I managed a store in the mall for a couple of years, and probably had "2 Scotty Dogs with Chili" 4 days out of 5.

Did anyone like Tippy's restaurant that was on Old Wake Forest Rd. Sometimes I dream of their chips/salsa!

Never ate there. But it did remind me of some old favorites.

1. Before it was a Biscuitville, who can remember the restaurant there at the corner of Wake Forest Rd. and Hodges St.?

Hint: It was a chicken place.

2. On the other side of Crabtree Creek was a steak house. What was the name?

Originally the Biscuitville was a Red Barn restaurant I believe. I remember they had a Santa at Christmas time.

Yep. We lived in Northside Apartments across the street on Bernard St.. Sometimes we'd get dinner there and the chicken boxes would come with rolls and honey packets. Ah, the little things in life.....
