Maria's Kitchen

This is Waffle House food at steakhouse prices. The place was empty at 7 PM, so that tells you what quality of a restaurant it is. Maybe it's the location... it's tucked around the corner by Boulder Creek, and we were hoping that maybe it was empty because it was new or hadn't found its regulars yet or something (not the low quality of the food). I paid $9 for a burger that tasted like the juice and flavor were cooked out of it, the salad obviously came out of a bag, and the server was never anywhere to be found.

Went there for lunch today with our 20 person group.  Apparently it was chosen because someone knew we could easily get in and sit together - which we did since there were only maybe four other customers.  But we may have overwhelmed our server as she had trouble getting the right orders to the right people.  There was also some confusion as when we came in someone from our party was told they could still order breakfast but our waitress said we could not.
I ordered the TexMex Philly Steak Sandwich which was basically a Philly Steak with jalapenos.  A little hotter than expected but that is not a negative.  Good tasting meat.
Lastly, there was an issue as the Women's restroom was out of order.  So even though the place was empty a line was building at the Men's.  So with no place to change a diaper it had to be done in one of their booths.  Hopefully they sanitize well.

Move over Farmer Bob Evans. Your country breakfast has been bested by a family that did a bang up job of frying up some breakfast lunch and dinner, hot, fast, and fine as cream gravy.

I opened up my fridge this urrrly this morn' to discover that the chickens ain't been keepin the fridge stocked up. No eggs + no bacon + no milk = No Breakfast! The e-mailman had sent me one of them new fangled electronic promos that I used to get in the mail till threatened the postman with my shotgun. Darn postman needs to keep his hands off my sheep... anyways. I saddled up the little one and got a wiggle on to see the elephant in the town of Brownsburg.

As usual with any new cantina, I keep to myself and ain't bother nobody, but the real friendly lady said howdee to us and sat us right away. I usually try a basic country breakfast of eggs, hash browns, toast, and meat. I am happier than a pig in slop that I did, but next square dance I may venture into their other offerings like their banana pecan french toast. The food was yee-haw good and cooked just the way it should. The whole grain wheat toast had some giteeyup to it, and the double helping of hash browns had just the right amount of crispiness to them. I'm still feenin' for some more of that extra crispy bacon!

My daughter wolfed down the whole kit and caboodle of her pancake, eggs and bacon, and then she asked for seconds! Bully for Maria's!! Although she loves it when I throw down for breakfast, she NEVER asks for seconds at home. I'll chalk it up to an ace high pancake and hopefully not another growing spurt (cause I don't think the grocery budget is ready for that !)

Well, partners, Imma mosey on for the night. But you best believe I'll be back for the boss breakfast soon!
