C.W. Porubsky Grocery and Meats - Topeka Historical Restaurant

Since 1947, C.W. Porubsky Grocery and Meats has lain across the railroad tracks in the Little Russia district of Topeka, Kansas. While not mentioned in the name, there is an attached 30 seat tavern where customers can enjoy beer and the delicatessen food.

Railroad workers stop their vehicles on the tracks and walk over to Porubsky for lunch
Porubsky has amazing horseradish pickles, superb chili in season, and big plump deli sandwiches. Meals are only served 11 AM - 2 PM, but the grocery is open 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM Monday through Friday (closes at 3 PM on Saturday). Not everyone likes the hot horseradish pickles, but those that do, love them and stock up whenever they visit.

Porubsky is best known for the chili, but it can be a little difficult to get. Chili is only prepared from the day after Labor Day, until late Spring. The Porubsky family doesn't want too many people coming in for the chili on the busiest grocery days (Friday & Saturday) and crowding out the local customers, so chili is only made Monday through Thursday. 

Various map services do not agree on the local street names and it can be a little tricky getting here. The Yahoo map which we have posted below agrees with the actual street signs. NE Sardou Avenue does something very strange in this neighborhood.

C.W. Porubsky Grocery and Meats does not take credit cards.


Rise and shine cooks in the kitchen chow is on the line

Pictures say a thousand words.....these say a million.

Steamboat Springs Colorado

This is my first time to Steamboat Springs Colorado. I've been coming to Colorado since I was 3 years old and most summers all the way through high school. When I worked as a shopping mall developer working for the Macerich company I lived in Boulder and Greeley two different times in my career.

I've never experienced Colorado in the way I am right now. It's got me thinking about the state in this community in a way that I've never thought of before. I definitely could see myself owning a place out here and enjoying this area for the rest of my life.

At the same time it makes me think about special people that I've known and that I know in my life that I have similar feeling that now I'm craving over Steamboat Springs Colorado. I'm feeling today the true essence of what traveling is all about open up your mind to expand your horizons and make you think about life in a way that you never have before. I've been fortunate over my lifetime to have traveled so much and have it intertwined with business deals.

I can see a bright future doing business in the steamboat area in Colorado overall. I can see a bright future for the travel log blog to exploring Colorado the beautiful scenery sites and future movies. I totally hammered my Facebook page today with all sorts of movies from flying out here and scenery and plus some of the real estate deals that Bob has here in Steamboat.

I'm sitting out on the back porch enjoying a full moon a moon seem so big it's like I've never seen the moon before. It's really fun when you have those moments in life when you face crossroads and intersections and then you can connect with the universe and know that these changes are so good for you lifelong changes. As far as this post goes I'm just basically using voice recognition on my phone and right now I'm almost too lazy to go back and prove it so whatever is getting down on paper right now you know just relax if the verbiage and perfect I'll fix it later.

One of the nice things about being Henry McClure is I definitely am not perfect I live in a glass house and I am full of flaws at the same time I've got a big smile on my face and full of enthusiasm and enjoying this business trip and having some fun to enjoy new scenery new sights and meeting new people.

In my world this is heaven; there is one thing missing and if that special someone to share with I know someone who loves Colorado and would love to be in Colorado. I know someone who is going through a lot in their life is stressful in I've made it my business to help that person and always always my intentions were to do good.

This is just the beginning this is just the start of a whole new life I feel like a kid again and it's awesome. Get outside right now and check out that Full Moon.

Next month we have a new moon another full moon and history will be made the same amount of full moons in one year won't take place again for 400 years.

You can't make this shit up.
