about 10 miles from home. Just finished stuffing my face and will take a nice nap when I get home if I don't fall on my ass in the parking lot.

Forgot to mention it came with home fries too.

Didn't need toast with how big the pancakes were.

Couldn't finish it...brought the homefries home in a box.

Breaking an egg yolk over pancakes and then smothering the whole thing in maple syrup.

Was it a bottomless cup?

I like to go to Tudor's Biscuit World and get a sausage biscuit for $3.29. It's more than twice as big as a McD's biscuit.

I always wonder if the restaurant knows their name is unintentionally funny, at least to my sophomore sense of humor

I got two refills.

This was a new diner to me. I had to give up my old place. The last two times I was at the old place, I sat at the counter and both times, a German cockroach ran right by my plate! The second time it happened, I tried to smash it, but it ran under the cash register.

I was so upset I had to stop going there! I loved it there so much, and the thing is...the place was very clean, but it was housed on the first floor of an apartment building where the neighbors upstairs were hoarders, and were evicted...but the cockroach infestation that originated in their apartment permeated the entire building, including the diner, and the owner was having a hell of a time getting rid of them. I talked to him about it.

He was having an exterminator treating the place every two weeks, but the infestation was stubborn.

I tried to continue going back there...but having it happen twice was a bit too much for me to handle.

i just looked up Tudor's Biscuit World...looks like good food!

Tooters!

I don't blame you a bit for checking out new diners in your area.

And lucky for you, good food, good price.

but I went there this morning after a doctor's appointment that happened to be on that side of town.

5 star reviews on Yelp and Google and rave reviews on Reddit, so I had to check it out. I'm glad I did!
