It's now May. No "R". Oysters therefore aren't fit for human consumption. But thanks though.

The best place in Lubbock to eat is in El Paso.

The Double Nickel Steakhouse is good, but pricey. It's a little too pretentious for my taste, but some people like that.

I am not sure that is so true anymore... given that they are now farmed and refridgeration techniques have improved. Anyone know how that rule started anyway?

I believe it has something to do with water temps and the various micro-organisms that are present in the water, and therefore present in a fresh oyster, at warmer times.

It depends on how generous Homey's firm is with its expense accounts (i.e., the clients' money). ;)

when Tech games are on TV, there's some restaurant they always mention with "the best" chicken fried steak in the world. like it's a landmark.

I believe it has something to do with water temps and the various micro-organisms that are present in the water, and therefore present in a fresh oyster, at warmer times.

So I looked into it. it has been attributed to 3 things 1)bad refridgeration in summer in the past, 2) toxic algae in the water, 3) they are often reproducing during this time so you have eat a little bit more reproductive organ and they can be milky tasting.

Thanks for the tip. Very nice meal. BTW, I saw Bobby Knight in the airport as we were leaving Lubbock. Unfortunately he wasn't yelling at anyone.

Homey's never had a problem being pretentious.
