Willie's Duck Diner

The wifey and me are off to Alabama to fellowship with some of God's country and with some local rednecks. In traveling to Alabama, I noticed we would be in West Monroe, La at lunch time. Willie's Duck Diner is run by Willie Robertson of Duck Dynasty and Duck Commander. This is some good redneck folk rat here. These guys hunt, fish, rassle alligators, go muddin and tell TV executives that if they can't pray on TV they won't be on TV. Just doesn't get any better than these folks. This morning l put on my Duck Commander T-Shirt (dress shirt) and hat in anticipation of lunch.  We did the Duck waddle all the way to Louisiana.

This sure is a fine upstanding cafe to be run by such highly regarded rednecks. When we were seated we were treated with a large bowl of pork rines. I am not a real big fan of pork rines, but they are related to pig (bacon) and I guess Willie likes em so I had to eat a few. We ordered chicken fried steak, cheesy potatoes, salad and corn bread. The chicken fried steak tells us just how good rednecks this here batch is. Some pretty good ones in my book. The CFS was breaded heavily and the meat was tender and tasty just like I likem. The cheesy taters were a good mix of taters and cheese. Can't go wrong here. The cornbread was different, but tasty. The salad was one trip to the salad bar. The wifey made the salad bar run. When she came back she had piles of ranch dressing, lots of bacon (shes too good to me), and a hint of green stuff. A great salad.

All in all if you are in West Monroe at bean time, slide in here and support these fine God loving folks.

Latham Bakery - Downtown Forney

The wifey and me had some very important bidness to tend to in Terrell. We had a grandson that was in dire need of being spoiled. So we are off to Terrell. Our trip was around lunch time. This is a Monday and Doe Belly's and 4T BBQ are both closed in Forney. I searched Tripadvisor and the highest ranking restaurant in Terrell is Buccee's. 2nd is Hamms Orchard which is only open a few months each year. Eating in Terrell is not something you look forward to. We have a friend that had sung the praises of Latham Bakery. So this seemed like the right time to get over going there. I knew it was a foo foo place from the beginning. You might as well say it is a La Madeleine of Forney!!

When we arrived the employees game me the stinky face. They knew a redneck was infiltrating them and they weren't sure they should let me in. Fortunately my money is still green (the ink might be wet, but it is green), so they let me and the wifey in. The wifey is one of them.

The menu is foo foo food that women go berzerk over. For a redneck, not so much. They have no chili, jalapenos, tobasco sauce, cayeene pepper, etc. What are they thinking. After reviewing the fresh bakery products and the menu I decided to go for a sausage and peppers in a fresh baked roll and an M & M brownie.

When the cashier rung up our meal I saw that my choice was a Quiche. REDNECKS DON'T EAT QUICHE. The wifey understood my dilemma and offered to trade even up (that means I am going to pay for it later). She had ordered a ham and cheese roll. At least this thing had lots of cheddar type cheese. Rednecks like cheese.

The ham was your basic ham pretty good, but nothing outstanding. A little Cayenne pepper would go along way. Of course there was plenty of cheese and a homemade roll, which was pretty good. So overall this wasn't a bad choice.

As I mentioned earlier I also ordered an M & M Brownie. When you go to a joint that has bakery in it's name, you eat some light meal to get to dessert. So the Brownie was the main thing here. Rednecks love their sweets. I just can't believe it. The brownie was decent, but CiCi's makes a better tasting and richer tasting brownie and I can get all the pizza I can eat with it. I was expecting a much better brownie from a bakery. Ok guys get with it. Stop counting calories and load them babies up with all the rich ingredients, lard, fat, sugar, chocolate, sugar, chocolate, etc.

All my girlfriends on the blog need to go to Latham Bakery and grab some grub. All my redneck buddies need to go to Forney Wednesday to Sunday and get some Doe Belly's or 4T BBQ.
