Professor, did you know we’re getting a Gus’s chicken on Lovell rd?

Did you not like the truck stop Popeye’s at Watt Road? That was our go to location for a Mardi Gras meal. Thankfully everyone kept their clothes on.

Gus’s is pretty good, although I’m not a huge fan of spicy food. That was exacerbated when we took the kids there when they were young and I had to dig out pieces of meat with no sauce for them and only got the spicy outside myself.
