New Friends & The Lambert's Cafe

Since I have been thinking of going on the road , I have read the workamper forums on the internet to hear from people who do live and work on the road and to get their advice.

since I have been reading this forum one name was there answering questions on all different topics. His name is jungle jim and his wife pnut. They have given advice on over 1000 topics.

Since I needed advice on lots of subjects, like how to get a job, what can we pull the car and motorcycle with. Where we can stay cheap while waiting for our job in montana. Mr Jungle jim was there answering all those questions.

Well, since we were here in Missouri and he and his wife was up the road about an hour from here. We decided it would be nice to meet a workamper and get some of his sage advice. So Leigh and I went to Ozark, Missouri to meet this couple. Well, they were the nicest couple and after talking to them Leigh and I felt like we knew them forever. They answered all our question and then they took us to the most awesome place to eat.

Lambert's cafe, home of the throwed rolls. The throwed rolls is just that. They take these fresh homemade rolls still hot from the oven and throw them to you from across the room. you just raise your hands and they throw a roll at you.

The decor was rustic with signed dollar bills all over the walls and balloons on the wooden booths. They was license plates from every state, flags of every sort on the walls.

The food was a southern fare . Some of they special was fried chicken, chicken & biscuits, meatloaf, hamburger Steak, chicken livers, chicken fried steak. You get 2 sides with your meal but they have this thing called pass-arounds. Pass-arounds are things like fried okra,fried potatoes and onions,macaroni and tomatoes,black eyed peas,and the famous rolls and sorghum. Sorghum is a molasses based syrup that you put on your rolls. So needless to say you don't go hungry on this place.

I had chicken livers, turnip greens and mashed potatoes and gravy. Leigh had hamburger steak smothered with gravy, bell peppers, mushrooms, fresh onions and tomatoes. This steak was a full pound. If you like southern food you would be in your glory here. The food was the best I have ever tasted. I thought I was in heaven. The rolls alone was to die for.

So if you are ever in Ozark, Missouri we must stop at Lambert's cafe of of Route 65 and enjoy the experience of your life.
