In Navarre, for sandwiches, try All American Heros. It's just to the West of TC's Front Porch. It's in the strip mall next to Pak N Fax, right on 98. I like the wild turkey and the Bon mi.
Johnny Houston's has a good burger. The buns are really good.
I haven't eaten at it yet, but friends say Shark Bites right at the intersection of 98 and Whispering a pines is really good for breakfast. It's on the South side of the road.

Tried a new place today that just opened up 2 weeks ago. Voodoo BBQ & Grille in the Target shopping center on 9 Mile at University. It's a chain out of NOLA.
Menu kind of leans more towards BBQ but I ordered a bowl of Red beans and rice with cornbread and collards. Wife got Jambalaya and a shrimp poboy. We're both extremely impressed wit the taste, quality and quantity of food.
That whole strip mall is now restaurants. The place got busy with the church crowd rolling in but the owner took the time to stop at tables and ask opinions. He noticed there was no BBQ items on our table and that lead to a discussion about the menu. I told him that wife and I try to eat somewhere on 9 Mile every weekend as we do our shopping then and frankly there just doesn't seem to be much variety. What I mean by that is that you can get BBQ all over the place. He agreed and mentioned that he had noticed since opening that the locals go for what we ordered over the chicken and brisket.
For a chain I give this place a 9/10. Nice change from burgers, chicken and Mexican. Give it a try.
Oh, and they serve beer.

I'll have to check out the place. I'm from South Louisiana but left 22 years ago. It's nice to get some good Cajun food at a local place.
Btw Sean, I stumbled out of Johnny Huston's last night. Thanks again for the post. I love that place.

Glad you liked it medic. I've eaten there twice since I posted about the first visit. Wish I could.get over that way more often.
That brings up a problem. I love to have a beer with certain foods but I am just so paranoid about getting a DUI. I'm a big guy but I can feel one beer and two is just about too much for me to.drive. It would be fun to meet out and throw a few down but momma won't play the DD part. I know you live close enough to Huston's to walk home. I just don't have anywhere close.

Start training Sean, have a few beers at lunch, few at dinner and hop in the riding mower....before long you'll have built up your tolerance
The less fun alternative is have a beer or two then wait an hour or so to drive.

Thanks for the encouragement Clay. I know with your support and that of my fellow members I can someday aspire to being all I can be .........an obnoxious, sloshed restaurant patron.:smile:

Not new but feel the need to share my opinion for some reason.
Went to Ryan's today for lunch. Only been there once before a couple of years ago. I now remember why. Nothing specific but it just sucked. All the veggies tasted like they were out of an outdated can. I don't care much for buffets anyway but the food there is plain.
