Didn't Spec's absorb Bert Wheeler's? I know it was bought by a company in San Antonio in the 90s. They don't seem to exist in Houston any more.
  11. I'd certainly agree with Star being overrated. I may have to try Gozzetti's... Grimaldi's in The Woodlands is pretty good, but not worth the wait when they're busy.
  12. It is, but they serve it with BROWN gravy unless you tell them otherwise. Last time (and it was the last time, never again), I was shocked that the BROWN gravy wasn't mentioned anywhere on the menu. What sort of heathen infidels server BROWN gravy with a chicken fried steak?
  13. I think her hair was too big to fit in the hat...
  14. I remember Mexico Lindo... I don't really remember the facade. Maybe brick...
  15. Oddly enough, the same people own 4718 Hallmark Drive: http://hcad.org/records/details.asp?crypt=%94%9A%B0%94%BFg%85%8F%80%7Bmm%8El%88tXtYW%9E%99%A2%D3%89%95%C2e%7CU%8A%80%86%C0%AB%A8%AD%86%5E&bld=1&tab= Which is a retirement home. And is the building behind 4824 San Felipe.
  16. I said Mamacitas, and he hasn't contradicted that, so I'm right.
  17. I think it's 4824, not 2824... HCAD says Brazos Presbyterian Homes owns it. High rise old folks home going in, maybe?
