One would assume that it is in the location where Mom's was before it moved to it's current location. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MtnMama 1,405 Posted January 29 Report Share Posted January 29 I am going to make a wild guess here and suggest that you are talking about the Maskaras Clinic building. Maybe one of the offices inside the gated area near the Chapala Bridge Club? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daisy2013 291 Posted January 29 Author Report Share Posted January 29 It was strange walking in there where we use to eat. She is definitely there on Thursdays, and twice monthly at LCS Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daisy2013 291 Posted January 29 Author Report Share Posted January 29 We are talking about where Mom’s Deli use to be before the present location. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RickS 2,115 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 .... I guess us old timers know where Mom's USED TO BE and that it was not always on the corner where it is now. BUT, just a few steps to the east. Sort of close to Maskaras Clinic but certainly not IN the clinic. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ellie 115 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 Actually Mom's used to be, for old timers, by Puritan Poultry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lexy 466 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 This is probably the most comically confusing posting I've seen in a long time. But I understood it all, having lived here such a long time and still love Mom's. Mostlylost just saved the day in words and pictures. Lexy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ellie 115 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 Yes, it was and Puritan kind of shared the space. Can't remember the exact configuration but May Collins and daughter Camille moved to the Maskaras location and then to the location now. Long time lakeside family and son Rod started Lagunanet - which the the first internet service (dial up) in addition to TelMex. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paul, who started Puritan Poultry where Bellon is now in SAT with his understudy Jose (Joe), then moved to the present location of Puritan Poultry in Riberas. Paul then expanded the business to fried chicken and other items and Mae Collins was an employee of his. When Paul retired, is when the mother and daughter Collins moved to their first location in the strip of locales adjacent to the Maskaras Clinic. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I think Mae and daughter and a couple other employees quit Puritan to start Mom's as they thought they had a better concept. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OK, I will. There wasn´t any problem between Paul and Mae, other than he wanted to retire (just like a lot of older folks). Joe wasn´t interested in the restaurant/deli side of the business and just wanted to concentrate on selling poultry and supplemental supplies. Yes, a couple of the restaurant employees went with her as she and they were not needed for or wanted to cut up chickens. Just a simple case of people splitting up and going separate ways, not that anyone thought anyone was better than the other. Just a case of doing what you are comfortable with. 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Puritan guy opened up the other side to food. And there was a lady (now I know that she was Mae Collins) that seemed to run it. But didn't think it was called Mom's until the move east to the Maskaras clinic area. THEN it was called Mom's. Thanks, 39, for clarifying all of that.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, 39, for clarifying all of that.... Dead right!!! They used to sell the chickens on the west side where it became a sit down area and the kitchen was behind the poultry counter. Joe later moved the fresh poultry counter to the middle area of the building. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
