Ask Behr anything about anything not related to food

There’s a new place opened here named the grille. They have a big ass menu with about twenty or thirty items on it. Everything is grilled thus the name. I have been three times and ordered three different things and they were all good.

Where is it?

On Lamar? If so, that is very close to where I grew up.

The fact that is my old hood is proof I am not uppity.
My mom grew up on Tanglewood, two blocks off Lamar.

Do you remover the Katz drugstore on Lamar and Airways? We used to walk down there when I was a kid visiting in the summer.

I know that area, but that is not where I grew up. I was down by the airport.

Check out those shoes on Elvis!

So this store opened in 1954, the year I was born.

My three strongest memories of Mempho from when I was little and visiting, besides my grandmother’s neighborhood, were Katz, the Purina mills (I can still smell them), and the bridge over the Mississippi.

As I got older (high school and beyond), add in the UP Bank’s revolving restaurant, the Nineteenth Century Club (this was a thang), and Isaac Hayes living several blocks away from my mother’s neighborhood, which was really, really, really, really white, lol. (They are a bit more woke now, but not much.)

Thanks for posting this!

We lived in south Memphis in the sixties and went to the Katz store in the Southgate shopping center all the time. My dad bought my baby sister a hamster there because she wanted one. It bit her finger a couple of days later and she didn’t want it any more and I inherited it.

My brother and I and my sister's all had hamsters we built cages and had wheels and balls they ran around in and one had babies I remember catching the hamster eating her babies. It terified me!
