    I should first point out that I have no interest in boxing, nor did I know who Larry Holmes was, until I moved to the area. We went to dinner here a few months ago, thinking the view would be nice on what was an unseasonably warm Spring day. There is plenty of parking, without having to worry about feeding meters.

    The wings were some of the smallest I've ever seen. We were joking that they must have come from pigeons. If you spend $8 for wings, you'd expect to get a little meat. She had the turkey club, which she described as slimy turkey on stale bread. I had the "Champ Burger" which was two greasy patties, cheese, LTO, with a pickle and pepper on the side. For $14, I was pretty disappointed.

    The "Champ" was present, and came over to our table to see how things were going, which seemed like a nice touch, until he made my "lady friend" uncomfortable. She made some excuse to go to the restroom so she could get out of the situation. With all the great dining options in Easton, there is absolutely no reason to go here, unless you are a boxing fan.

    This part is interesting because I had a woman with me as well, and what Larry said was to me and something to the effect of "Well who was the other woman you were here with last week." It was an OBVIOUS joke and I thought it was hilarious and we all laughed. Later though the girl I was with was upset about it. Like that was just so out of line and in poor taste. People are way too sensitive.

    Regardless, glad I got to visit the place and meet Larry. Glad he got rid of this dead business too. Restaurants are bank drainers. Can't believe Floyd hasn't opened one yet.
    Nice post I hope Larry still doing well.I know at one time he owned like half of Easton it seemed.

      He is definitely doing well. I read in his book he doesnt just own that restaurant he owns the entire plaza. Its called L&D Plaza for Larry & Dianne. City Council is one of his tenants. I have a pic of that too let me upload it.......

        Restaurants are horrible investments or businesses to run, they are a pain in the ass and hardwork, you have competition trying to squash you with negative reviews and have to keep up with competitive prices.

        If you want to invest in something like that just invest in property real estate and t
        Rent those suckers out.

        Luckily for larry he owns commerical property as well.
