The Grill was located at 316 third St. SW… The Grill was a part of the
area known as “High Third” although it
did not have the reputation of some of the other businesses on Third St. Dee Dee Govan operated The Grill for many
years. He acquired the property from “Ma” Butler, a legend on Third Street and
the subject of another article. Dee Dee served pretty good food and at times would offer coffee laced with
liquor, if so desired. After the decline of Third St. The Grill was home to Dee
Dee’s Hot Tamales. He made them, packaged them and sold them out of The Grill.
I was offered a job by Dee Dee selling the Hot Tamales when I was
driving truck for Coca Cola Bottling back in the late 60’s.
