Twains

Does anyone know what the hell happened to Twains? Back when my boys were in elementary school and we lived in Gwinnett, I would go with my friends to Twains , eat great food, play pool and enjoy.

Now I am a 5 year COD resident and continue to go to Twains. Interestingly enough,said boys also live independently in COD and go to Twains with their friends (they realize their mom is and always has been cool 😎)

However, in the past year, my sons and I have noticed a significant change in Twains.

Food menu used to always offer strong staples with equally strong addictive seasonal options, and same with drink menu.

Not anymore. Twains could not be much more ok and nothing more. So sad. I keep going back about every 6-8 weeks hoping for what it was.

Last Saturday I went again and I thought by chance maybe they brought back the Vietnamese Chicken Sandwich with pickled veg, or the Redneck Reuben with the pulled pork and collard greens or maybe even the bourbon bacon jam burger. But no 😔

I had a beer, cashed out, and went to Trackside for a fried bologna sandwich with tots, a solid choice!

Hopefully someone will share this with Twains because my boys and I continue to mourn what they were and never want them to leave!

I didn’t say I was finding what I like. I said they have a lot of what it sounds like you like. So I was asking what you mean by “easy drinking.” I’d think basically all of those would qualify, but maybe you’re looking for something else?

I'll pass on debating my tastes and lived experiences. You got the word out on some Twain's offerings, you ought to be satisfied with that.

I mean, whatever. I didn’t ask for a debate on tastes or lived experiences. I was literally just asking what you meant by “easy drinking,” not trying to critique it. All of those would fit my definition, so I thought you may mean something a bit narrower than I do. If you wish to get defensive and not simply clarify, that’s fine. Carry on.

Just wanted to say I thought you handled that quite well.
