I loved the Food and it was worth the wait. I've gone to much more expensive restaurants and had horrible food, so this food was cheep for the quality.

This installment of "Cheap Eats for Big Appetites" is brought to you by

Oh Lordy, I am stucking fuffed!!!

Ever since we saw the recent post about the 2 for 1 burger special here the Missus has been bugging me to go, and what the Missus wants, the Missus gets, so we done went and got ourselves into the minivan and scurried down the road to satiate our cravings.

I have to admit, I am so totally in love with this joint, from this classic 50s decor and music playing in the background to the quintessential american diner fare offered it is like stepping into a different time and place and I really dig it Daddy-o.....

This was the kinda place that 1970s me would hang out eating a giant platter of fries in gravy when I was skipping school and hanging around with my hooligan friends, just don't tell my parents, they still have no idea.

We opted for the aforementioned special because you have to remember that besides my many other endearing qualities I am above all....really freaking cheap! And all that grub (waaay too much for the two of us) for only $13.99 is an incredible deal.

I had a hankering for one of their legendary milkshakes so I had one in chocolate, oh god it was so absofreakinglutely delicious and thick! It's a good thing that it comes with a spoon because if you tried to finish it with the straw your head would implode and that would make it infinitely more difficult to drive home.

Although we both enjoyed our meals after putting forth our best efforts we were forced to raise the white flag and surrender, I am pretty sure that 1985 me could have put most if not all of it away but 2019 me could not, not even close...

So 2 burgers (added cheddar to mine), 2 massive piles of fries, a milkshake, and a bottle of lemonade with tax came to under 25 bucks....way bueno dude.

So if you are old and in the mood for a blast from the past, or young and want to see how we lived before smartphones and sushi took over the world then give them a try.

+2 because no, I don't think that I could eat like this every day but we had a really good time.
