Memories
of good
restaurants cling to everyone, triggered by simple smells, quick visual
flashes, some notes of music. Maybe sautéed onions with bacon bring
back
that little Mom and Pop place near the childhood home.
Or, is it the
exquisite fresh baking bread
that reminds one of a marvelous place by a favorite coffee shop? The oldies on
radio summon up a summer vacation when there were many summers to come.
Whatever the sense might be, everybody identifies with a familiar place locked in the
memories of good places or unique experiences.
What about a remote
place, located in the middle of a desert wasteland? And, if that restaurant has an unusual name,
would you stop there?
RoadKill Café,
504 W. Highway 66, Seligman, Arizona, is such a place. “Unique” isn’t adequate to describe this
place.
Their motto is: "You Kill It, We Grill It!"
Located on Route 66
just off Freeway , the town of Seligman, AZ, has kept its old West and
small town flavor.
The menu offers many fine entrees, such as "Splatter Platter",
Deer Delectables, Bad Brake Steak,
Fender Tender, Caddie Grilled patty,
Swirl of Squirrel,
Big Bagged Stag, Highway Hash,
Almost-Crossed-the-Road-Chicken, and other delights.***
These offerings have not been collected off the road. That's the vultures' jobs. They eat heartily, picking the bones.
Eat up, folks!
