| - Here I am sitting, sitting in my living room in San Diego, when I notice that my father has just checked in at Honey Hut. I literally gasped out loud in jealousy.
I grew up going to Honey Hut. My family lived in Hudson, and would make the 40 minute drive on a pretty regular basis during season. Even after they started opening other locations, like the one in Brecksville, the State Rd location remained our favorite spot. There's just something about the walk up counter, the old picnic tables out front, even the brick road in front of the parking lot. What a perfect way to spend a summer evening.
Honey Hut is more of a comfort food to me than a bowl of soup is to a sick person. A couple times when I was home from college visiting my parents, I actually loaded a cooler full of ice and Honey Hut and then drove as fast as my car would let me to get back to North Carolina before it all melted completely. Whenever I bring out-of-towners to Cleveland, a stop at Honey Hut is always on the agenda. I've even been known to wait a week before flying out to Cleveland, just to make sure Honey Hut was open. If they ever decide to expand their franchise, I'd be happy to open a location wherever I happen to be living at the time :)
