    This is truly like sitting down to Sunday dinner after church. Only, in this case, you get to sit with a new family each time you go there. I highly recommend eating there as I do whenever I’m in Sweetwater. Truly a treat!

      You don't have to be "a man of God" to treat everyone equal. We aetheists are perfectly capable of that too...

    My brother lives in Sweetwater and my sister goes there all the time and ALWAYS eats at Allen's. I never thought it looked like anything special from the outside. She's tried multiple times to bring me to try out the food and have the experience, but I cannot bring myself to break bread with complete strangers, especially strangers from a place like Sweetwater. Maybe when I'm older

      You sound like a real asshole! Bet strangers wouldn't want to eat next to you. Thirty years from now, when you are 'older', you will just be an older asshole.
