  1. Y'all are sure making me homesick. Alpha, I grew up the next street over from you on Swarthmore. Mom used to shop at JMH (Milton) and Weingartens as well. I remember her telling me about the little park where JMH used to be, but have never seen it. Need to make it back down there someday. Great memories - thank you.
  2. Yes! The French bread was one of the main reason for our visits there. For years, it was a tradition for my mom, sometimes my sister, aunt and grandmother and I to visit Galveston. This was long before The Strand ever came about. Usually, we would poke around the stores and such downtown, have lunch at Fishermans Wharf (fantastic seafood poboys) and always a trip to G&G Bakery to buy up a bunch of their wonderful French Bread to bring home. Those were the days!
  3. I believe it was located at the corner of Avenue L and 13th? in Galveston. Years ago, I believe it closed down but did eventually reopen. The last time I was in Galveston it had closed again. Anyone remember this wonderful old bakery?
  4. Used to love that place - pizza to die for :-)
  5. It's been years since I've had a Keller burger, but have to agree with you. The BEST burgers and the COLDEST beer around!
  6. Thank you! I've been trying for a very long time to think of Udder Delight's name and here it is. Scrumptious ice cream, but never had anything as 'exotic' as avocado - yikes
  7. Thanks subdude - I'm fairly new here, just started posting a couple of day ago. Hope your weekend is nice!
  8. Haven't seen anyone mention this old landmark on South Main, was it? Right in the heart of the Medical Center, directly across the street from the Methodist Hospital. Dine-in or drive-thru. Also, how about the old McDonald's Drive-In? I believe they had to change their name to TOPPS? when the current McD's came to town, but could be wrong about that. Anyone remember these places?
  9. I had forgotten all about Price's Hamburgers. Great little burgers, loved the secret sauce. The one I'm thinking about was on Bellaire Blvd. and eventually Jack in the Box moved in there. Are all the Cellar Door restaurants gone now? They had the BEST bbq ever.
  10. I worked at the Allbrittons on Bellaire Blvd. as a teenager for a whopping $1.07 a hour! Yes, every customer was greeted with "May I serve you"? What I loved best was their chocolate pie and twice-baked potatoes - yummy!
