Do you have a car? Take HWY 5 like you're going back to the airport, go past the airport and Hwy 5 turns into West 7th in St. Paul. About 1.5 miles on your right is the 2nd location of Mickey's Diner.

No. If you're going to go to Mickey's....GO TO Mickey's.

Impromptu day off tonorrow. Actually don't like it as I don't get paid for it. Better put it to good use. Job applications and applying to further schooling as well. Maybe bed, bath, & beyond, but I don't know if I'll have time.

Glad I kept playing NHL Fanduel, after saying over the weekend that I was done with it. Got 3rd place in a $1 entry fee tourny, and walked away with $90 last night. :cool:

There's an IHOP across Killebrew Dr. from the MOA. I don't know if there's such a thing as a good IHOP, so I can't comment.

Never impressed with IHOPs. Edit: I think they are vastly overrated. I'd stick with Denny's. They know they are just Denny's. ;)

And where does Perkins fall on the greasy spoon continuum? For breakfast, we're talking.

I've been to two IHops in my life, that being one of them, and each time I've had the worst service I've ever had in a restaurant. IHOP sucks.

They're not bad, but they used to be better. My brother used to work there as a cook in the 80's, while in high school. He said that when he started there they'd use real cheese, but then there was a corporate mandate (his location was corporate owned) to move to an imitation cheese product in the sauces. The kitchen staff revolted, kept using real cheese. I think they kept on that sort of track for a while but are now back to more of a quality ingredient push. Now they just need to get quality cooks.

Perkins is the "Bland" Spoon, not the Greasy Spoon. They are OK and safe, but not inspiring in any way. Jr likes the Tremendous 12 or the Hungry Man's Breakfast there.

I still don't think any of them can really screw up an omlette, some bacon and toast. Those taste the same no matter which one you go to.
