Mimosa made with leftover Andre champagne and Tropicana
IHOP:
Coffee
Split Decision Breakfast (2 strips bacon, 2 sausage links, eggs (I had scambled) 2 pancakes, 2 French toast triangles)
Clifton's Cafeteria:
Fried Chicken Lunch special (fried chicken leg, 2 vegetables (I chose peas and corn) mashed potatoes with gravy)
Chocolate pudding
Bang! pink lemonade flavor
Home:
4 Cadbury Mini Eggs
Large tumbler of Jameson over ice
Spaghetti with Ragu traditional
1 Jones mild sausage patty
Capresso cappuccino
8 more Cadbury Mini Eggs
3/4 bottle of Charles Shaw Beaujolais.
NOTES: Clifton's Cafeteria is well worth a visit. It was founded by a Salvation Army veteran, and is decorated like a forest lodge. This is incongruous to its setting in the decrepit downtown of LA. There are many types of pie. There are vaguely Christian parables that accompany displays of trees and large photographs of the northern woods. An elderly man in the bathroom had to scream in incredibly loud Spanish for his wife to come in and help him take his pants off. She did, which struck me as one of the most touching displays of pure love I have ever seen. The Split Decision Breakfast at IHOP cuts to the core of what's wrong with IHOP: it all sounds good on the menu, but when it arrives, you realize it's all a pile of pale diarrhea formula that only distantly approximates what is commonly understood to be meant by nouns like "bacon" or "eggs." Still, it meets my number one restaurant criteria, which is I don't have to drive to it. Also Doogs woke up on my couch and he looked like some pancakes would do him some good. Charles Shaw tastes buttery. QUESTION: if there were "Charles Shaw Select," and it cost 4 dollars, would anyone buy it?
