Jake and Dorothy's ??? Now there is a landmark!
Yeah, it is. When I was growing up it was a just place that I wasn't "allowed" to go in after a certain time of night. 8)
Jake and Dorothy's daughter owns and runs it now...and it still does a booming business. I remember this guy that cooked in there...we called him Frog. He was one of those that you didn't want to watch cook anything... 'Course it didn't keep us from eating those chicken fried steaks.
That was 40 years ago...and the guy still cooks there...discovered that just the other day...and he's cleaned up his act immeasurably. And the waitresses still pile plates full of food on their arms all the way up to their shoulders.
There's a lot of "history" connected to that place... :lol:

Chickenfried steak and waffle fries - Frog's speciality! Many memorable evening's at J & D's while attending TSU.
