J & W Grill – Chickasha, OK
Please note: Between last night’s barbecue and this morning’s onion burger, there was a simple breakfast burrito. Don’t worry, faithful followers – we did NOT skip a meal. The other place mentioned by the reception desk at the hotel in Oklahoma City (OKC) was Nic’s Grill – a place I had on my itinerary […]
