Well I'm welcome to you enlightening me. For my definition, mediocre to below average food that is about $4-$5 too high for what it is, coupled with the wonderful "atmosphere" of Kincade Lake
and a dickhole owner like Jimbo absolutely qualifies as hot garbage. Have you eaten at Janohn's, Alx? I don't get back that way much if at all, but I was curious about it.

It's a pretty place. Do you really not like wooden structures on clear impoundments with a bar and dock for boats?

I like Jimbo. I can understand if someone else does not.

Yes, and would love to go back. My wife had a bad experience with her wine order, and that's probably why we did not go back. Overpriced a bit, but given the selection here, I did not mind. Anything to not give Fred business is fine by me.

LOL
Jimbo is my cousin...I felt compelled to pimp his place.
But I agree. Tunks is just your average fried seafood place.

is this the place in Boyce? I have heard some friends rave about it. It just seems so odd to have good food in Boyce.

BTW, some of their non-fried stuff is really good. Possibly the best meal I've ever had came from their specials board.

Tunks is what it is, if you take Alexandria (that's considered Boyce I think) too seriously you're just fricking up. You're not going to get a fresh Provencal dinner, but if they served that no one would show up. They give people what they want.

If any of you want to go, call first. Not a place I'd show up cold.

It's Kincade. It's nothing special. I grew up spending a couple weekends a month during summer there. I guess I'm just desensitized.

That's fair. He's been a huge jerk to my family a few times in situations where it wasn't warranted; if we're calling a spade a spade, that's probably where a healthy dose of my vitriol comes from.

Good to hear. I'll echo what Salmon said, it does seem a little random to be in Boyce of all places, but if it's good I won't question it.

I lived out there for a long-arse time and I think it's beautiful. My friend has a place in the cove across from Tunks, fortunately you can't see it from his place, and it's absolutely spectacular for Alexandria.

I used to ride my 3-wheeler, dating myself, on the road that connects Tunks to Kisatchie Lane and those folks in trailers would have their doors open...holy shite. If I would have broken down I would have abandoned my shite for sure.
That point out in front of Tunks was a great camp site. The levee right there was accessible from a trail through the woods and that was a hoot. Go frick around on the spillway...

Yeah, I used to walk my dog out there. I've ridden styrofoam down the spillway

I really don't know what meth smells like. The appearance of these places is scary though. People filled with tatoos and scars. Some from prison-others from bars. men covered with grease from head to feet. Drinking pearl from a can and tobacca from a mail pouch sack. Houses full of chickens and yards full of hogs. That kind of thing.

I want to like Bellino's, I really do, but everytime I've been it's just been medicore to bad
The last 2 times the sauce to pasta ratio was just absurd. My noodles were floating there was so much sauce.
