hey guys!! I have a problem, sometimes I pre-run pie runs when going to someplace new, and I did just that this weekend and am suffering from severe sticker shock!

I ordered the Texas country classic burger
Our signature! 8 oz of fresh ground beef blended with onion, spices n grilled to perfection. We serve it up on a toasted bun with your choice of veggie trimmins to finish it up. (Comes with cheese.)

it had no onion or spices of any kind blended in, just a plain ordinary burger on a NON toasted bun.

it didn't come with any sides so I ordered onion rings and got a very small serving of onion rings
I also ordered sweet tea (that was good) and had a slice of reeces pie (mrs fields store bought pie) good for store bought I like mrs fields pie.

the bill was $16.63!!!:eek2:

do you guys realy want to go here or would you be up for a change of venue?
I am not aware of anyplace else around Whitney that can handle very many people. probably someplace in Hillsborro.
 
Seems like I usually spent $12-$15 wherever we go. I'd let it ride this year.
 
I did a test of that place back in the early summer when I was on a FM Road sign hunting ride for that game. Can't remember exactly what I got or the price I paid but I also don't remember thinking the price was high. Seems it was about like I usually end up spending. Maybe they have increased their prices since then. I do remember I though the quality was good.
 
A bunch of us attended a M&E ride to Sissy Saddle Shop Cafe. Choice of pot roast or chicken & dumplings, 2 sides Unsweetened tea and pie for $17.something plus tip. I don't attend based on price but for the ride and company. Good food is a bonus, good cheap food is an added bonus.

Thanks for keeping an eye out for us. I appreciate it. If folks think too expensive they won't be on the list for next year :trust:
 
I guess the price of a good burger is getting ever higher!!!! :eat:
 
was thinking about having next August run to Gaylord Texan resort.:mrgreen:
 
Most of my meals seem to end up in the $35 range. This is sounding better and better!
 
We can't park down the street and just mass crash the indoor water park part?
 
Not that I am coming anyway BUT the prices yall are saying seem really high to me :eek2: maybe things are a little cheaper here . And i always make my wife pay the bill when we eat together so I don`t know how much it costs. :doh: :giveup: :lol2:

Did a search on restaurants in Lake Whitney and found this place:
http://www.texasgreatcountrycafe.com/index.html

Only problem is, from the picture under location, don't think it's big enough to seat many folks. That burger they show on the web page REALLY looks good.

I believe that is the place we are going to. Just like Dr Who's TARDIS, it's bigger on the inside ;-).

its no Sam's (Fairfield) but it should do for how many we have signed up so far.

Correction, it extends even further to the left. ( there now testing CFS)
 
Someone here on a silver GS who's not afraid to get it dirty, don't know if they are member or not.
 
Haveing a motorcycle addiction is never cheap. A few more bucks for burgers with this motley crew is worth it.
