Thank you for posting this question...beat me to the punch. I need a greasy diner in the worst way...something other than the Mecca. If anyone has a lead on a Mexican restaurant that serves breakfast in Seattle Metro, please post....I am Jonesing hard for Migas and Chillaquilles.

<OK, I may have to turn in my eG card after this, but down in Fort Worth, there are two places I miss so baaaad sometimes. One is Pancho's Mexican on West Camp Bowie, the other is Peony's on the Weatherford Traffic Circle. Pedestrian...yeah....cheap...yeah...good in and out with a workcrew...YEAH...food good?...YEAH> Mabelline...I'm a FW native (Paschal HS))...Pancho's has gone corporate...they even have TV ads with an annoying jingle..."Raise the flag, raise the flag". Peony's...jeez...haven't eaten there in decades. In reference to the W.Tx. native who posted earlier...I'll have a Chix-fried from Massey's on 8th Ave (big as a hub-cap), BEEF brisket plate from Angelo's and chillaquilles from Joe T's bakery (Esperanzas) on Hemphill.

Red Apple in Bridle Trails had it till I killed a case two weeks ago (at a healthy $8.69 a six-pack I might add)...went in last night..no Bock, but had some Blonde.

I know this is a dead thread, but it contains some of the funniest posts I've read in ages. Had never heard of the Melting Pot until I saw it next to 10Mercer. In fact, I didn't think people still did fondue and I've been in the food biz for over twenty years. You guys are right...Beppo is absolutely horrible...perhaps the worst FOH ensemble in history, even without Jeff B. Todai Seafood Buffet? As my dear grandmother would say,"Well, we can scratch that one off the list".

Rodney/Kyle- The pics made me homesick...wish you had gotten up to Ft. Worth to try Railhead...another trip perhaps. I'm interested in finding out more about your set-up in Portland...interested in doing the same type of thing on the Eastside of Seattle...no decent 'que here to save my life. Hope you will contact me... David in Redmond dwall817@yahoo.com
