Speaking of long gone arcades, Cafe Beignet on Johnston where that Tux shop is now.

And you have to have been born at exactly the right time for:

The Doobie Tree vs. The D.

Remember Booties? What about Toucans? I remember the story about Toucans. It was apparently owned by a guy who had a reputation for starting businesses, getting into financial trouble, then burning them down for the insurance money. The joke was, how much gas does it take to burn down a restaurant on the corner of Doucet and Johnston? Two Cans


Bobby Silas, and yes he did.

That is the new one. When I was in Jr. High the Alladin's Castle was in the middle. They had a great juke box in there. Rob Base was on repeat when I was in the house.

Except for the hot girls that work there these are two completly different places.

But if we're just judging the girls i'm goin with T-conn's just because they seem classy and more down home.
