Well, I was going to suggest that....

Umm... so doesn't anyone want to get together this year? Me! Me! Me! What about The Ritz Klub? That was a pretty life-altering cheeseburger I enjoyed at last year's gathering. I don't think I've been to Holly's in 20 years, but I remember not liking it. I'm pretty flexible - so long as we go somewhere I like. |

The Ritz Klub is nice...
I've been back there since last year, still good food with large portions, good service, and good price. Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind~Dr. Suess

I could also extend the idea to the facebook page, which has 840 members now by the way

If we want to stay local, we could always try something like Holly's. That is one of my favorite spots. NO NO NO! Every time I eat at Holly's it takes forever. Welcome to the Michigan City Area Schools, we are over budget, over paid, overwhelmed ... |

Considering the walking zombie service my family and I experienced last year at Swingbelly's I would not suggest that dump.

My son is in town for Thanksgiving and he ate at Holly's yesterday. The food had to be sent back and the waitress was awful. My son was very disappointed because he's always had fond memories of that place.
I'd be happy with the Ritz Klub again.... Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind~Dr. Suess

I mean, it's not McDonald's ... but I wouldn't use the term "pricey." Benny's is a nice atmosphere (fairly quiet) and has more room than Ritz Club. I like RItz club, but it is crowded and I have tried to go there twice recently when their open sign was on, patrons were inside (8:30 to 9:00 pm) and found the doors locked becuase they were going to close early. Their hours are at their own whim. Benny's also has a larger selection of drinks and their food (IMHO) is good and not pricey (again IMO). They have dinner specials daily. * "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

I'm not in love with Ritz Klub or anything - more like a default vote based on not really having another idea. Benny's menu looks good. At first I thought "way out there?" But then I remembered spending a lot of time out there when the Dompkes owned it. I'm good with Benny's. |

Aren't they a little... pricey? I have no idea, really - just a gut feeling that they might be. Not really pricey but I will say if we meet there, the only thing I'll order is some straight, high proof drink, I'll leave it at that. Holly's... the last time and one of the first times I was there was about five years ago. I ordered a BLT. Out came my BLT, on a plate, with some cold fries, two pieces of white bread, some brown lettuce and a couple slices of tomatoe, no bacon! I asked where the bacon was and the server told me they had run out, lol. |
