Carb loading on Chicken-Fried Steak & Fries .... Where else
but Texas?

The July issue of Texas Highways magazine has an 8-page spread
on the Chicken-Fried Steak. It includes such eateries as the
Broken Spoke in Austin, the Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo
and Clark's Outpost in Tioga. Also Rudy Lechner's Restaurant
in Houston which "serves an Austrian version of CFS that eschews
cream gravy in favor of cheese sauce."

One of the restaurant owners says that some out-of-state customers
aren't familiar with CFS -- "A few ask for it medium-rare, and
we have to explain that it just doesn't work that way."

Man calls waitress over to his table.
"What's this fly doing in my soup?"
"Looks like the backstroke to me!"

No one was allowed to wait tables at Howard Johnson's (where I worked) until they had mastered all of the possible responses to insect questions.

Out here they'd charge extra for the Klingon crouton.
