Hooked on hotdogs

Hit the spot that hits the spot

The. Perfect. Lunch. Have you visited downtown LaGrange? It’s what, 2 miles from Bryant Lake. I just had two hotdogs, chips and a Coke at my favorite lunch spot. Mmm, pickles. Green things rock!

If you relish the perfect hotdog, hamburger, chicken salad or grilled cheese sandwich, you must have lunch at Charlie Joseph’s. It’s an old school, family-run lunch counter with stools that spin, cool stuff on the walls and friendly people. (And no fish sandwiches on the menu, thankyouverymuch.)

So, here’s the secret recipe…for the perfect afternoon:

  • Pop into the Bryant Lake Downtown Sales Center (You can get a flyer with the easy-as-pie directions to Bryant Lake.)
  • Walk across the Square (Hello, Mr. Lafayette Statue.) to Charlie Joseph’s diner.
  • Enjoy The. Perfect. Lunch. (Speaking of pie – have some!)
  • Drive over to Bryant Lake and tour the decorated model homes.

Tasty. Fun. Beautiful. Look for me at the lake. If you don’t see me right away, it just means I’m sleeping off a big lunch!
