Donia, let me get the directions straight to Bourbon Mall. When I Google, Bourbon Mall is shown on the North side of 82, but from your directions, it sounds like I need to turn South from 82..........I will be traveling from Indianola...........thanks........

You can't miss it. It's at the junction of two roads in the middle of nowhere, one of them gravel. Look for an old country store with at least 30 vehicles there and a couple oc stretched limos-- one with coe horns on the hood.

Yes waterbound, it's south of 82. Just south of a little town called Tribett

Just before you get to Leland (1-2 miles) you will see a Texaco just across a bridge on the north side of 82 (there used to be a Borbon Mall bill board before the bridge), take a left (south) onto Tribbett Rd. (or at least that's what it used to be) and go and go and go a little more, you will see the lights and a sign (Mall will be on your left). Now if you want to go backroads, that may be a little trickier to explain, cause everybody has a different way and none of them are wrong. I don't know how many landmarks are left (Silver Bell, Kinlock Bridge, etc.)

... and yes, you HAVE to try the fried hot tamalies (sp). Everything is good on the menu, but you may spend a c note easily with tip if you belly up to the bar(s) and eat good. It is well worth it though.

It is not a Texaco, it's a Phillips 66. There is no billboard either. there may be a small homemade sign there. But it is SUPER EASY to find. The Phillips 66 is also called Fratesi's, you can't miss it. The road is DIRECTLY in front of Fratesi's, turn on it and drive, it is the only business your going to come to! Have fun!!

I figured it had probably changed, it used to be a Texaco when they first re-modeled it and it has been a couple of years since I've seen the billboard (now that I think about it), .
Sorry for the erroneous info waterbound. Pntailhntr, thanks for clearing it up.

No problem, didn't want anybody getting lost looking for a Texaco, and I live right behind the Conoco in Leland anyway and know the area like the back of my hand. If anybody has any questions about how to get somewhere around Leland/Greenville area, don't hesitate to ask!!!

Cicero's? I had me and 5 others get food poisoning there one night 2 years ago. Violent diarrhea and vomiting all night for all that ate there. There ain't enough tea in China to get me back in that place. The sonic down the street is better.

Wound-
Having been a restauranteer, I was wondering if you contacted Cicerno's and notified them of your experience? A reputable place should try to make monetary amends to you and at least have liability ins. for exactly this instance. With 5 of ya'll affected, they definitely had an obligation to try to placate you to some degree.

Do you ever hunt Lake Whittington or any of the oxbows on the Ark. side?

I think that gas station is closed.
If you get to the Budwieser plant on the left side of the road you have gone too far.
When you do make the left on Tribbet Rd the plant is off in the distance and in view.
Our waitress out there Sat night was a firecraker. Especially after a few cold ones and hanging out with dudes all day. :lol:

1dead. i contacted them to let them know. I am not the type of person that goes after money or anything like that. They didn't do it on purpose. It was an accident, and unfortunately I was affected by it.

Hole Hunter, You are right about the gas station is passed it after 7 at night or on Sunday. They close sort of early for a gas station and are never open on Sunday.

1dead, No, I've never hunted Whittington, you have to have a GOOD boat to get there this time of year as you have to go in by the river unless you know someone at the Outing Club and you can use there launch. The Boat Launches on the lake close during duck season to keep so many duck hunters off the lake, I have hunted Lake Lee and it's good at times, I've been wanting to head over to lake Ferguson to see I could find some there but just haven't. I haven't tried any oxbows over in Arkansas at all.
