College Inn for the HS girls. Just sayin'.

The Embers back when the drinking age was 18 was literally a HS hangout.

There's still a Big Cheese in Salina. It's an easy to go right off I-135 and it's as good as it used to be. Not saying it's worth the 2 1/2 hour round trip, but it's close to worth it.

I think there is still one in Wellington?

Place for fish and chips on south side my parents always taking me was The Yankee Clipper.

If you were a south sider, you ever eat at The Taco Chop on Meridian? Take out only place that was darn good!

Where was Taco Chop?

For us 'old' whippersnappers...

Google "famous Wichita restaurants from the 1920's; awesome photographs.


Ross's favorite... Continental Grill (1936)

That wasn’t open in the 80s was it?

Idk. I wasn’t born yet

Weird. Definitely not on Seneca unless they moved after I was out of highschool. Place was a hole. No tables at all. Walk in, order and leave. Double wide phone booth sized. But man the Mexican food was good. Cheap too.

I second Willie C's, Amarillo Grill, and Buck's BBQ

Godfather's Pizza, the pizza you can't refuse. Forgeddaboudit.

I miss that place in Hutch, as well as Sub-N-Stuff and The Hutch.

That’s a ‘pizza pie’ that would fend-off any potential hangover… some of the best pizza ever made. I normally don’t like thick crust pizza, but Godfather’s was an exception. Unfortunately, ole Ross and I had to wait 50 years for the Carney’s to bring it to ‘Merica’…

I think there is still one at 47th and Broadway. There is a sign anyway. South of the intersection, east side in the shopping center. Haven't been in there though.

Still Godfathers in and around Mobile Al.
