Dang, I wish I could make this, but I gotta put my cage in the shop in the morning, and I'll be without transportation during the day. Besides, the last time I went to Jack's it took two hours.

I concur with Pinocchio, their service is lacking.  if they are done with my wife's bike at AMS I'll show up but not to eat or I'll starve.

If George can bring the tire, myself, Duke, and a red SS with no mufflers may be in attendance... [moto] [bacon] [beer]
(eMail sent to Geo., please call and let me know if you can... <--"you have mail")

Else, I'll be in my driveway, banging, clanging and arcing my way to a new set of mufflers.  [bang]

Since there is concern about service and kickstands there is Smoke just a block away. Sound good? It's at The Belmont Hotel.

i went to jack's the first time last saturday night to have a beer and some food with bryna and bryant... and bryna and i were pretty disappointed.  i'm hoping to just chalk it up to someone having a bad night there or something, but long story short it was some pretty sketchy service by the girl that was waiting on us.  definitely didn't leave feeling like a valued customer.  next time we'll just go to hunky's or lee harvey's for a burger.

There is a Shell station at 35E and Valley View
on the west side of 35. I'll try to text ya in a bit
Lisa.
The Smoke was really good for breakfast and good
service too. We can park out front. I vote Smoke.

Cycle parking (all concrete) in front of Smoke. Google The Belmont Hotel if you don't know where it is. If you know how to get to Jacks you're about a block away from Sylvan and Ft. Worth, Ave intersection. The Belmont is right on the corner of that intersection and Smoke is just beside the entrance to The Belmont. I'll call and make a reservation for about 60 ok?  [drink]  [laugh]

smoking.  [thumbsup]

Since it's an hour before lunchtime Smoke it is. If anyone is looking at this thread and have the phone numbers of those who have posted or can contact them please let them know that we're at Smoke. Then that's it. Smoke @ 12 or so. If you show up and didn't check the thread beforehand and we're not where you are then go to Smoke Restaurant @ The Belmont Hotel. See youse guys there.  [thumbsup]

 [beer] Good call on Smoke - very good food and sweet server ! 

Photos to prove it happened:

Funniest quote of the day.  So we run into The Svoloch at AMS and tell him we went to lunch at Smoke and he says like " meh - they probably put meat in the coffee there! "

Muskrat says, " So... still a vegan ? "

To which The Svoloch replies " So.... still a DICK ? "

We fell about the place laughing and making a scene !  Good times !  [laugh]

You asshole!  [evil] you didn't finish my part.

Post by: Cher on April 10, 2010, 06:38:39 AM

Yeah, it was a good one  [thumbsup]  But we'll be back there again soon.  Especially since Dax volunteered to pick up the tab next time.  For everyone - not just his liberal friends.

[cheeky]

Seriously though on the smoking:  Alan was able to quit by using over-the-counter nicotine patches from Walgreens.  Three different doasge levels decrease in steps over several weeks.  He's tried quitting several times over the years but this stuff made all the difference in the world.   

Hang in there man!  Go ahead and knock off Cyclone if it'll make you feel any better   [evil]
Title: Re: What's up Friday 4-9-2010?
Post by: fastwin on April 10, 2010, 06:49:19 AM
Lisa,

Alan quit??? I didn't know that! Good for him. Bet that makes you happy and proud. My ex-wife smoked but our deal was she couldn't smoke in the house. That deal was often broken and I couldn't get her to stop smoking in her car. We had a nice 5 series BMW that I couldn't stand to drive or ride in because it smelled like a f#@king ashtray! [bang] I like the occasional cigar but I personally draw the line at ever smoking in the house. Jennifer would flatten my head with a frying pan if I even tried. Like motorcycle riding, cigar smoking is an outdoor sport. ;D

Anyway, tell Alan congrats! I hope he sticks to it. My ex said quiting smoking was easy. She did it a hundred times! >:(

hmmmm.  Seems I didn't get the memo... I had a lovely lunch sitting outside in the sunshine at Jack's on Friday... alone... waiting for all my friends to arrive....   ???

But I agree - soft gravel parking isn't bike-friendly, service is mis-named... but the food, if you can actually get some, is pretty darned good.
Title: Re: What's up Friday 4-9-2010?
Post by: Cher on April 11, 2010, 01:16:09 PM

Aw man, are you kidding?!  I think Belmont has filled in nicely for JBYLG.  They have plenty of parking (with paving!); a patio; their own special BBQ with their own special BBQ sauce and their own special employees - called Servers - who come and very politely ask how we would like to spend our money today.  Fabulous concept.  I'll make sure you get the memo next time.

So sorry George, I didn't have your phone number. That is taking for granted you carry a phone on you whilst riding. PM me with your number and I'll not let that happen again.  [thumbsup]
