Our adventures along Route 66, celebrating the Mother Road’s Centennial, continued in July with a visit to Empire Slice House Tulsa 🍕 in Meadow Gold District | Route 66 in Tulsa, Oklahoma! This was somehow my first time there, and I was so impressed. You can buy pizzas whole or by the slice. Bernie and I loved the Midnight Cowboy 🤠 slice … it includes brisket and the yummiest BBQ sauce and will only be on the menu through the end of August. The pepperoni slice and garlic knots were also delicious. We needed something sweet and inquired about the Little Shondas - four no-bake cookies from the owner’s mama’s famous recipe … includes chocolate, peanut butter, coconut, & vanilla. Shonda definitely knew what she was doing when it comes to no-bake cookies! Yum!😋
All of this pizza consumption got us wondering how other people eat their slices. Do you eat it the “ladylike” way, like Bernie, cutting it with a fork and knife? Or do you just use the messy hands 🖐️ method, like me? Do you fold your slices? Is there a right way to do all of this? 🤣
All right, , we only have 5 months left in 2026 to explore food spots along Route 66! Where should the Route 66 Chics 🐥🐣 go next?
