Ringside Franks and Shakes

Karen and I drove around for 45 minutes today, getting ever agitated as we tried to decide a place for lunch.  I always want to try somewhere new, but neither of us was coming up with that.  Finally, Karen scored on her phone as she said "How about Ringside Franks and Shakes?".  Without knowing anything about it, I knew it sounded right, especially since it was about 2:30.


The restaurant is small and unpretentious, the food is the star, but the atmosphere isn't lacking.  Old time blues music prevails, and the staff are exceedingly friendly.  We both got your basic dog, Karen's with mustard and slaw, mine was killer with chili and jalapeno pimento cheese.  We split an order of fries, and a vanilla shake.  Dogs were big, buns were tasty and grilled, fries were seasoned and cooked just right, and the shake was a perfect ending.  No complaints about anything.  Will be back!

  1. I would love both those dogs right now, as I heat a Weight Watchers crap meal for dinner. This blog is awesome. I like my movies in black and white, circa 1945 - 1949. Keep it up, Mr. Finacannon. That was deliberate because I get called Kathaleen a lot.
