This weeks list
it's time for another list. This list was born of a conversation I had with Shane Southern, President of Southern Communications Corporation. He was talking fondly about a place that he remembered called The Spaghetti House. I've only been here since November, 1996...so I don't remember the Spaghetti House. But there is a restaurant that I remember since I've been here that is no longer here...and that restaurant will begin our list:
1) El Caporal (used to be at the Pagoda House Motel)
2) Burger Boy
3) Golden Corral in Oak Hill
4) Skyline Drive In in Hilltop (which we just heard today has re-opened)
5) Robin's in Beaver
6) Ponderosa
7) Dairy Dip in Oak Hill (Lola's list starter)
8) Smorgasbord in Beckley (used to be next to United Cycle)
9) Taco Bell in Oak Hill
10) Burgerland
We mentioned this list one time and the phones lit up!!! People love this stuff!!! Can you smell the memories? Join us tomorrow morning and get ready to call in with your additions to the list and check back here tomorrow for more on the list.
