A New Semi-Fast Food Chicken Chain in Town

Recently Laurie and I were out and about as we experienced one of our most common 'social events'...a medically related appointment!  Following that social event, as we drove toward Loudon on Kingston Pike/US Hwy 11/Lee Highway, we decided to try a new chicken restaurant chain that recently came to Farragut Tennessee.  


This is Super Chix.  Originally owned by Yum Foods, this concept was purchased from Yum and the Super Chix company is now headquartered in Plano Texas.  From what I could determine, most if not all Super Chix restaurants are owned by franchisees.  The Farragut location is in the new and large retail/business/apartment development that's located next to a large Kroger shopping area. 


I borrowed this photo from the Farragut Tennessee Super Chix website.  The interior of this restaurant is definitely a full application of the industrial 'style' that has been so popular in recent years (and less expensive to develop).  

Customer order their meals at the register area at the far end of this room.  There is a menu board and handouts are also available. (see below) Customers place their orders and they're giving a number to place on their table.  The food is delivered to your table when it's ready.    



As you can see above, the menu is straightforward and simple.  You can order chicken as a sandwich or 'tenders' (fried or grilled) or a salad (most with fried or grilled chicken).  Sides include French Fries, Fried Pickles or Coleslaw.  As with Chick-fil-a, its all about chicken...keeps the operation simple.


Laurie ordered the Nashville Hot Salad with breaded and fried Chicken. ($10.99) It wasn't too 'hot' and she did enjoy it.  She wants to try something else the next time we visit Super Chix.


I considered ordering a sandwich but instead opted for 3 breaded and fried Chicken Tenders tossed in Nashville hot sauce ($6.99).  I sided the chicken with a regular order of their fresh hand-cut French fries. ($3.99) 

I'm glad that I didn't order the large size as there were plenty of fries...and they were very good indeed.  FYI, customers are asked what seasoning they would like on their fries.  Nice to have options, especially if one is trying to avoid too much salt.  

The chicken tenders were moist and flavorful and the Nashville Hot sauce was about a 5 out of 10 for my palate...just enough heat to be interesting.  There is a 'sauce bar' with 8 different options including a traditional 'buffalo' sauce.  

We stuck with water for our beverages (free).  There were 2 or 3 helpful employees working the dining area, clearing trays when diners were done eating, bringing orders to tables and answering questions.  Nice group of folks...


If you noticed the "Premium Frozen Custard" portion of the menu as shown above, fear not.  Laurie did order a 'to go' scoop of the vanilla custard as we left Super Chix. ($3.49) Laurie gave me a taste and we both agreed that it was excellent frozen custard.  

OK...We did like Super Chix.  Not inexpensive but then again what restaurant these days is?!  It's kind of like Chick-fil-a on steroids (no drive through though) plus Culver's with the frozen custard.  At the moment, there are 34 Super Chix Restaurants in the USA across 15 states...mostly in the west and southeastern states.  

The Super Chix in Farragut Tennessee is located at 116 Brooklawn Street but it backs up to Kingston Pike.  Phone: 865-284-2449.  The restaurant is open from 11 AM until 9 PM 7 days a week.  Website: https://www.superchix.com/. 

NOTE: There will be a pause in my blog posts, starting now, length of time to be determined.  I'm having surgery on my right hand, followed by therapy.  Use of 2 fingers on that hand will be hampered, hopefully just for a short while.

Odds and Ends Around Our Home

...taking yet another break from our October 2024 road trip blog spot 'saga'.  This time its all about 'not much', or as the title reads...just odds and ends. 



What a difference just two years make!  While the seasons are obviously not comparable/matchy-matchy, the view from our front yard tells the story.  None of the houses in the second photo existed about 2 years ago...and, while the building in the area continues, demand has dropped off so new construction has slowed as well.  


As winter's end approaches, Laurie and I are digging through drawers, closets and boxes, rediscovering 'stuff' as well as heirlooms that we'd sort of forgotten about.  One 'discovery' of note was this half-moon petit point rug.  It was made by my grandmother, Estelle Sibbald Weed, back in 1951.  It now complements an antique brass double bed that Laurie and I bought many, many years ago.


Grandma Weed also created this much larger (roughly 4' x 6') oval petit point rug that we have on the floor in the middle of our bonus room.  We have both of them in locations that keep them out of direct sunlight so they won't fade.  The larger rug has to date somewhere between 1950 and 1952.  Just another 25 years or so and both rugs will qualify as antiques... 

Petit point is a type of canvas embroidery.  These items are worked on an even-weave needlepoint canvas instead of a tightly woven fabric.  A blunt-tipped tapestry needle is used to create petit point pieces.  Petit point is more difficult/complex than needlepoint.



These photos show one corner of the dormer room in our home in which I pay bills, focus on my postcard and other collections, and more... I have bookcases, a nice desk and artwork on the walls.  As you can see, I've been sharing this room with this big HVAC unit.  For the last 15+ years, I've been 'hiding it' with that folding screen that I 'improved' with photos from my annual Smithsonian week by week calendars.  

FYI, until last year the room also featured ugly indoor/outdoor carpeting.  We never understood why the dormer rooms weren't carpeted like all the other rooms on the second floor of our home.  


So recently we had a closet built for the HVAC unit, using folding doors so the unit can be serviced as needed.  For those that are attentive, the unit needs to breath and the cold air return vent is in the hallway outside on the other side of the wall on the right... In any case, I now have a much nicer view as I pay the bills!






A week or two ago, Laurie and I were at Terry's home.  She is our new neighbor and she live right behind our house.  There is a narrow strip of woods and brush between our homes and it does attract critters.  We've seen Mr. Fox before, most recently trotting down the street in front of our house.  Of course, we didn't have a camera on hand at the time.  This time, Mr. Fox was foraging for mice, voles, and other rodents along the tree line in Terry's backyard...and Laurie had her new smart phone at the ready!  



Some cabinets and drawers in the kitchen were recently 'deconstructed' as regarded their contents.  We have so too much stuff, much of which we don't use.  In addition, reorganization was badly needed.  As a consequence, we loaded up that laundry basket with items we don't need or use, much of which will be donated to some deserving organization.  As for those 17 glass plates, (or are they chargers?), neighbors Sue and Steve entertain more than we do so the plates have a new home.  

What else will we discover this spring as we root through the closets, nooks and crannies in our home?  More items for charity, some throwaways and perhaps a few things to sell on "Nextdoor"...  

That's all for now.  Just click on any of the photos to enlarge them.

It's All About Woodstock Virginia...

...continuing with our fall 2024 road trip through several states.  Our last road trip sights and experiences on this adventure were in the state of Virginia.  On this particular day we'd driven from Mansfield Pennsylvania down past Harrisburg and Greencastle, then a short bit through Maryland past Hagerstown and into Virginia.  Our overnight stay for this leg of the trip was in Woodstock.

 
Unfortunately, for me at least, Woodstock offers many shopping opportunities for both locals and travelers.  I don't remember what Laurie purchased at this shop but I do know that she wasn't finished shopping!  You can check out The Buttercup Gift Shop, located at 120 South Main Street, by visiting their website at https://thebuttercupva.myshopify.com/.


Just across from the Buttercup, I spotted this handsome log building at 129 South Main Street.  Fortunately neither Laurie or I assumed that it was a retail destination.  Built in 1787 this restored log structure originally was a home.  Later it was covered with weatherboard.  Not too long ago, the new owner took off the weatherboard and restored the building.  It's now the home of Nate and Main, which offers a curated selection of works by local artists as well as antique and vintage home a garden decor.  Learn more on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/nateandmain/.


The Community Theater in Woodstock Virginia was built in 1940 by the Dalke family.  In addition to this theater, the family owned one other theater in Woodstock as well as others in Shenandoah County.  While most of these theaters have gone away, apparently the Community Theater has never closed.  New owners took over in 2008.  The interior is fairly intact except that there are now 3 screens/theaters offered that seat a total of 650 patrons.  Website: http://communitywoodstock.com/.


I couldn't find very much information about this handsome old home at 144 North Main Street.  Apparently it was built in the latter half of the 1800s...and it certainly has been well preserved!  As far as I could determine, it currently serves as a residence, an insurance company office and home  for a physical therapist.   


This was the shop that ended Laurie's shopping for the day!  As you can see, Three French Hens at 143 North Main Street was loaded with possibilities outside...so you can imagine just how packed with goodies this store was inside!  My downfall was another comforter for our king size bed.  It was almost pristine and while it was much less expensive than a brand new one would have cost, it wasn't exactly free either... Website: https://www.facebook.com/p/Three-French-Hens-Woodstock-VA-100045482802459/.

As for the structure, it was built as a home in the late 1800s.  Before becoming Three French Hens, it has served as apartments and offices.


This handsome building at 132 North Main Street was built as a home ca 1830.  It displays both Greek revival and Italianate design elements.  At some point it served as the Intellectual Arts Building but now it's the home of a Certified Public Accounting/Business Consulting firm.


Constructed in 1877, this building also started out as a home.  With the installation of those storefront windows, the lower level has been transformed into retail space.  At one point, one entrance led to an art gallery and the other door provided entry to Shenandoah Sports.  Today, the building is the home of Traveler's Treasures...a shop that we skipped given our 'shopping expenditures' for the day.  Website: https://www.facebook.com/joystravelerstreasures/. 

FYI, Woodstock Virginia is the oldest town in Shenandoah County Virginia as well as the county seat.  It was founded in 1761.  Unlike many small towns across the USA, Woodstock has seen a steady growth in population, from 1,815 in 1950 to over 5,300 today.  




As the day faded toward night, we sought out a dining destination.  The goal was an inexpensive diner style local restaurant.  A quick search led to the Route 11 Diner at 1296 South Main Street.  Basic sign, simple exterior and a spotless interior that was almost devoid of decor...


Laurie kept her evening meal simple and basic.  As we'd had lunch, she wasn't very hungry and this  bowl of broccoli cheese soup and that nice hunk of cornbread was more than enough for her evening repast.

You know that it's a diner when they offer sloppy joes, a country ham dinner and beef liver with caramelized onions...  


Was I hungrier than Laurie?  Probably not but still I ordered a small steak with this pile of French fries.  Hey, at least the apple sauce was healthy!  Actually the steak was pretty tasty... Oh yes, I did talk Laurie into sharing a single serving of raspberry cobbler.  No photo though as we'd/I'd pretty much destroyed our dessert before I thought about taking a photo.

Our meals were just fine and the service was friendly down home style.  This restaurant is closed on Monday.  Phone: 540-459-8181.  Website: https://route11.top/.


This photo definitely out of order.  It was taken earlier in the day.  Laurie loves horses and as we drove to our Hampton Inn for the night, we spotted this race track and a number of standardbred horses pulling their drivers in their sulkies around a track.  Practice and exercise for the horses and drivers I'm sure.  Sometimes referred to as 'trotters', harness racing is about the horse that can trot the fastest without breaking pace.  Harness racing used to be more popular in the US but despite some decline, there are still 35 harness racing tracks in the USA and Canada.  Learn more about harness racing at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harness_racing.

The Shenandoah Downs Racetrack is located at 300 Fairgrounds Road in Woodstock.  This track is one of 4 harness racing tracks in Virginia.  The next series of races at this track will take place on Saturday and Sunday afternoons from April 26th through June 8th.  Wagering is available.  Website: https://shenandoahdowns.com/.


Fans along the rail with their race sheets


The start of the race.  Once the horses are even, the starter vehicle pulls aside.

My home town, Jackson Michigan, was a home for harness racing from 1948 until 2008 when the track at the Jackson County Fairgrounds was scheduled for demolition.  I have memories of going to the races with my mother and my stepfather.  My mother...not a 'horse person', wagered on a couple of races and won.  My stepfather...definitely a horse person even owning 3 horses including an Arabian stallion when I was in the 4th grade, wagered and, much to his frustration, was not a winner.  My mother was very amused at the outcome...

Local - Mostly a Variety of Dining Choices

...Time for another short break from our road trip last October that took us through 7 different states.  The focus this time is on food...from 3 different restaurants, but also Laurie's new "phone friend" and a new neighbor.


Laurie and I are always looking for quality pizza, something that we have struggled to find here in East Tennessee. (Suggestions are welcome!) For us the best pizza in the area can be found at the Tellico Grains Bakery in Tellico Plains Tennessee. (Lunch Only - website: https://tellico-grains-bakery.com/)

But we've continued to search.  FYI, our definition of quality pizza includes the generous use of toppings, a distinctive red sauce and a firm but thin crust.  Of course, everyone has their favorite types of pizza... It's a personal preference.

So we recently had a pizza at a 'new to us' restaurant, Corner Pizza.  Apparently, it has been in business for a while.  Corner Pizza is located at the intersection of US Hwy 11 and US Hwy 70 at the northern edge of Loudon County.  We ordered out 'touchstone' pizza, the one we use to compare with others.  Italian Sausage and Pepperoni.  Corner Pizza's version was very nice indeed.  Our mistake was that we went with their standard crust, a bit too thick for our taste, but we failed to note that a thin crust pizza was available.  We shall return in the near future for another taste test!  Website: https://www.cornerpizzalenoircity.com/


Recently we returned to another restaurant that we've 'discovered', Sol Azteca, a Mexican Restaurant in Madisonville Tennessee that we really like.  We went with another couple and we tried a couple of entrees that we hadn't tried before.  Shown above is their Polo Coyoacan, grilled chicken breast topped with chorizo and shredded cheese.  It was accompanied by Mexican rice, refried beans with more cheese...and tortillas.  Both members our group that ordered this entree were very happy with their meals!


For my entree, I decided to go for the Burrito San Jose.  This large burrito was filled with pieces of pork and steak, then topped with chorizo and cheese.  As you can see, Mexican rice and refried beans were also included.  There was plenty of meat involved but I didn't think that that steak/beef and pork mixture was ideal.  Next time I order a burrito it will be all about the steak or perhaps, chicken.  FYI, I mixed the chorizo in with the beans and cheese...and it was a very tasty side dish!

Sol Azteca is now our 'go to' Mexican restaurant in the area...and we 10 or more choices within 15 miles of our home.  Sol Azteca is on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/solaztecamadisonville/


Now for a bit of cuisine from India.  I'd previously written about our positive experience at The Spice Hut in Lenoir City.  On this occasion we were accompanied by a couple that hadn't eaten there before, with the male half of the couple planning a photographic excursion to India.  He wanted to sample some Indian food so he would have some idea of what he might be eating on his trip.

One of our starters or appetizers was this order of Chili Cheese Naan.  Fresh bread/naan with fresh chili and cheese topped with butter and roasted in the clay oven. ($5.99) Everyone seemed to really like this version of naan, but I didn't think that it was very distinctive, more like a cheese pizza and I couldn't really detect any chili flavor.


Our second appetizer was an order of Punjabi Aloo Samosas.  Filled with a potato and peas stuffing, these flaky crust creations were served with a tangy tamarind and date sauce. ($4.99) Everyone really enjoyed these treats...with that sauce kicking them up a couple of notches.


I can't recall what this dish was called on the menu.  It is Tandoori Chicken with an assortment of vegetables.  While the diner who ordered this for dinner did enjoy it, she felt that the amount of chicken served was pretty skimpy.  

Looking at the online menu, Tandoori chicken is nowhere to be found.  The menu is one of the shortcomings of this restaurant.  The online menu doesn't provide descriptions of the majority of offerings listed.  The menu provided at the restaurant provides zero descriptions of the dishes, but if you want to take the time and you have a smart phone, you can pull up some information on your phone.  This is definitely not customer friendly...and the servers are not very helpful in this regard.  When ordering, you are sort of on your own.  In the future, I'll just research 2 or 3 Indian dishes on line to determine what I want to order.


Our future traveler to India decided to order the Crispy Honey Chicken. ($16.99) This entree wasn't described on the menu.  However, as per an Indian's input on line, this is basically an Chinese style recipe with a sweet flavor and some mild spices...but the Indian version is spicier and has a bit of moderate heat.  Note the pickled vegetables.  This wouldn't be my choice but Bob has a much broader palate than I do and he did enjoy his meal.


Both Laurie and I went for entrees that we knew and really enjoy.  Her choice was the Butter Chicken, or murgh makhani. ($16.99) This Indian dish originated in Delhi India and it is a style of curry that is made with chicken and a spiced tomato and butter sauce.  As during our previous visits to The Spice Hut, Laurie was very happy with her dinner!


As is my habit in Indian restaurants, I ordered the Lamb Vindaloo. ($19.99) Basically it consists of chunks of lamb and potatoes with a spicy sauce.  It was excellent.  Note: All of these entrees come with a large bowl of what I think is basmati rice, in my case great for soaking up all that sauce with chunks of potato or lamb.   

Diners at The Spice Hut are offered a level of spicy 'heat' with every entree.  The range goes from 1 to 10.  Laurie was happy with a 4 and I chose a 7, perfect for my taste.

Do not be deterred by my comments on the menu.  The Spice Hut does serve good food...but a little research is needed by diners unless they are familiar with Indian cuisine.  Also don't panic when you drive up to the restaurant...which shares a large space with a fireworks store, convenience store and gas station.  The restaurant is nicely separated from the rest of the businesses.  

The Spice Hut is located at 1204 US Hwy 321 in Lenoir City Tennessee.  It's just west of Exit 81 off of I-75.  They are open daily for lunch and dinner.  Website: https://spicehutind.com/.


Moving on from all that food.  This photo shows Laurie with her new friend Zane at the Verizon store in the Turkey Creek Shopping Center.  Zane helped her with a major challenge...moving from her Samsung Smart Phone to an iPhone from Apple.  While she's still learning...and leaning on others to help her with the transition, Zane provided a lot of basic assistance.  For the first couple of days after the change, I just hid out for my own mental well-being.  Great progress has been achieved.


Introducing our new neighbor... This is Terry and she just moved into the new home that is located directly behind us in Loudon County.  She is a 'crafter' and a retired member of the US Military.  A common bond with us is that she's also a collector...of a variety of items she loves.  Much to my liking, she counts philately as one of her hobbies.  Welcome to the neighborhood Terry and thank you for your service to the USA!

Off the Interstate - Headed South in Pennsylvania

...continuing with our fall 2024 road trip through several states.  Leaving Mansfield Pennsylvania after our spending our second night in the town, Laurie and I headed south on US Hwy 15.  The highway follows the Susquehanna River for many miles on its way to Chesapeake Bay.  At Harrisburg Pennsylvania, we merged onto Interstate Highway I-81 south.  Tired of traffic and the boredom of most Interstate Highways, we exited at Shippensburg Pennsylvania.  Our alternative route was US Hwy 11 south, (known in the South as Lee Highway).  It runs parallel to I-81 for many miles.  


This is the Redott-Stewart House at 52 King Street/US Hwy 11 in Shippensburg.  This large stone home, also known as the Shippen House, was built ca. 1784 by the Redott family...or was it?  Other sources state that the oldest section of the house was built ca. 1750 by Edward Shippen III. In the early 1800s, it was purchased by Dr. Alexander Stewart.  Today, it is the home of the Shippensburg Historical Society and Museum.  

In addition to the early history of Shippensburg and the surrounding area, the Society possesses one of the largest collections of memorabilia from the Depression Era's Works Progress Administration.  The collection dates from 1935 to 1941.  To learn more about the Historical Society, go to https://www.shippensburghistoricalsociety.org/about.

In July of 1730, twelve Scotch-Irish families arrived in the area and built cabins along nearby Burd Run (creek).  The settlement received its name from from Edward Shippen, who had obtained the patent to the land from William Penn's heirs.  In 1750, Shippensburg was named as the first county seat for Cumberland County.  Of interest is the fact that one of Shippen's daughters married Benedict Arnold...a traitor to the American Revolution.

                            

Our next stop along the way was at the campus of Wilson College in Chambersburg Pennsylvania.  The small and attractive building at the right of this photo is called "Harmony Cottage".  It was built in 1897 to serve as a professor's home.  The college's organist lived here during that time period and into the early 1900s.  It was briefly converted into a dormitory in 1926.  In 1929, the cottage was 'pivoted' to face the road in order to make room for that larger structure.  It's Warfield Hall and it was completed in 1930.  As regards the cottage, it now serves as the college's Office of Marketing and Communications.

Wilson College itself, with it's 300-acre campus, is a Historic District that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  Wilson College was established by the Presbyterian Church back in 1869.  It was a women's college, one of the first to accept only female students, until it became fully coeducational in 2014.  It was originally named Wilson Female College.  In 1870, the college's promotional material stated that it was a place for women "to be leaders, not followers, in society".


This is the Joshua W. Sharpe House.  This handsome Queen Anne style home was built in 1887 and it was purchased by Wilson College in 1942.  As part of the College, is has served as faculty and student apartments, a faculty club, classroom, meeting space as well as for WWII relief work and related studies.  From 1998 - 2000 it served the Wilson College's Women with Children Program.  Subsequently, it was remodeled and it now serves as the home of the college's President.

In 1982, Wilson began offering a continuing studies program (now known as the Adult Degree Program) to meet the needs of adults seeking post-secondary education. In 1996, the college was one of the first in the nation to offer on-campus residential housing for single mothers living with children.  Co-educational - men as of 2014.  Wilson College currently has about 1,620 students.  You can learn more at https//:www.wilson.edu/.


This large home with the covered auto/carriage portico and that amazing porch is located close to the Sharpe House as described above.  I suspect that this home is used by the College, faculty or alumnus but I wasn't able to find anything about it.  I just liked it!



Moving further south on US Hwy 11, as we neared the Maryland State Line, we stopped at Greencastle Pennsylvania.  The "Greencastle High Line" railway depot was built by the Cumberland Valley Railroad in 1909.  It served passenger trains running between Hagerstown Maryland and Harrisburg Pennsylvania, but declining usage with advent of increased travel via automobiles after WWII, passenger service was halted.  The postcard shown above is from 1952.  To learn more about the Cumberland Valley Railroad, go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumberland_Valley_Railroad.

The High Line Train Station was named for it's elevated rails.  Many decades after the end of passenger service, the old depot still serves the community by promoting youth leadership.  As a matter of fact, the depot is now managed by the Greencastle Area Youth Foundation.  The Youth Foundation is a non-profit whose goals are to maintain the historical integrity of the Station, preserving its and the railroad's heritage, while providing a meeting place for area youth organizations...and at the same time, promoting local arts.  

The Greencastle Area Youth Foundation has made significant repairs to the building while establishing several displays designed to preserve the area's railroad history.  Web cams have been installed over the tracks so railfans can watch passing trains online and displays have been mounted for visiting railfans to safely monitor ongoing rail traffic.  Learn more at https://www.mightycause.com/organization/Greencastle-Area-Youth-Foundation.


One last stop in Pennsylvania before lunch... The B-Street Restaurant and Pub is located in the old McLaughlin Hotel in downtown Greencastle Pennsylvania.  The hotel was completed and opened for business in 1905.  The site has had a continuously operating restaurant since the late 1700s.  I was unable to determine what the upper floors of the old hotel are being used for now.  To learn more about the B-Street Restaurant and Pub, you can go to https//:bstreet104.com/.



No...we didn't have lunch at the B-Street Restaurant and Pub.  We'd determined that a local 'diner-style' restaurant was close by so we stopped for our lunch time repast at Home Style Family Restaurant which is located at 26 North Antrim Way in Greencastle Pennsylvania.  it was after the lunch hour so it wasn't busy when we arrived.  


We kept lunch simple... Laurie ordered a Patty Melt (burger, cheese and sauteed onion on grilled rye bread), accompanied by some potato chips.  She was happy with her choice.


I wasn't very adventuresome either but my sandwich was a little different than I expected.  I ordered the pork tenderloin sandwich...and where we come from that means a hunk of pork, breaded and fried on a bun.  My sandwich was indeed pork tenderloin but it was either grilled or fried...no breading.  Despite the surprise version of a pork tenderloin sandwich, it was very nice, not overcooked and still juicy.  Without those potato chips, it might have been a healthy meal.

The Home Style Family Restaurant in Greencastle Pennsylvania is open from 6 AM until 8 PM 6 days a week and from 7 AM until 2 PM on Sunday.  Note: 787 Google reviews give this restaurant a rating of 4.6 out of 5.0 possible points.  Check it out at https://www.facebook.com/homestylefamilyrestaurant/.
