On a whim I bought a turntable about five years ago and it has turned me into a bit of a vinyl convert. My LP collection is now bigger than my CD collection. I look for vinyl first, then digital. A fair number of new bands are releasing their stuff on vinyl, which is cool.
Texas Roadhouse? That’s the place we have been to that sounds like the one you went to.
Texas Roadhouse and Santa Fe Cattle Co. are both goober-shucking friendly restaurants with great steaks.
You didn’t use a CC to pay for it?
Logan’s Roadhouse in Myrtle Beach SC. Great steaks and you can toss the peanut shells on the floor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1S8Lcm3Hdc
I waited tables at a place where we did a corny ritual for birthdays. Always thought it was kind of dumb, as did the other servers.
We have a Sagebrush here in Gaffney, SC. Used to be a good place for a steak, but since the fire a few years ago, not so much.
Dirty Nellies’ in San Antonio.
Like a lot of those Steak Houses they go great for awhile but over time slack off....then close. Sad.
In Southern California, the place is called The Northwood’s Inn. I loved making a mess on the floor.
I failed to mention, there’s a Sagebrush across the state line in Shelby, NC, which is pretty good. I wish for the old days when Quincey’s had the best sirloin tips ever. I think Quincey’s has gone the way of the Edsel, but I could be wrong. Just haven’t heard of them in years.
Chris & Pitt’s is a barbecue joint on Washington and Broadway in Whittier, Calif. that has been there since at least the 1950’s. I haven’t been there in some years, but their floor was always covered with peanut shells.
In the Los Angeles area it is Northwoods Inn.
There is or was one in Brevard, NC a couple of years ago, but haven’t been out there in a long time.
Shelby, NC ...I go through there to Charlotte on occasion. I’ll check out the one there one day.
There’s one huge reason why vinyl sounds better and it’s oddly not the vinyl. Records tend to not have normalization and the allow for better highs and lows. When CDs hit it was en vogue to apply filters to make the music sound more even. The result was more popular music with the audiophiles losing out.
You must live in a really upscale area if your local Five Guys serve steak.
In SoCal try Clearman’s Northwoods Inn
Best cabbage slaw and cheese bread in the universe
Chicken and steaks great also
Logan’s Roadhouse.
When my youngest daughter was 3, she called it “Da place what have da peanuts.”
