| - It was about 5 o'clock in the morning and I had been up since about 4AM. I just flew back from Europe so my internal clock was still on European time. Where can you go for breakfast that early in the morning?
The answer is, of course, Denny's. Open 24/7. Classic American breakfast place. I think the first time I ate at Denny's was about 1978.
I grabbed a seat in a booth and ordered the classic American breakfast, the Original Grand Slam--two pancakes, two eggs sunny side up, two bacons, two sausages. It was exactly what I expected, the same as it has been since 1978. No reason change a good thing.
A lone waitress was running the whole place--greeting customers, taking orders, delivering the food, re-filling coffee, bussing tables and working the cash register. A busy gal, she was friendly and very efficient. Always on the ball with coffee re-fills.
Total damage was $11.40 including tax and tip. Good value. Like Arnold said. "I'll be back."
