Town Talk Diner







Do you ever watch Diners, Drive-ins and Dives? I watched it a few weeks ago when Guy visited The Town Talk Diner here in Minneapolis. But, better yet, Dave's daughter watched it too and then sent us a gift certificate. I couldn't wait. They have gourmet comfort food.

We went on Friday. We'd tried to go before but it's open only at odd times - by that I mean it's open only at night.

We rolled in at about 4:30 PM.


Yes, people were there at that time. Not only that but a woman was filming for Google.

We didn't order what they showed on TV like the waffles with chicken or the fried pickles or the cocktail that starts with a 5 oz. beaker of bacon fat.

Dave had an egg sandwich - consisting of two fried eggs on large slices of sourdough toast with avocado, cheese, ham, tomatoes, bacon, and some sort of cream sauce.

That came with garlic, parsley fries that had been soaked in vinegar.

I ordered something else.

I don't want to talk about it.
