Grandy's

The old Grandy's on the SW corner of NE 36th & Lincoln will become a Scooter's Coffee.

There is room for another building on that site but not sure of the plan.

My wife went to the Grandys on 39th and MacArthur a couple of days ago since they have reopened. She wanted chicken livers and they no longer sell those or gizzards.

I can't imagine there's much of a market left for livers and gizzards.... I grew up on a farm and we ate them but it wasn't my favorite part of the chicken. So I'm definitely not going to order them now.... My mom on the other hand will still eat them.

But even bone-in chicken is slowly disappearing since all the generations after mine grew up on nuggets.

I agree with gizzards. It's just that she could always go there and get livers before they had the fire there and closed for a while.

I drove passed the Grandy's on South Western and it looks like a barn, it is not very good design-wise

I hear you on the bone in. Some bone in thighs and wings please. Also even harder to find is chicken gravy with fried chicken.
Jim's Famous was good until Swadley ran into "permanetly closed".

Jim's Famous, before Swadley's ruined it, and Family Affair both had great chicken gravy.

There was also a place down at Healdton called Grasshopper Junction that made white gravy from their chicken drippings in a cast iron skillet.... It was AMAZING!

Unfortunately all 3 are no longer around.
