| - Took the family to The Whip this evening for din din. We were seated immediately as the place wasn't full. I was expecting a long-standing establishment such as this to be busy on a Friday night. Our waitress was friendly and she quickly took our drink orders. I ordered a root beer and liver and onions for dinner, which came with a salad. Actually, I let my daughter order for me, and she chose liver and onions. It was pretty good...all liver tasting and such. I haven't had liver and onions since I was a kid, but it appeared to have been cooked well. It was a thin slice, I'll bet, because liver has a strong iron flavor. I finished it, but I probably won't let my daughter order liver and onions for me anywhere again. I'm hoping I got some kind of health benefit from it. I got a side of mashed potatoes, which came with gravy too. They were tasty.
No beer - bummer. The side salads could use a little sprucing up too. We sat next to the pay phone, which not only works, but they use it. There were at least two incoming calls while we were there that the waitress took while leaning over our booth. Interesting, but not unusual in a 76-year stronghold.
My family said their food was good. The meal went pretty quick, which was nice because we wanted to get home for the Cavs game! I'll be back to taste the pierogies.
