The eggs at every CB I've been to have been cold, which always leads me to talking to the manager. Not like anyone has put a gun to my head, but I have never willingly gone to a CB. My food is always cold, I refuse to eat and pay for it, my wife gets embarrassed because she hates conflict (yet she married me) and three hours of the day is wasted on a cold sub par breakfast.dsheinem wrote: The eggs are usually cold, the grits are gelatinous, the pancakes are often undercooked or too sugary if they have a topping, and the sausage gravy is some of the worst I've had in any restaurant.
At this point I hope that the Phil talk dies down and the "Screw cracker barrel" talk rises. For three dollars you can eat hot food like a King at Bojangles, plus their food is better.
Okay, I might as well add this: Who wants to pay to eat at a Cracker Barrel? They have McDonald's tile floors, dirty bathrooms, crappy over priced food, crappy over priced gifts, and the atmosphere is doo doo.
Samson, if you are from the South, you should know better. What CB calls "Grits" may as well be pencil shavings. I'm sure you've had real grits, and there is no turning back. The greens they serve? Straight frozen greens stuck in a microwave. The eggs have zero flavor. You should be able to "taste the barn" when eating an egg,
Not that I ever pick nits though...
Again, for $8.00 I can purchase a pound of bacon (and cook it to the point where it doesn't crumble into dust) a dozen eggs, and enough ingredients to make twenty pancakes that don't come from a carton.
