“Bangin, would eat again. Ya dig?“

“I got there early in the morning. I think my server was Rebecca from my recipe. I was tired and hungry from doing a lot of driving and had a few hours of driving left. But, I wasn’t expecting my Big Steak Omelette to be bigger than the picture in the menu! And, it was sooooo good that I ate the whole thing instead of taking half of it back home with me! The server was just so kind, and made sure I had enough coffee, cream, and sugar. She told me of some health issues. And, I hope she she’s alright till the night time I ever get down there. Though I was the only customer there at the time, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Thank you.“
