Story

I wish I was there to see all the rats and roaches scatter.

I have not eaten there in 20 years, but in high school I would hit that up often.

I used to eat there after every parade, in my younger years, when I hung out on Severn. Fried rice and 2 eggrolls is great when you're drunk.

Between Egg Roll House and the car king statue on Clearview, Metry is a shell of it's former self.

That Bud’s Broiler on Vets by Roosevelt is sadly now gone too

The landmark I miss the most was the rotating cow on the I-10 service road by Clearview Mall

Luther's
Catfish Shack
Panchos
Pizza Inn
Paradise Lanes
Toys R Us
Lakeside Theater (the one across Vets from the Mall)
Service Merchandise
Put Putt
Is Fun Arcade still around?
Clowns Snoballs
Manuels Hot Tamales on the side of Vets on a cold night
Time Savers with free Icee coupons on Halloween
News On Wheels babes

Most of the stuff I liked in Metry is long gone.

Metairie started going downhill when Henry Cisneros was housing secretary.

Obviously you do not know how the Chinese make "chicken" on a stick

What you see in the restaurant



What you would see before butchered

Equator is taking over the spot. Expanding the restaurant and parking options. Looking forward to that. Love some Equator.
