After seeing the long line, I got interested and decided to head back the next day. We got there around 11 something and there was still a line. We waited about 25 mins so it wasn't too bad. It's just like waiting at a restaurant around dinner time. I guess I'm just not used to see a formal line for a restaurant.
I should have taken a pic of the line. The line was gone once we finished eating.
H's chocolate milk and my coffee.
Tennessee Country Ham end slices - $5
H's scrambled eggs and ham.
Hash Browns - $3 and Steak and Eggs - $14
H's steak and hash browns. The steak was dry according to him. The bread was not bad. The hash browns weren't too bad either. It was chunks of potato with a crispy top.
Old Fashioned Buttermilk Pancakes - $6.15
So since this place was called Pancake pantry, I decided to order pancakes. I initially wanted to order some special pancakes but I punked out at the last minute and got something safe. Damn, I totally made a mistake. I definitely should have been a little bit more adventurous and ordered one of their specials. Other people's pancakes looked good. Mine just looked like....well, ordinary . It tasted ordinary too.
So this was a decent place. It wasn't anything special. If anything, the breakfast was probably like IHOP. I guess I just ordered the wrong dishes.
Oh, and this hot sauce seemed pretty popular there. Not a bad hot sauce.
So that's it for my TN food posts. We ate at one more place but it was bad so I didn't even bother taking pics. The place turned out to be like a take-out. The food wasn't good either. It was called Jack's BBQ. It got really good rating on Yelp but it was horrible to me. What's up with that?
