Grandy's - Mesquite

 As usual at lunch and dinner every day me and the wifey do the food dance. What do you want to eat? What do you want to eat? We went there two days ago. etc. etc. etc. As the wifey started the dance tonight she asked what I wanted, so I threw out Spring Creek BBQ or Jason's Deli. I might as well said the Ritz in Manhattan. So she volleys with Grandy's. Really we haven't eaten there in probably 25 years. What I remember was greasy food and a pretty good cinnamon roll. The wifey entered into dirty pool by reminding me several times how good the cinnamon roll is there. That is just not fair. So against my better judgement but my desire for a cinnamon roll, I gave in. So we did the lard grease shuffle to Grandy's.

As it turns out the wifey was wanting greasy fried chicken. Check it off her list as that is what she got.

I ordered the chicken fried steak, mashed taters and baked beans. It comes with a roll. I did top it off with a cinnamon roll. The chicken fried steak crust was actually pretty good. As for the steak it turns out it is meat substitute kind of stuff. You need a really lot of pepper, salt and Tobasco sauce to get any kind of taste out of this stuff. The mashed taters were a cheap instant tater mix with nothing added to them to give them any flavor. The baked beans were probably the second best part of this meal. The roll was cold and just didn't taste very good. If it was hot, it might be good, but I won't ever know. The cinnamon roll was pretty good but not as good as I remember and not good enough to override the other stuff. 

Thank goodness I keep a good supply of antacid.

Towards the end of the meal the wifey said she had learned her lesson and it would be more than 20 years before she comes back. Yes.
