Well, not my kids. We are a natural and organic upscale diner. 83 things fresh daily. Organic produce, dairy, meat, cheese etc .. Zagat rated excellent, many awards.

OH, we fry in transfat free natural rice bran oil. We have wicked good Fries. From the fries to the pies, we make it! Breakfast all day. My kids are not huge fried food lovers. funny, but they love fresh fruit and veggies more.

Hehe. So you are not using frozen fries for example, but instead real potatoes.


*If you answer yes, I might skip the lenses and take a little trip to eat at your diner, mm.*

So you serve a lot of meats (coldcuts may be better wording) and stuff too?

mr. wire, we make all but 2 of the things we sell. from the pies to the fries, it is made in house, fresh, organic and daily. Might have a bit to do with the lines that pour out our door and into the street when we are open! :):)
