NEXT EVENT! Food ‘n’ Fun North - Center Restaurant & Tavern, Muenster, TX, Saturday, August 9, 3:45pm

Click to Sign Up via Email.

Our Food 'n' Fun series of rallies to great and/or unique venues in the middle of nowhere continues. Our destination this time will be the Center Restaurant & Tavern in Muenster, TX, where we will have a German dinner. The town of Muenster was established as a German Catholic community in 1899 by Emil and August Flusche who made their careers as land agents. They wanted to name the settlement Westphalia after the German region located between the Rivers Rhine and Weser, but, upon finding out that there already existed a town by that name, instead opted for Muenster, after the capital of Westphalia, Germany. The Center was established in the fifties and has been a Muenster landmark ever since. The restaurant specializes in German food but also serves traditional Texas favorites such as burgers, chicken-fried steaks and fried catfish for those so inclined. How else does a restaurant survive in small-town Texas?  We will order from the menu and pay via separate checks.

 

The drive on country roads will be a fun way to get to a nice meal. As a new twist to our usual Food ‘n’ Funs, this time we will play a Word Rally to spice up the drive. The top 3 winners will get great prizes.

 

Signup and Fees:

We will charge an entry fee of $5 for each MBCA member and their immediate family members who wish to participate in the Word Rally. The fee will be used to fund the prizes and sundry expenses such as printing costs for maps and directions. Non-members who wish to play will be charged $10. You need not pay the fee if your are not participating in the rally but wish to enjoy the trip and the dinner.  Please register and send your entry fee as soon as possible so we can provide a good headcount to the restaurant. Make your check out to MBCA and send to DJ de Jesus, 4159 Charron Lane, Fort Worth, TX 76116. To book your spot, click here to email DJ de Jesus or call him at (817) 319-3033.

 

Meeting Place and Time:

By 3:45pm, park at the Joe’s Crab Shack on the SW corner of Western Center & I-35 (3040 Western Center Boulevard, Fort Worth - see map) then walk to the adjacent Starbucks where we will have a briefing in air-conditioned comfort. We depart at 4pm. We expect to arrive Muenster at about 6pm.
