You Texas boys still got Catfish Kitchen Diners down there?When I was working in Houston,I used to frequent a Catfish Kitchen.They had a bunch of fish items on the menu,,you could pick any three items,,and eat all you wanted.They had frog legs on the menu,,and that's all I would eat.I LOVE frog legs.They hated seeing me walk in cause I could murder a wheel barrel of frog legs in one sitting.They would try to throw sides at me like fries and hushpuppys to fill me up,,but I said no thanks,,,just keep them frog legs coming!!!! Hahahaaaa

I'd prolly have never tried catfish at a restaurant if all of em had frog legs on the menu!
The local catfish specialist is at Clear Springs TX just outside of New Braunfels and there is a German butcher shop down the road 1/4 mile. I never mind stopping for either on of those places

Yes, still there and the it's still as you describe. There is another place close to Houston called the BBQ Inn. It's been there at least from the 60's. If your in the area, you would not be disappointed. https://thebarbecueinn.com/You Texas boys still got Catfish Kitchen Diners down there?When I was working in Houston,I used to frequent a Catfish Kitchen.They had a bunch of fish items on the menu,,you could pick any three items,,and eat all you wanted.They had frog legs on the menu,,and that's all I would eat.I LOVE frog legs.They hated seeing me walk in cause I could murder a wheel barrel of frog legs in one sitting.They would try to throw sides at me like fries and hushpuppys to fill me up,,but I said no thanks,,,just keep them frog legs coming!!!!

You can’t go wrong with fried frog legs!! Excellent. Sounds like if this gang got together we could do a job on a mountain of frog legs.

Growing up in Arkansas I caught many frogs and enjoyed fried frog legs. Some 30 years later while attending a seminar in New York City I ordered fried frog legs. I don't know what that restaurant did to them but they tasted awful.

Many of them come from China. If you look at the package at the store, it states that. You can’t go wrong with fried frog legs!!

Some of the best frog legs I ever ate were lunch at a manufacturer I was surveying in Red China. They served us BBQed frog legs for lunch. I have no idea what all kind of spices and sauce they used on them but they were great.
As a kid, I would take the .22 to the pond and kill a mess, whack the legs off and Mom would fry them up for supper. They were fine eating too.

Leftlane, you anywhere near Roosevelt or Junction? Just saw Hill Country of Texas for your location. I'm not Leftlane but I am not far from Junction (26 miles) or Roosevelt (40) miles. My great grandfather came to Kimble County in1876 from Bandera County. Leftlane is a transplant that lives down around New Braunfels, I think. I never heard of that catfish diner in the OP but a lot of us Texas country boys don't frequent big cities The best frog legs I ever ate was at Ma Crosby's in Acuna, Mexico

Kimble County in 1876 was still keep an eye peeled for Comanches and Comancheros era. Your great grandpap was no sissy.
