Loaded Volcano- almost like fair food ribbon fries, only 100 times better and fresh. Breaded Mushroom were great. Full fresh mushrooms lightly breaded. We picked Kahuna sauce and garlic parasmean.

Problem is now I am going to make a 1hr special trip back to buy more. The other cheeses here are amazing as well. The Heritage which is a yummy Gruyère was so good and I had to get that as well. Samples are abundant which is great at helping make the proper selections. Class act from everyone I have meant. Bonus you can see the cows and pet them as well. It was a lot of fun.

It was a blend of vanilla custard, fresh strawberries and hard-shell chocolate. It looked so delicious in the clear plastic cup, all three of the ingredients were swirled together. I would have taken a picture to capture the beauty, but with the high temperatures I just started to devour my sweet treat. I was sitting on their spacious patio, so it was melting fast and I was trying to eat it as quickly as it was melting. I would have preferred to been able to slowly eat it and truly enjoy the rich flavor of the custard and strawberries. However, sipping on the melted custard with the chunks of chocolate, did make for a nice treat, too. I'm coming back to try some of the food. The inside dining room was filled with senior citizen couples enjoying lunch. If it's good enough for them, I am confident I'll enjoy it, too. The young staff working the service window were friendly and very professional. They've been trained well, in providing quality customer service.

It was probably about 9:30pm and I had ordered a burger & Soda and then also a Red Velvet Cake blizzard (which is my absolute favorite blizzard ever!) But i made sure I was very nice & polite, bcuz it was getting late. But the lblacj lady who took my money was very rude & not even a smile on her face! She even ROLLED HER EYES when I asked for a packet of ketchup & mustard (for my burger) and then a different younger black lady had brought me the packets & I then asked if I could possibly get their 2/$$3 or whatever it was for their valentines cupcakes and she just stood there & "sighed" and rolled her eyes too! this cute younger chic was cute & had hot pink hair & I even said "oh ai like your hair color! It's really cute!" I said. and she just rilled her eyes & walked away. shut the window & walked away. like ... HOW RUDE! I doubt I will be going there again. Just bcuz they're not even NICE! She came back to the window ... the older lady did & states "we only have one" and held up the cupcake. So i said "i'll take it!" and kinda laughed. she just shut the window and didn't even put the cupcake in a bag or anything! This wasn't for me or it wudnt matter, but i asked for a bag to put it in. I'm surprised I got one honestly! Geesh .... like i was asking for a million bucks or something. my goodness! VERY RUDE!

Instead, it was a very enjoyable breakfast. I ordered, The Livy which was, one egg, choice of protein, hash browns and toast. I choose bacon as my protein. Their menu proudly promotes that the bacon and sausage is from local farmers. Trust me when I tell you, the bacon was very delectable. It could have been crisper, but the flavor made up for the lack of crispiness. I choose not to take the toast with my breakfast entree, because I also ordered a half size of Biscuits and Gravy. The biscuit was not made it house, its shape was too perfect. However, the gravy with chunks of locally sourced sausage made it a true comfort dish. The gravy was a semi-thick milk gravy and it wasn't overly seasoned with salt and had the right amount of pepper. Trying to watch my sodium intake, I like it when chefs are light handed when shaking the salt into a recipe. The atmosphere is like stepping back into the 50's. You truly will feel as if you left the sock hop and stopped by the local soda shop for a bite. I'll give you a heads up, the outside is junky with a lot of weird stuff. Ignore the decor on the outside and head straight into the diner for a good home cooked meal. The service was impressive. One waitress was taking care of the entire small dining room. I over heard her tell another table, that she was relatively new. Being new, she did a great job. She was attentive and very personable. Her service alone would get me to come back.
