We checked into our hotel, Best Western Plus in Burleson Texas, just before Ft. Worth. Very nice hotel.
I asked the desk clerk for a good spot for dinner, and she told us about "Babe's Chicken". It is in old town, sort of like our exchange district.
When we got there around 6:30 there were a lot of people waiting outside. I thought it was a no chance situation unless you wanted to wait one heck of a long time. Katie said she thought we should see how long, so we went and checked. The girl told us 10 to 25 minutes. Ahh...not too bad. So we sat outside and waited. Sure enough after about ten minutes we were in like flint.
WHAT A GREAT PLACE!
It is very big, and when seated the waitress explained how they do things. No menu. You order from a list of 5 different prepared chicken dishes. They bring the sides, you have no choice. Corn, beans, biscuits, gravy, dipping sauce for chicken tender, salad.
We ordered chicken tenders and fried chicken, so we could share.
The chicken was awesome and everything was good.
Their waitresses carry big platter to the table with one arm outstretched over their heads. A couple of the waitresses, also take a wireless mic and sing while walking through the whole place. They are country western songs. No kidding...both of them were so good they could try out for the Voice or American Idol.
Babe's had a very good atmosphere, and the staff were terrific. So glad Katie was persistent.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!
Doesn't really do it justice
and so ends another great day...not in the Valley
