Jim: Caesar salad, Parkside fish and chips, French fries, cole slaw, iced tea
Ramona: Kickin' Chicken (chicken breast, lightly breaded and deep fried, topped with creamy cravy), white cheddar mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli, cole slaw, iced tea
It's not the restaurant I was looking for but it turned out fine. Jim says his fish and chips were the best he's ever had. They use grouper and serve it with a homemade remoulade sauce. He wasn't too crazy about the sauce, but everything else was excellent. I had a few bites of the Caesar salad and it was terrific. I also had a taste of his cole slaw and asked the waitress to bring me a side order of that. My chicken was kickin' and I loved the white cheddar mashed potatoes. This was a great dinner to see us on for another seventeen hours of driving!

Dinner -- 6/3/08
Calhoun's Restaurant

Ramona: 1/2 slab ribs, cole slaw, beans, Long Island tea
Jim: Fried catfish, cole slaw, Tennessee corn pudding, iced tea
One of our favorite places in Knoxville, and visiting the grandchildren makes this an added treat.
Langston was a great waiter -- he always kept my iced tea glass full.
Their ribs are terrific, among the best anywhere. The catfish was tasty and three good sized pieces were more than filling.

Ramona: "little" cheeseburger with mushrooms, onions, and ketchup, diet Coke
Jim: Cheeseburger, mushrooms, ketchup, iced tea
Shared: large french fries
These were far and away the best hamburgers we have ever had, and there are a few great hamburgers in Waco -- Captain Billy Whizbangs, J&R Burgers, Kitoks, and (in a pinch) Whataburger. The fries were spectacular.
The manager told us that 18 locations would soon open in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex, so that is good news.
