Gandy's, Olney, Texas
I discovered the greatest place to eat while driving through North Texas last fall. It is a little hole in the wall restaurant run by a married couple and it is absolutely fabulous. It is called "Gandy's" and is located in Olney, Texas (population three or four thousand!)The entire restaurant looks as if it could seat 20 or so; there is one cook and two waitresses, and the food is out of this world.
Their chicken fried steak is large enough to cover an entire plate, and no knife needed. It's that tender! They have homemade pies for dessert. The pie I had the day I was there was coconut cream pie, with meringue two inches high!
Everyone who came in seemed to know everyone else, and the atmosphere was one of a big family get together.
I live in Oklahoma, but have regularly made trips down to the little spot in the road called Olney to enjoy their food.
P. S. (Catfish fillet dinners on Friday nights are wonderful!)
