Taco bandido. Up vote



Yes, used to ride the bikes there from my old stomping grounds near Lexington school during the Summer time when I was a kid in the 80's. So have another upvote for bringing this up. Also, the Ouachita River if you had a boat.

Open Face Burger and Gravy with Hash Browns at the Tower Grill.

Remember when Sal's first bar was at the Town & Country apartments before he opened Sal's Saloon?

Specialty Sound.

Benjy's Hair salon.

Used to party with the bartenders there. Had some pretty good hookups which was awesome on a college budget.

Loved Taco Bandido. Worked there for 1 year while I was in HS.

Johnny's Pizza!!! No matter where I go, there is no pizza joint that compares. Best pizza in the world!

We got lucky that one opened up right by my house in Houston. It was awesome and can't believe that I didn't blow up to the size of a whale but sadly, Houston-ites didn't have the taste buds for it and it closed. However, I kinda like it better now cause when I go home, it gives me a reason to go there.

Not for the ones of us that attended NLU during the golden era of the program. Check out the late 70's-80's baw. 9-6 record in the last 15 games played. Indians won a 1AA Natty back then too.
