edgecombe co has the 2nd highest unemployment in the state...i did a project for class there and its pretty poor`

3/18/2009 11:05:37 AM

Speaking of Edgecombe County...I went to a wedding in Pinetops last year that was followed by a reception at the country club. I had no idea that place would actually have a country club, but it was actually pretty nice.

3/18/2009 11:08:57 AM

well, the handful of rich folks who are supported by all those poor folks have to have somewhere to hang out away from the common trash

3/18/2009 11:10:03 AM

downtown tarboro is pretty i think

3/18/2009 11:17:22 AM

While I'm sure some people make their fortunes off the hard work of others I'd guess that most of the wealthy people in that area are either living off old money or their own hard work with very little reliance on the poor people. That's part of the reason the unemployment rate is so high. There isn't much of a self-sustaining economy to create a distinguishable middle class.

1) Dixie Queen Seafood in Winterville. Best seafood EVER. I kid you not.
http://www.mytravelguide.com/restaurants/profile-32448505-United_States_North_Carolina_Winterville_Dixie_Queen_Seafood_Restaurant_Inc.html

2) Mongolian Empire on Greenville Blvd. Its one of the buffet places where you fill your bowl with whatever meats,veggies, and sauces you want and they cook it for you. Like Crazy Fire, but much much better.

4) If you've never been to one hit up an Andy's, its a small burger/cheesteak chain that started up in Goldsboro, NC. There are a few around Greenville.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=andy%27s&sll=35.579892,-77.377589&sspn=0.006003,0.009656&ie=UTF8&ll=35.587213,-77.37761&spn=0.024011,0.038624&t=h&z=15&iwloc=A

5) Cubbie's...basically the same kind of place as Andy's.

6) They also have a Ham's downtown. Ham's is a small chain that actually started in Greensboro, but they seem to be a lot more prevalent in Eastern NC than around here. Best loaded cheese fries and home made potato chips in the world.

andy's has gone downhill. i still eat there every once in a while, but i remember it being so much better when there was just the one or two in goldsboro

3/18/2009 12:30:33 PM

quick update: I've gone to B's bbq and King's. IMO, B's is better. I'm planning to hit up Wilber's soon.

kind of in that they sell hamburgers/hotdogs. cubbies is way better.

B's is a definite must, be there early-ish to make sure you get food (definitely on sat.)

daily grind is indeed very overrated imho

trade mart on 10th st(right off evans) early morning for awesome cheese biscuits

finelli's for italian food

i was always a fan of b's, ended up working just down the road from kings at an architecture firm one summer and would go there fairly regularly - its good, but it doesnt come close to b's

[Edited on April 9, 2009 at 10:37 PM. Reason : kings]

4/9/2009 10:36:47 PM

^^^don't waste your time at wilber's. goldsboro is actually a great place for bbq, but not there. it used to be great, but it's gone to shit. don't judge goldsboro's bbq after eating there. instead, go to stonewall's in hood swamp on a saturday.

i really don't like andy's anymore. every time i go there there's more and more pepper on the burger and it's at least 80% black pepper now. i do like steamed buns but it's not worth it.

4/30/2009 3:27:38 PM

^^they look more like this:

4/30/2009 3:45:18 PM

I used to work at Andy's, and I would eat there all the time. The burgers were good as hell and from what I understood, marginally healthy.

I haven't eaten at one in a long time though, they changed the type of meat for the burgers and it wasn't as good anymore.

4/30/2009 3:57:52 PM

marginally healthy? they're burgers cooked on a greasy griddle...

4/30/2009 3:59:21 PM

Not when I cooked them

4/30/2009 4:02:27 PM

^^ My guess is that they're slightly less fatty than the absolute cheapest ground beef available.

"Rocky Mount, North Carolina - Old Man In Tree An Old Man's Face is carved into a tree at battle Park in Rocky Mount (not a Monkey Face, as reported earlier). Located beside the supports of an old bridge on the trail through Battle Park. You have to park your car at one of the picnic areas, then walk downstream on the paved walkway until you come to a pier that has old bridge supports located on both sides of the river. To your right on the pier is a tree with a carving of an old man's face with a ring through his nose. This may have been for tying up a boat at one time. The old man's face has been on the tree for as long as I can remember. It is over 30 years old, maybe older. [Chip Little, 05/17/2006]"

Going where at night; Battle Park or Madison St? Both are super sketchy.

Don't forget RR's other claim to fame...That guy who called the cops because people were stealing his weed every night. I feel bad for that dude though. He told them he would die without it and then he did die less than a month later.

Need to put together a list of sweet things to do around Atlantic Beach/Emerald Isle/Harkers Island etc in a couple of weeks. Staying at Atlantic Beach. Don't mind doing some driving or spending some cash.
- Spend an afternoon on Bear Island
- Big Rock Tournament in Beaufort
- Take a ferry or paddle to Shackleford Banks
- Get crunk on the beach at Atlantic Beach
- ?
