I've had breakfast there. Food is good but it gets awfully crowded. Good to see that the place is still around because so much of the area has changed in recent years.
Aside from the weather, it's the biggest news today in Lake Wobegone.

Is it true that as a customer that you are asked to move down the countertop multiple times during a meal? If so, that's really cool!

I’d pass on that one, lolDMac wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 10:07 am Right up my alley, I'd have to see that in person, doesn't look too appealing in a picture but maybe better in person.
Not seeing that as a huge great bargain though, bananas are crazy cheap.
Have you seen this thing? I think it's pretty cool.

Never heard of BLT on rye.DMac wrote: ↑Mon Aug 21, 2023 6:33 pm Tough to beat a BLT, prefer mine on white bread (good bread) not toasted.
Never had raw corn, gonna have to give it a try although I do very much
like the melted butter and salt (little heavy on the salt too).

No way that corn isn't good with bacon fat on it, never had it that way but it sounds good.ardilla secreta wrote: ↑Tue Aug 22, 2023 6:08 pmDMac wrote: ↑Mon Aug 21, 2023 6:33 pm Tough to beat a BLT, prefer mine on white bread (good bread) not toasted.

I tried some different rolls this year, like brioche, but good toasted white bread (Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse white) I find works best. The raspy surface of toast helps keep the tomatoes from sliding off and from falling apart.
On corn, I remember in my childhood our family coming home late from a trip with some corn from my paw paws garden. Mom boils up some corn for a late meal, but we’re out of butter. No problem, we just used rendered bacon fat from the griddle. Mmm mmm, bacony corn. It was actually quite good.
On corn 1.b, I now steam my corn. 5 minutes. Much better than boiling.
The best way to steam corn? Insult it’s mother!
You can also husk it, season it to your liking and roast it in foil in the oven, and if you want another level....broil it for quick browning.DMac wrote: ↑Wed Aug 23, 2023 1:16 pmNo way that corn isn't good with bacon fat on it, never had it that way but it sounds good.ardilla secreta wrote: ↑Tue Aug 22, 2023 6:08 pmDMac wrote: ↑Mon Aug 21, 2023 6:33 pm Tough to beat a BLT, prefer mine on white bread (good bread) not toasted.

Price Chopper bakery around here makes really good bread. I hadn't ever heard of it but they
make a Peasants Bread, big loaf on sale for $2.99 every couple of weeks or so, it's outstanding
for BLTs....fresh tomato from the garden is a real difference maker too.
Corn is absolutely outstanding when soaked in a bucket of water for a couple of hours then tossed
on a fire. Cooks pretty quickly, ya gotta figure that's steamed. Gotta say that's the best way
I've had corn.
