Hawg Heaven is the place I am missing the most not being there. It is very small, so they may only be doing takeout, but its worth it, even if you have to eat in the car. :)

Opalescent Glass is definitely worth the tour, as is Grissom AFB.

Also, I hear there's a pretty good race track on the northwest corner. ;)

Yes you are correct about Hawg Heaven! I also forgot Jays Thai is great too! I’m sure I will think of more or feel free to add to my list!

We ate here during Sprint Week and it was really good. They were open for dine in but maybe had 10 tables total. Definitely worth the stop.

We ate at Choo Choo McGoos today. Good food and we walked out stuffed. Only complaint was only one wearing mask in there was one waitress, but it's been like that everywhere in Kokomo except Walmart even though there are signs saying it is required everywhere.

Jerry, where would you say is the best for steaks? Thank you to Josh and yourself for all the info!

Best place for a steak ? Choo choos or Windmill Grill I'm being dead serious as they go to a place that sells the best steaks available, They don't buy in bulk and freeze they are as fresh as possible Today at Choo Choos they have a couple steaks on the special plus the sponsor Dave Darland

where is the best place to go for some biscuits and gravy or hotcakes?

streetglider 8/29/20 1:50 AM

Omeletti’s or Windmill grill both have good breakfast and are only 5 minutes from the track.

Thank you. I’ll choose the sponsor of any race car! The Breakfast House was a good and very low priced breakfast this morning also!
