| - I took my out of town guest to the Arrowhead Chompie's since she had never eaten at a jewish deli. She had the corned beef sliders and home fries and ate every bite. I had my favorite, the Hollandaise covered eggs, swiss cheese, and fried, corned beef hash on potato pancakes. YUM! I wish the waitress was around more so I could have reminded her sooner that I had ordered apple sauce.
I had told her at the beginning that I would be ordering something to take home. She remembered and asked for my take out order half way through our meal. The mushroom, beef, and barley soup came fast & she included sliced, toasted bagels (their usual soup go-with). When I asked for the check, it came promptly.
Then I led my friend into temptation, the bakery section. First, you see special salads and cream cheeses and sliced meat and fish and bread and bagels. Then, around the corner, tastebud heaven. Cakes, eclairs, cookies, fudge brownies, oh my. Two tall cases filled with impossible choices. The counter help let us know that at 3 pm one of the cases would go half price. He made us wait every minute of the time, though. It seemed like he had a long day. He had more energy and a better attitude the next week.
