Long John Silver's
« on: December 16, 2014, 09:55:18 PM »
One time, about 15 years ago, I ate lunch at a Long John Silver's. I remember they had a bell by the door that you could ring if the service was good or something. Hushpuppies are great. I haven't been back since. Is Captain D's still a thing?

Thoughts?

That place is horribly awful.  I think Wichita is down to one by the old Kmart on 47th

LJS serves fruits of the sea, I haven't been in many years though

I used to order a side of the batter scraps along with my fish -was great- a real treat

I hope I can go again before I die. Long live LJS.

I remember seeing Ken Turner there on two different occasions. My friend and I joked about how he probably ate there all of the time and was super unhealthy and was going to have a heart attack. It was not long after that he died of a heart attack. Real hilarious, huh? Maybe next time you guys will think twice before you start making jokes about LJS.

Not a good sign for LJS' survival in Wichita...or anywhere else for that matter.

It's the kind of place I try every two years or so only to realize why I only try it so sporadically. Was going to swing by the LJS earlier this fall, but their drive-thru intercom was broken and you had to order at the window. I pull up and wait, then honk, then wait ... no service. There was a family of three in the dining room and one guy mopping the floor.

Guess I'll try again in 2016.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I'm Catholic and I haven't been to an LJS in over 15 years. Really telling that ol' Sprac is aware of fish flavored French fries. Sorry Spacne. If you ever come out to NC, I'll take you to McDonalds and we can order fish sandwich combos without the fear of fish flavored French fries.

I would have estimated a piece of the fried fish to be around 800 calories. turns out it's only 230. seems low.
