I've been in Madison for 10 days or so and I've made this observation: Madison residents are spoiled rotten! ROTTEN! There is nothing like Monty's back home in Boston. I dare all you haters visit its counterpart in Boston, the South Street Diner. Have a meal there and report back to me. I will have a hankie ready to wipe away your tears of disappointment.
At Monty's today, I accidentally dumped sugar all over my french fries. Even though I'm clearly a stupid klutz, they gave me new fries anyway. My chocolate malt was perfect. Once I slurped it all up, I felt a little sad...and then I discovered there was ANOTHER malt waiting for me and I felt like a winner!
And believe it or not, I'm a connoisseur of vegetarian reubens. I've tried them all over the country in CA, RI, MA, CT, NY and Monty's in the best I've ever had.
