Brother's was my favorite chicken place. Your favorite restaurant places are the constants in your life as you get older and try to remain cool. I just got over Chip's on Cole being closed.
Some things about Brothers stick out in my mind: The friendly saleslady with the candy-colored car always made sure you had enough seasoning on the fries, and always cooked new chicken for you if there were only a couple of pieces left. The best cherry limeade in the city. The peppers that were ridiculously hot.
Gone are the picnics with Brothers chicken my wife and I used to have at Exall Park. The memories.
Remember the withdrawal we all suffered when they closed for a while when a car drove through the front of the store? I felt your pain. The time they were down to 'wings only' for two weeks when they got a great review in the paper...I was right there with you.
I am depending on Brothers to re-open somewhere else in the future. There's always hope.
All the cool spots are closing one by one.

What the hell man? I just had Brothers for the first time last month. I got it hot our of the fryer, it burned my mouth and was still good. Dang this is a shame Mike D.
Oh man, Mike. What are we going to do? I'm terrified to think about what weill be next.
I live in the neighborhood where Brothers Chicken was.Though I can understand that they will be missed.I saw them on tv and they said they closed because of the economy and the low income area.I was somewhat offended because I guess they forgot that the "low income" people in this area were here and buying their product before their big write up in the Observer and even when the employees were rude.The chicken was good,but Churches Chicken is only a block away and they appreciate the diversity of the clientele!
Too many east Dallas places closing the doors right now. It's a bummer.
