(did I get the name right?) which was also on Cedar Springs IIRC? They made pretty decent burgers, and charged as if they were outstanding. The tables had little flags that signaled waitresses. Fanciest hamburger shop I ever frequented.
To this day, the best hamburger I've ever put in my mouth is made at my home by Bonnie. Not bragging, just stating. But the Side Oats Grama in Menard, Texas comes close. Of chain stores, there was a diner type place that was all over in the sixties, including one at the SE corner of Hampton and Davis. Arrrggghhh! Can't remember the name. They served a burger they called "masterburger," cooked on a typical diner grill, not charcoaled, and served on a grill toasted bun the old fashioned way. Excellent. Anyone remember this?
Too bad about Goff's. I didn't manage to make the movie night, but have intended to make it to Goff's for nostalgia sake for years, and haven't. Someone mentioned that Goff's no longer has ice cream, either. There are so few places left of the old times, and of those that maintain the name, most have changed ownership (at least Goff's is still owned by Goff) and no longer resemble the places of yore. Norma's Diner is a case in particular point. Back in the day, the food was excellent old Texas diner fare, like my mother used to serve at her Pyote, Texas diner. I went to Norma's a few years ago, and found flash frozen processed meat patties and frozen french fries on a chicken fry plate. Then someone alerted me to Norma's Daughter's Diners, owned by, for real, the daughter's of the original Norma. I thought, oh, that will be the place. Nope, mediocre.
