| - Eclectic diner.. I've never seen fried plantains as a burger option before! We stopped by the first time just because we were driving by and were amused by the name. My husband had the Bulgogi sandwich and it was amazing! (yes, I tasted it). I got their schnitzel but asked if they could serve it on a bun, like I'm used to having back home in the midwest (called a tenderloin sandwich there). The sandwich came with a fried egg (forgot that was part of the schnitzel meal) but I dumped that off and proceeded to fix up my sandwich. While the seasonings were more schnitzel than tenderloin, it was a quality cut of meat and I was happy with it.
The 2nd time we went there was because of their menu.. hubby was curious about the Devil Dog and had to have it. Turns out you get TWO of them in an order, which is almost obscene.. obscene because a Devil Dog is a hot dog wrapped in bacon and deep fried. Yes, deep fried. No breading, but still crunchily fried up. Hubby loved it.. personally, not to my tastes... must be mostly a guy thing. I had a cup of their soup of the day (and it's a huge mug of soup) which was clam chowder.. and the soup was excellent. It came with half a sandwich, and I chose grilled cheese. You can choose from a long list of cheeses and breads to make your dream grilled cheese, I chose American and Provolone on Sourdough.. and it was probably THE best grilled cheese sandwich I've ever had.
Third time I was there, I took a friend. She ordered the Monte Cristo (ham & cheese sandwich that is breaded, deep fried, then sprinkled with powdered sugar) - she said it was good. I got a burger, prepared simply, and was going to get basic American cheese on it when the owner convinced me to try it with Havarti.. it was a fantastic choice, and it was a nice greasy/juicy, tasty cheeseburger.
Not sure what I'll get on my next trip.. but there will definitely be a next trip. Oh, they only serve breakfast and lunch, they close at 3pm.. only drawback that I've found so far.
