compares to Crechale's


OK nothing compares to Crechale's.

The fact that you even know Crechale's is impressive and wins you points in my book. Next thing you will tell me is that you shot pool at the old Cherokee Inn.

I bet you never shot at Tall Man's beside the old Skyview Drive In theatre. Or had a burger and a Pabst from the Shady Rest, under the old overhead bridge where Clinton Blvd changed to West Capitol Street.

Ever had a steak finger basket from Hickory House down from the Old Lady's Home?

Well, other than making a point to sit in Willie Morris' booth on my recent visits to Crechale's in order to properly listen to that old juke box, my original / formative Jackson experience was a half-generation removed from its glory days.

CS's -- ("Cross the Street" from Millsaps) -- was an exotic trip for an underaged kid like me. As was sneakin' beers up at Lost Rabbit on the Reservoir. I think they got me into the Cherokee on State St. one time too.

Best memory was Dad taking me with him to the classic downtown lunch spots to meet the old politicians. Primo's, the Elite, and... ????

But let's come back to Kumback. What's in yours?
