🧑‍🍳 There’s a dude in Rockwall, who has been serving burgers in his front yard since the 60s due to a weird loophole in Rockwall County zoning laws

Winchester Road; Memphis, TN. The late 80's ...

A guy had a place that was nothing. Nothing. No concrete, just gravel. No chair, no tables. Nothing. Cars parked while people were eating? Yes. In the grass. 11-2...and he always had a line.

He had a building that was smaller than the aluminum sheds you see at Lowes. Maybe 8X8 and I'm being generous. Flattop, fryer, and a fridge. That's all he had. All he served? Hamburgers. But good lord a mighty, here I am 30+ years later still thinking about how good they were.

I wondered if I could find the name of the place; or an image. I found this thread on FB. If you click, you'll see Annabelle's in Hickory Ridge Mall.

That place was cool as hell. It was a supper stop quite often. I'm not kidding when saying the dude on the left corner of the bar could be me. I sat there all the time. That's my frame.

Those small mom and pop joints are usually the best. Most strangers would never stop but the locals know where to get good food anywhere in their local area.
