• The heart stopping BLT sandwich was huge, and had a ton of bacon. Very Good! by Skinney Fri 07/06/2012 12:00 AM Dothan, AL Joined Jul 2012 4 Posts 4 Restaurant Visits

  Can you handle the Malt Milkshake Challenge? All you have to do is drink 5 malt shakes in 30 minutes or less! As seen on Travel Channel?s Man v. Food Nation.

  Best BLT (86 the T) and chocolate shakes EVAR. You will need a good pair of trainers to hit the pavement and work off that extra ass you acquired, but well worth it.

  This is a St. Louis landmark since 1913. This place makes its own candy. The milkshakes are made the old-fashioned way & there's a BLT Sandwich that's loaded with large amounts of bacon.
• Jaes O.
  You cannot go wrong with the BLT!
• Steve P.
  The fresh banana malt is a classic!
