I lived in DesMoines untill 75 , I used to live on East Hull Ave. 2661, fith house, as I remember it, East of the water tower on the hill. I used to have a parts account w/discount at Ankeny Ford
You'll probably guess that I'm guessing at some of the spellings But
I remember Russ & Abbys LaPizza House SE 14th St, good pizza, great onoin rings. A large oval plate piled high, heaped, with the most perfect onion rings. That was the bribe to get me to go to Lamaze classes.
There used to be a bar-restruant on 2nd Ave and University Ave North West corner, Qupies, fantastic Hot Sausage sandwhch. When I was first married my wife usually new that I had one before the door ever opened.
Last time back, I went out on Douglas just West of Beaver Rd. There was a tenderloin joint on the South side of Douglas, Wednesday night car show. That is where I set my mind on the Cobra thing.
On Euclid Ave, a few doors West of SE 14TH St. North side of Eculid Ave, Hellen & Pats Restraunt, Cavitelly, a Baked pasta casaroll. The name has changed and last I was there they had another restauant on Merrl Hay South of Douglas Ave. They used to do a hell of a bussiness from Firestone shift changes.
Mama Laconas had the best Lasagna.
My brother met a cook in Las Vegas at Max Betts Fun Hog Ranch on Twane , who made Fried Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwhich the way she remebered it back at Millies on University Ave near the river. They kept changing things, like cooks, and so on untill my brother just gave up going there. The small restruant -casino was all done up in Iowa college sports pennants and schedules.
The Bravarian House on North East 14th , North of the freeway, used to have the best Ruebin Sandwhiches, That was my lunch splurge at work when I was supposed to be on a diet.
There is no going back in time. Too Bad.
