Pre BACFest "Throwed Rolls!" (KSIK)

[drwhite]

Flying to BACFest from the east? Stop in at Sikeston, MO (KSIK) at 12:30 on Thursday, Sept 22 and join us for some "throwed rolls!" We will commandeer the van from Lambert's Restaurant and they will take us in the back door so we don't have to wait in line. Prepare yourself for some good home cooking served "family-style" and if you want one of their delicious homemade rolls, just raise your hand and they'll throw you one from across the room! This will be a Mid-Atlantic Region event so if you don't have one, I'll have Mid-Atlantic "Beech-Nut" T-Shirts to give away as long as supplies last! Who's In? Persinger and I will be hosting!

Wow! That is an awesome idea Alan! There is a Lambert's in Ozark, Missouri too, which is just up the road from Branson by about 30 minute drive... There used to be an Ozark airport that was just across the highway from the restaurant but that got shutdown about 9 years ago.... Enjoy Sikeston!

Excellent idea Alan! I had been contemplating making that as a stop along the way. Depending on weather, there's a chance I may arrive in Branson on Wednesday, but if I stick with my original plan, I may see you Thursday in Sikeston.

I'll fly unless I can hitch a ride myself!

 

[paulwerbin]

I might join and have passenger room.

 

[drwhite]

I'm gonna need more shirts!

 

[Steve59]

Do you have gigantor size in those shirts?

Did you ever notice that every time Brad Mitchell puts a post on this site it always involves food or beverage?

 

[paulwerbin]

Did you ever notice how observant Tom Corcoran is?

It's too bad he's so shy about sharing his observations!

Friends, Flying and Food...........my favorite F words. TC, maybe you recall this photo from Dayton in 2005. I think you, Cloyd, Oz and I toasted the first half-national BAC event!

Bob you can always with me! You and Rick Koch are my favorite copilots.

As a reminder, in the past Lambert's has not accepted credit cards. Not sure if that policy has changed, but bring cash to be safe! Most meals are in the $10-$15 range.

 

[Steve59]

I think I will try and make it down to lamberts on my way to Branson. It is not very far out of the way.

Lambert's DOES NOT ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS. Cash or Check ONLY!!!!! Lambert's is also all-you-can-eat. If you order the rib-eye steak and you finish it, you may request a second rib-eye, however absolutely no "doggie bags" allowed... Don't be wasteful or a piggy...LOL... They have pass-arounds that will fill you up along with dinner. Pass-arounds are food items like fried potatoes, okra, and many other similar things. As mentioned, they will throw rolls at you when you ask for one.
