Norma's



Norma's Cafe, as the sign says, has been an Oak Cliff landmark since the 50s.  They serve good home made cooking that will fill you up.  There are many old photographs of Oak Cliff on the walls and many regulars in the chairs.  It has been said that Lee Harvey Oswald ate breakfast here before heading out to kill Kennedy.  Oh wait I need to add ALLEGEDLY kill Kennedy.  My friend James pointed that fact out recently.  I regret to say that personally I have only eaten there a few times.  Not sure why my parents never took us there growing up or why my friends and I did not go there when I was a teen.  I believe this sign was damaged in a tornado in the 90s so it is not the original one.  Personally I am very glad Norma's is still there. :-)
