Grew up in Independence, ate there once a week since my stepdad didn't like to cook, or spend money. Those long waffle-cut fries smothered in malt vinegar until they got soggy were the bomb.

Is the airport version the same? Seems like I saw one in a mall but the fries weren't like I remembered.

Really? I haven't heard of them for decades. I've been to that airport a couple of times, too.

Anyone remember H Salt fish? I think there was one on Johnson Dr.

When I was a little kid my uncle lived in the Quail Creek apartments. I have no idea why I remember that.

That picture wants to make me puke

I wonder if they're still there? Raytown, right?

Is Dogpatch still there? We used to drive through that just for fun and to scare the crap out of ourselves.

To be fair, I don't think I've been there in about 40 years.

I wasn't driving. :D

Lumpy and I went there for the first time in years to get a takeout order just a few days ago.
She was really cute, she put on the kids pirate hat and rang the mast bell on the way out.
I think she was trying to score free crab cakes.

Their hush puppies are little doughy balls of awesome.

Malt vinegar on the fish with a little tarter sauce is pretty ****ing good.

I am obsessed with LJS I haven't had it since 2008 though. I would eat it as my final meal Fish/chicken planks, fries slaw and extra shrimp.

Last time i ate LJS was about 3 years ago. This guy in another department had it at work he said do you want some hush puppies. I ate a couple, just two.

Thirty minutes later i had to poop real bad, i always get that with them.

Sounds like a real obsession to me.

oh it is. My body releases some feel good chemicals when I think about it. It is true food porn for me.

If you haven't made either in 7 years then you don't "always". You "used to".

Iirc, hushpuppies are just fried balls of pilsbury biscuit dough.

Wrong... its cornmeal, fried indian bread with just the right seasonings.

Diet Coke is p grody imo

Don't have one up here.

dont forget the onion!

the taco bell of the sea

Now that you say that, yes of course. It's obvious that it's cornmeal.

Had a buddy in high school that worked at one and I could have sworn he told me they were made out of something that could basically be bought at a grocery store and fried. But thinking about it, he must have either been full of shit, or my memory is off.

False.

Mmmm... crab cakes.....

This is Claude. Claude is a 15-pound Monster Tasmanian Crab recently caught off the shores of Tasmania that was on his way to an industrial-size steamer before being bought by a British Aquarium for £3,000 (~$4,800). Claude's shell is 15-inches across and it's estimated he's large enough to make 160 crabcakes BUT WILL CONTINUE TO GROW until he's almost 30 pounds and another three inches wide.

Holy crap, that thing's bigger than the crabs in Skyrim.

I get to eat there every now and then, its still pretty damn good. Maybe a few times a year.

No, he's right. Corn meal is going to be in every major grocery store but I prefer hush puppy mix.

Here's a common brand:

She's holding it like that and it's not dead? **** that. Claude must be a very mellow crab.

Being that large, its speed is probably on par with Thomas Jones.... you wouldn't be in much danger.

Sure, maybe so. I used to go crabbing and I know what the little ****ers can do.

There are certain animals that I'm just not going to mess with. A bear. A honey badger. A crab. There are probably more.

Come to think of it, anything that is related to a wolverine...just leave it the hell alone.

I last ate there in about 1997 on the way home from a chiefs game. Needed to soak up some beer. Big mistake. Big

I've eaten there maybe once in the past 10 years. I decided to go because i had fond childhood memories of their Hush Puppies. They weren't nearly as good as i remembered them being.


It's interesting to note that most everyone in this thread only eats there once every few years. I'm going to guess the majority of people are like that.

I've fought mudcrabs tougher than you!!!

I like the coconut shrimp at Red Lobster. Wish I knew how to make that stuff...

I haven't eaten at LJS in years. I think the last time I ate there I was living the dorm life in college. We used to joke that we were "going to get a yellow meal" and everyone knew what we were talking about.

Never been, no desire to go.

Awesome.

I am an unabashed fan of LJS. I think I'll bike over to my nearest one for a #5 meal (2pc fish) with add-a-piece chicken plank and add-a-piece 3 shirmp.

Malt vinegar? Pro or anti?

How can you be against malt vinegar?

I can't believe those placesa re still in business.

I haven't seen a Long John Silver's in years.

The good thing about the Long Johns close to me is it has an AandW attached to it, so I can get some damn good Root Beer to go with it.

I'm vehemently against malt vinegar...

sec

You guys suck

That's the best part! :harumph:

I was thinking the same thing. Can there be enough people that would eat that shit to keep them in business?

Holy shit.. this thread has legs

Corpulent, wobbly legs oozing globules of transfats.

I used to dip my LJS fish fillets in ketchup when I was a kid....

Simply Red knows threads.

Bastard.

Heretic.

bout once a year .. usually in winter when my caught-fish run out .....

Exactly... why do they think the Brits ruled half the world for so long from a tiny island?

It had to be the fish & chips with malt vinegar, if you ask me.

What did malt vinegar ever do to you? Malt vinegar isn't for use on all things. It would be terrible on a sundae, for example. But it's a critical part of fish and chips. I daresay that it's not really fish and chips without the malt vinegar.

This thread inspired me to go yesterday, and the one on the way to work is partnered with a KFC, so I not only got a sampler but a chicken pot pie!

I won't be eating again anywhere for 4 more days, until I burn all those calories off. LMAO
