Tad's Chicken 'N Dumplins for sale in Troutdale, OR

Historic Tad's Chicken and Dumplins for sale in Troutdale Oregon. See link: Tad's Chicken 'n Dumpling's for sale and Tad's Chicken and Dumplin for sale Now the exterior of the building features the Historic Register sign below.
There is a video of the restaurant being explored by a guy on youtube after it was closed down. The owner let him video the inside of the restaurant. Check it out. 

Kind of interesting and I wish the lighting had been better. Reading reviews on Yelp and Trip Advisor the quality of the food had been going downhill. I wanted to eat there but other people kept telling me they had gone and wish they never had. Regardless the restaurant has historic significance and should be carried on as Tad's or the new owner could start his own name, food offerings, etc. I still think they should go with the chicken and dumplins but using this recipe instead of the football sized dumplins. 
Now photos of the interior starting with the cool looking bar area. 
and of course the bar with a drink on the bar 
and the third time the charm. 
Behold the dining room 
and here is another view 
and another angle. 
The restrooms are in the basement so the staircase takes you back up to the dining area. 
There are many antiques like the old fashioned juke box. 
and you have an antique cash register 
and here is a photo of some of food offerings and beautiful Sandy river views for the customers. 
Notice the size of those giant chicken and dumplings. I think they are way to big. Fried chicken below that. Now just imagine yourself being seated by the window with the glorious Sandy River view. 
and here is the view of the menu and you can actually read it if you cock your head sideways.
This can all be yours.

The Eventuary is for sale in Lincoln City, Oregon for the perfect themed restaurant idea

Image
  It is a very large restaurant event center and was formerly a funeral home.  My idea would be to turn this property into a Vampire themed restaurant where the waitresses wear the elegant costume like actress Andree Melly wore in the comedy horror film THE HORROR OF IT ALL as your servers. See photo:  The signage on the outside where the slogan would be, "Where people are dying to get in and dine" Just imagine how fun it would be to order a diet coke by saying, "Hey Vampira, bring me a diet coke please!" The doors on the building all need to be changed to a coffin shape. The Eventuary  It has a great location near the ocean.  and it has a stage where you could put on musical, comedy, or magic shows on different nights. Behold the stage.  and here is another angle.  I would hang a giant wall portrait of the hottest movie vampire of all time who was portrayed by the late great actress Andree Melly, from the film THE HORROR OF IT ALL up on the wall to overlook the pr

The Sundance Saloon is for sale in Parker, Arizona

The legendary Sundance Saloon is for sale in Parker, Arizona  Sundance Saloon is for sale  for 4 million dollars. It is 18,000 square feet but needs a lot of remodeling & TLC. It's glory days were back in the 70's and 80's I read.  People went to drink, party, and find their significant other or one night stand of their dreams. Did I mention they drank a lot???  There is more then just one bar in the large facility. After much fasting and prayer, looking into my crystal ball, slamming down tarot cards, meditating, and downing two McDonald's cheeseburgers, a large order of fries and drinking a diet coke big gulp I have received personal revelation how to return the Sundance Saloon back to glory! The Saloon is situated on the banks of the Colorado River and is located on what they call the Parker Strip.  These are four grand "keys"or ideas to bring this landmark back to life. 1. Need to add life to the menu by adding these food items: For appetizers I woul

Lookout Roadhouse for sale in Lake Elsinore, California

Image
The Lookout Roadhouse is for sale in Lake Elsinore, California  Lookout Roadhouse for sale  and checkout the youtube video  It is a great restaurant with a view. Anyhow I was telling my psychiatrist about my 5 ideas about a breastaurant. The first being a Mexican food breastaurant called WHORE HAYS, with sort of a Mexican Hee-Haw theme to the waitress outfit. A French one called WHORE D'OEUVRES where the waitresses dress as sexy French Maids. An American cuisine one called SLOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN WHORES with the caricature of "Slow White" as a male character who looks a lot like actor Powers Boothe who played Cash Bailey in the movie EXTREME PREJUDICE, with a huge grin and sunglasses in a white cowboy hat and white Colonel Sanders suit, smoking a giant dog turd of a cigar while ogling some whorish looking waitresses dressed like  named Sleepy Whore, Dopey Whore, Grumpy Whore, Happy Whore, Sneezy Whore, Bashful Whore, Vindictive Whore, and Bible Whore. Sort of an adult D
