All right, dear friends, here's the last specials post before we go on our Autumn Sabbatical! Again, we are closed from Monday, 10.19 to Thursday 10.29 for our annual break.

Well, honestly, I'm already on it. Cory and Zach are going to hold down the fort this weekend, so YAY ME!

Ergo, here are the...

SPECIALS, 10.17-10.18:

Just so you all don't think we are phoning it in on the eve of our break, we bring you

THE OTHER GREAT PHILLY THING!: It starts with slow braised pork tenderloin lovingly rubbed with Italian seasoning and a truly unreasonable amount of garlic, then braise/roasted to melting tenderness. We slice that thin, and then serve it up with our legendary turnip greens (Look, Broccoli Rabe is not readily available, but this will give you some bitterness and acidity, so just settle down!) and Provolone cheese. We are serving that up as a hash, over our house browns, with twobeggs abd toast or fruit, OR AS THE DEVASTATING SANDWICH IT WAS MEANT TO BE on a Telera Roll. Either way, fantastic. Either way, $18.

Soup and Grilled Cheese Combo: AND SPEAKING OF KILLER SANDWICHES...we are SO HAPPY to pronounce it to be SOUP SEASON! We are kicking it off with an ECS favorite, Potato Leek soup! Sweet, creamy, rich, satisfying! And we are pairing that with a sourdough and provolone grilled cheese! WHAAAT? Look, it's finally starting to feel like FALL, and this combo will warm your body and soul. I say come get some breakfast and then take the soup and sando to go, but, you know, I might be biased. $15

On a serious note, I want to say thank you to all of you, guests new and old, for supporting us and being awesome and brave and trying all the new things we have brought you over the last year. We really do do this for you, and we love coming up with new stuff for y'all! We have some big fun things coming up in the next few weeks, and we are getting ready to embrace the holiday madness! We love you. We need your support to keep going. We do all this for you. Come in and get this love, wouldja?

10/09/2026

All right, everybody, it's time for the

SPECIALS, 10.10 to 10.16

We are still treading this line where we want to do comfort stuff, but it's still kinda warm out. Y'all KNOW we try to keep it super seasonal and on point! Thus, we give you

CHICKEN A LA KING, 2 WAYS: An absolute diner CLASSIC! Shredded poached chicken in a classic Veloute sauce, enriched with celery, red pepper, carrots, peas, and onion, made lush and rich with a touch of cream. You can have it as a hash, with out standard set of house browns, two eggs, and toast, OR as a Blue Plate Special over home made mashed potatoes with toast points. Either way, you get a super nostalgic dish served up to you for $18.

Caramel Apple Stuff: This is BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! Delicious, delicious caramelized apples served over the top of either our pancakes or French toast. IT IS STILL APPLE SEASON! Do NOT come in here on some Pumpkin Spice Nonsense! WE will roll that stuff out WHEN IT IS TIME! Meanwhile, come experience this beautiful expression of fall and the harvest thereof! $15 either way.

Hey, listen, we are about to take our much needed Autumn Sabbatical! We will be closed from 10.19 to 10.29 so that all of our staff can get some much deserved rest and so that we can power up for the holidays to come! We have some very exciting things coming up, and we are, as always, so very happy to put love on plates and bring you all the straight up deliciousness! Come see us before the break!

10/02/2026

Hello, Kindred! How are you all doing? We hope that you are all settling into your fall routines. Kids back in school, weekend football, chillier mornings, sun coming up later. It's FALL, y'all! And while we aren't QUITE ready to bust out the full on fall dishes, we are moving in that direction! Thus, we give you....

SPECIALS: 10.3-10.9

Pork cutlet, 2 ways: So, we took some pork tenderloin, pounded it out, and fried it, Iowa Skinny style! Think chicken fried steak, but with a pork filet mignon. We are serving it as a hash, over house browns with two eggs and toast, or on a sandwich. BUT HERE'S THE THING...Chef Cory has done it AGAIN, combining textures and flavors to accent the dish! This week, it's an Apple and Pear chutney laced with Gochujang and Mirin! It is just a flavor EXPLOSION! So that goes on the cutlet, and then, for the hash, it gets eggs and toast, but we are also doing it as a sandwich on a griddled Telera roll topped with the chutney, thin sliced onions, lettuce, and tomato. Either way, these are flavors that all pair up beautifully! Come give this a try. $19, Either way.

Early Fall Omelette: Roasted Butternut and Acorn squash in a three egg omelette with bacon and melted havarti cheese. Sweet, savory, smoky, creamy, this one has it ALL! With house browns or fruit and toast. $16

C***r Punch: A blend of Honeycrisp c***r, cranberry juice, and orange juice, topped up with Ginger Ale! Super refreshing! $7

Come on in here and get with the Autumn vibes! We can't wait to see you!

Hey, my beloved legion!

Cory and I are SUPER excited to bring you some deliciousness for the first official week of fall, so I thought that I'd give you all a little jump in the weekend. It's FALL, Y'ALL! We are about to start cooking all that super good comfort stuff for you to snuggle up to, but FIRST, we get the glory of the harvest season! As always, we are trying to cook with the peak of the season and bring you the stone cold deliciousness! Ergo, A DAY EARLY, we give you....

SPECIALS, 9.26-10.3

Up first, a seasonal transitional dish that has been MUCH beloved...

Bulgogi Hash and Sandwich: Korean style marinated beef, nice and balanced between sweet and savory, served as a hash with house browns, two eggs, and toast or fruit, or as (And my bias is FULLY ON DISPLAY HERE) a brilliant sandwich! Think Philly Cheesesteak with Korean flavors, but then amped up with a totally unique sandwich spread from the devastating mind of Chef Cory, an Asian style slaw, all on a Telera roll with chips or house browns. Look, it's all good. The hash is awesome. The sandwich will CHANGE YOU! Come get this goodness! Either one, $20.

First Blush Of Fall Stuff: IT'S NOT PUMPKIN SPICE YET! First up in the harvest is APPLES! ERGO, we making some apple stuff! Our golden pancakes or our wildly delicious French toast, topped with a custom made blend of apples and spices and a hit of classic streusel topping. Sweetness, texture, seasonality, we bring it all. IT'S NOT TIME FOR PUMPKIN SPICE YET! Stay with us! Obey the seasons! Pancakes, $15, French Toast $16.

Lychee Lemonade: We actually got around to making this beverage, and it is absolutely awesome. Let it be the last, most romantic taste of summer as we move into the long, cold seasons to come. $7

09/18/2026

All RIGHT, everybody! We continue to fix up the shop so that we can be here for another 70 years (Even though a lot of times it feels like we work in the Milennium Falcon. Chewie! Fix the stupid Hyperdrive!) We think we have the plumbing situation momentarily under control! And we are slowly edging into the cooler weather of FALL, which is just SO GREAT as far as the stuff we get to cook for you all! So, as promised, here are the REALLY cool....

SPECIALS, 9.19-9.25

Creole Jambalaya: An iconic New Orlenean dish, it is made Creole rather than Cajun by the inclusion of tomato. Ours is chicken, smoked sausage, and BIG old shrimp simmered nice and slow in a tomato and chicken stock broth with the classic trinity, all kinds of seasonings, basmati rice, and green onions. You thought the Gumbo was something? Come get some of this! Served with a side of Maque Choux for good measure. It's like a really advanced creamed corn. Trust us. This is a dish over which you will never get. $19

Elotecakes: You guys, we are pretty sure this dish is entirely novel. We are taking our Buddycake mix and enhancing it with fire roasted corn kernels, and then serving those golden griddle cakes topped with a lime laced mayo, Tajin seasoning, and Cotija Cheese. Basically, we have made the classic Steet Food Elotes into a pancake. And they. Are. AMAZING! $14 for the big ones, $8 for a side. And NO, you can't just add them to your hash! They're special!

Lychee Lemonade: We are reprising the most unexpectedly delicious lemonade of the summer for the last official week. It's flowery and sweet and delicious! $7

We have a VERY exciting couple of weeks upcoming with the release of our new menu, and you KNOW we are going to be bringing the heat as we move into Fall (Officially, it starts Tuesday!). We can't wait to see you and feed you and show you all the love! Come on HOME to us, now!

09/17/2026

Guys, we are going to have to close today as we FINALLY get our plumbing issues fixed once and for all. Thank you so much for your patience.

09/14/2026

Okay, everybody, you KNOW I don't like to clutter up your feeds, but Cory and I have some STONE COLD VOODOO for you guys this week!

Keep your eyes peeled for this weeks specials! I promise you, we have one dish full of deep, deep comfort for you, and one that is, as far as we can determine, completely novel! I would tell you all about it, but we are still working on the recipe! Trust us, though, it's gonna be EPIC!

09/11/2026

Yo, yo, yo! Our people! How you be?

Cory and I were talking yesterday, and we feel like we are in a weird culinary place. Like, it's TECHNICALLY fall, but it still FEELS like summer. We are chomping at the bit to start making these delicious fall dishes! Braises. Stews. Super duper comfort foods. Stuff with apples, and cabbage, and all that good fall stuff! We both agree that we are SICK of summer grilled stuff! And yet, this weather won't let us do what we yearn to do. We need it to be a little cooler. We need it to be hoodie weather! So we are trying to bridge the gap this week with dishes that use the brilliant produce of the season, and that still reflect the sunny seasonings of Summer, but that have an eye on the comfort of fall. Ergo, we give you.....

SPECIALS: 9.12-9.18

Just A Big Ass Breakfast Burrito: When you want an all seasons cuisine, you don't have to go much further than our brothers and sisters to the south! We honor them with a burrito stuffed with your choice of meat, scrambled eggs, and home made refried beans, all wrapped in a flour tortilla and given the "Suiza" treatment with home made Salsa Verde and melted cheese. Oh, just so you know, we are featuring Chorizo made by the LEGENDARY Chris Burrell on this one. Custom made pork Chorizo, with the rarified touch of the Cranky Chef himself. Trust me, y'all really want this! Served with House Browns or Fruit. $18

A Stupid Ass Combo: Okay, so this one starts with our homies from Edgebrook Acres. They came through last weekend and hipped us to a grilled cheese made with fresh mozzarella and MINT! SLOW DOWN! I KNOW IT SOUNDS CRAZY! Except that mint is used as a savory herb all over the Mediterannean, from Greece to Egypt! So we banged this up. Grilled cheese with fresh mozzarella and fresh mint, on sourdough bread, grilled off in duck fat, served with a roasted tomato soup. Fresh herbs? Check. Summer Tomatoes? Check. Balance between Summer and Fall? CHECK! I swear to you, this is gonna break your palate. $16

POGanade: POG (Pineapple, Orange, Guava) juice? Delicious. Lemonade? Delicious. Blend them together? We shall see. My money is on a logarithmic arc towards total deliciousness. See if I'm wrong. $7

You guys, we have SO MUCH cool stuff coming up! A major menu revision! A takeaway dinner for our dear friends Andy and Jeremy! Our 70TH anniversary starting next year! And, as always, every ounce of creativity that we can bend in service to you. We are grateful to.you, we love you, and we are here to make you happy. Please, come let us do our jobs. Legio Patria Nostra.

Good morning, all!

Happy Labor Day weekend! We are going to keep it simple this weekend on account of usually everyone either takes off or has a barbecue to go to. Ergo...

Specials: 9.5-9.11

Wisconsin Hash, Redux: I sure wish I hadn't done this last week, because when I was trying to come up with a Labor Day dish I couldn't think of one better than this! B**r poached bratwurst griddled to golden crispness, seved with caramelized onions and b**r cheese sauce. It's really, really good. $18

Tres Leches Pancakes: Cory has been thinking on this one for a minute. Our golden brown Pancakes with warm spices mixed in bathed in the traditional Tres Leches syrup and topped with fresh sliced strawberries. $13

Blue Juice: It's blue! It tastes blue! It's refreshing! $7

Shop hours this weekend are as follows:

Sat: As normal.

Have fun, be safe, and we hope to see you soon!

09/03/2026

Folks, the extreme heat has taken its toll on our AC and coolers, so we are going to be closed today to get them repaired.

08/29/2026

THIS! THIS RIGHT HERE! THIS IS WHAT WE ARE FIGHTING AGAINST! I will NEVER serve my legions that goddamn nonsense! NEVER! Our resistance is why we cost a little more, but I'd like to believe that having REAL cooks use their skill and creativity to make your food is more than worth it! If you want the lowest cost breakfast, g'head on. Go to Sanders, or Yellow Rose. They do a good job. But if you want REAL food, sourced from REAL PEOPLE (, we see you), prepared by people who work hard to get better as cooks EVERY DAY, then you come to us. REAL recognize real. Game recognize game. It is our imperfection that GUARANTEES you are getting the stone cold honest truth! Please watch this video, and understand that where you choose to eat is a revolutionary act!
