Local restaurant news!

Forsyth Mo. - A few news tidbits concerning restaurants in town.

Long Horn - Apparently the Long Horn will re-open soon as they had a sign to that effect posted on their billboard which read The Forsyth Family Restaurant.

Update: Jan 30 - I did get a chance to talk to a man named Jimmy, an Italian who will be re-opening the restaurant 'soon'. He told me very little other than that they had finished hiring.

McD's - The McDonald's located at the intersection of Hwy 160 and Coy was still cranking along when I stopped there recently and ordered a Big Breakfast to go. The cost of $4.43 was acceptable for this 750 calorie meal a deal. At least to me it was.

Frosted Mug - Other than the Super Bowl Blowout planned for Feb 2, the Mug will also be offering a special Valentines Day meal for two at just $24.95 on Feb 14. I was unsure if the Stella beers were part of this deal and failed to ask.Update: I was told that the $3.75 beers were not part of the deal. Perhaps love means also buying your girl a Stella!

Charlie's Steak, Ribs and Ale - One recent rumor had it that this establishment that had been up for sale for a number of years was sold! I had not confirmed this as of Feb 9, 2020.

John's Frosted Mug hosting the Super Bowl!

Forsyth MO. - The last time the Chief's played in the Superbowl, the year was 1970! That was one heck of a long time ago and who knows when KC will get another chance to play in the big game? Make sure to get on over to the Mug early as I'm pretty sure that the seats will be filling up fast on game day!

As an added bonus, the weather in the Forsyth area will be in the mid sixties under sunny skies on that Sunday!

Nefarious activities reported in the Forsyth area!

Forsyth MO - A local resident reported to me that there had been break-ins reported in a mobile home park off Hwy 76 near Forsyth Mo.

If true, I'd advise everyone to be observant and if you see suspicious activity, to report that activity to local authorities.

Chiefs clinch a Superbowl spot while I watched at the Frosted Mug!

Forsyth MO. - Another Sunday football playoff game was to be watched in very comfortable conditions, even as it was chilly outside!

Surprisingly, considering that only one of three heating units was in operation at John's Frosted Mug located on Hwy 160 in Forsyth MO., it still was a very comfortable 75 degrees. I attributed this to the heat given off by a packed house that enjoyed watching the Chief's shellac the Titans in a decisive 35 to 24 game at Arrowhead. A game that saw the KC Chiefs headed to the Superbowl for only the third time (once in 1967 and again in 1970 in a year they won! That year the American Football League champion Kansas City Chiefs defeated the National Football League champion Minnesota Vikings by the score of 23–7)! 

This time around the Chiefs will face the San Francisco 49'ers at the Hard Rock stadium in Miami Florida. I betting that weather will not pose a problem for either team on Sunday, January 26 at 5:30 PM EST on Fox! Grab a choice seat now for only $20 payable to me.... just kidding.
