Great pics....I remember going shopping downtown back in the late 40's, and into the 50's...great memories...
I have enjoyed this thread for sure. I worked at Shoppers World back in the early '60's. I was a butcher in the grocery store.
Shopper's World was a type of forerunner to the Wal-Mart...
I remember when that site used to be a small plane airport.
Grand Cru at Britton and N May, is the same as The Cellar. They just had to change the name.....something to do with the Oklahoma Liquor laws.
They do carry a very large selection of beer, and...
Don't consider myself a coffee snob yet...Although we do enjoy a good cup of coffee. We recently bought a coffee grinder and started buying whole beans and grinding them each time we make a pot. We...
Does anyone remember "Black Hawk" Park, in NE OKC?
hahaha...not in the 50's...stadium wasn't that big then.
I used to go swimming there in the 50's....as has been said, it was a public pool but not a municipal one. Good memories there.
Did you look at when that mesonet reading was taken? Wednesday morning after having a bit of rain two mornings this week. So, the soil moisture is up, but the plant material above ground is dry with...
Whatever......you sure have assumed a lot from my post. No need to explain my thoughts further, you wouldn't get it anyway.
It was a Mega Market ran by the Beachler's group...
Let's be honest here, the true Whole Foods shopper, isn't a Homeland shopper. They might shop at a Homeland today but only because it's handy,...
Your list hardly qualifies as "most of the best beers in the U,S." There are dozens, if not hundreds of breweries with better offerings than that list. And many of them do require refrigeration from...
I have always thought it my job to take care of me and my family. Not the Government.
I haven't looked at ALL twenty something pages here to see if these have been mentioned, but.......how about the basement at Katz's drugstore? The movie theaters downtown, like the Criterion....with...
Prime does have a higher fat content....but because of that higher fat content, the meat is juicier and more tender than the lower grades.
Wet aging does help. The meat is usually held at least 4...
Not hardly!
My wife and I eat at the N Penn location about every other week. About 5 years ago I ordered the Carnitas De Puerco, my wife took a bite of it and ever since that is all we ever order.
We both...
Steve, very good work. I do remember much of the goings on back then. I graduated from Midwest City High School in '61....He gave a talk at the High School during my senior year. Used to subscribe to...
Feel what you want... My thoughts are based on real experiences.....some a very long time ago....and some within the past year....to each his own...
DITTO!!! No matter what jmarkross says.
Qdoba has received some of my money one time. Won't be a second time. What slop disguised as "Mexican Food".
Wasn't there a "Cock O' The Walk" downtown, back in the day? I seem to remember a bar with that name down around Robinson and California.....I'm talking in the 50's and early 60's.
I've had pizza from there one time. Lousy experience.
Called in the order ahead of time. Arrived and told them I was there to pick up my pie. Two teenagers working the kitchen, mumbled around to...
