InCon Feast #ThursdayDoors

Last week, I posted doors and stuff from InConJunction fantasy and science fiction convention in Indianapolis. I had so many pictures, I saved the restaurant for this week.

We like to take our own food to events, but we didn’t have a microwave in our room and didn’t know if we would have a fridge, so we just had bagged and canned stuff. We coughed up some heavy change and ate at the hotel restaurant, which, don’t get me wrong, was worth every penny. GREAT food. But pricey.

So wouldn’t you know it, on Sunday somebody told us about this little slice of heaven just across the parking lot, well within walking distance. It’s called Lincoln Square, and there are many locations in Indy and vicinity.

Also GREAT food, very affordable, shareable portions, super service, and attractive decor. Didn’t photograph the food because it’s difficult to use the camera when you’re shoveling the vittles in with both hands. But I snapped some doors, which is really the point, isn’t it? Isn’t it?

Me being me, I think it’s hella funny that Lincoln SQUARE has so many ROUND windows.

This has been part of the Thursday Doors link-up hosted by Norm Frampton, photographer extraordinaire. Visit his site, enjoy his photographs, click on the blue frog (unless this is his two-week vacation), and enter a world of doors. If this IS his two-week vacation, just look at his old ones.

A PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Write about a restaurant.

I was born in Louisville, Kentucky, but now live in the woods in southern Indiana. Though I only write fiction, I love to read non-fiction. The more I learn about this world, the more fantastic I see it is.

    I like to bring my own food, too, but my husband loves to eat out, so we generally eat out at least one meal. Having fridges and microwaves in many motel/hotel rooms now is a real money-saver. A great grocery store often has good deals on prepared meals as well. Anyhoo…sounds like you had lots of fun and good food, too, so what’s not to like? 🙂

      We love everything about InConJunction and its hotel, janet! 🙂 And I love both eating out and bringing my own food, so I can’t go wrong. 😀

    I like your sense of humor. I agree that the round windows do seem *wrong* considering the name of the place. Still if the food is good… whatever.

      The food was hot, salty, and greasy, just like I was raised eating. I can imagine people saying, “Ugh! That food was so nasty! All greasy, and too much salt! Horrible! It came to the table hot, though, I’ll give them that.” lol

    Nicely done. I often forget to snap photos of food, so I feel better knowing that it happens to a foodie.

    Eating on the road is a challenge, for a variety of reasons.

      Sometimes I forget, sometimes the food tastes better than it looks. Usually, it’s because I forget. Eating on the road is a special challenge with one of the Per Bastet partners, because she’s gluten intolerant. Usually, everything on the menu is either breaded and fried or served on bread or both. Sometimes she orders a hamburger without the bun. Even fries are often floured before they’re fried. It is, as you say, a challenge.

    Thank you!
    Years ago I wrote about men who take their kids out for pancakes and lose their minds over the coatcheck girl and people were all like, “What kind of pancake restaurant has a coatcheck?!?” THIS ONE. FFS. Anyway, thank you. Glad you liked it 😛

      I don’t think this one had a coat check. If it did, I missed it. I’ll look, next year. It’s a crazy good restaurant!
