| - Hey, this place was not all that bad!
After an early trip to the airport and a stop at Mom's, DD and I wanted some breakfast. Mom suggested 5 & Diner, but you must know by now that I really don't care for that place. I suggested Crepe Bar or Bagel Man, but Mom didn't want to drive all over town. So then she suggested Waffle House.
I have been to exactly one Waffle House before and it was when I was in Georgia. I think. Or Tennessee. It was really not memorable.
Today I ordered the Cheesesteak Omelet. It was actually quite good. It came with hashbrowns that were delicious and perfectly cooked. It also came with raisin toast (which DD promptly stole off my plate), I was only able to finish half of the omelet, even though I was pretty darn hungry. I washed it all down with a fountain Coke that was near perfect (a rarity these days).
DD ordered a waffle with bacon. The first round of bacon the kitchen sent out was so badly scorched that it crumbled when she tried to pick it up. When we asked for a replacement, it was out in seconds. The waitress was on top of everything.
Mom ordered biscuits and gravy, which she said was decent. But for $3, decent was a good review.
I would have liked to see a little more cleanliness in the restaurant, but I notice EVERYTHING. For example, the Tabasco had something stuck to the bottle and the floor under the counter was caked in dust. Everything else was pretty tidy.
I'd come here again if I had to choose between this place and 5 & Diner, but I wouldn't make it a top priority.
