Now, I don't discriminate against restaurants just because they're housed in say, a suburban strip mall. I have had excellent experiences at such places in the past. But sadly, Michael's does not belong to that list. Maybe this time I should have gone ahead and judged them by the strip mall factor.
I do, however, tend to judge a breakfast place by their bacon and hashbrown/homefries/whatever type of potato they serve as a side. Because it is truly hard to mess up eggs, I look to the bacon and spuds. As with any breakfast place, including my kitchen, and my mom's and your mom's....the eggs were just fine. The bacon, though. Oh GAWD. Nastiest, rubberiest, most tasteless bacon ever. I really wonder where they found this stuff. The homefries were ok, but pretty sure they were just the frozen bag Ore-Ida kind that have nothing really going on there.
Some of the lunch items on the menu looked kinda tasty, but I won't be back to try them. Sorry Mikey.
