And coming from joisey, I know what you mean. I've been going there for years and they have become the bogey for NYC deli's in this area, supplying a lot of area shops with their cold cuts, breads & cheese.

Re: PESO - Breakfast At Bette's
Is that Zingerman's Roadhouse? If so, I was there maybe fifteen years ago ... don't recall much about the food, but it was recommended by a couple of friends who lived in South Dakota at the time. I recall them trying to put food out like a NYC deli - didn't quite cut it for a New Yawka, but not too bad considering. Certainly didn't have the CGH, so you're on!

Re: PESO - Breakfast At Bette's
Whoa! That's great. Can't believe I missed it - maybe it's a recent addition. I love a good corned beef hash, and in all my years of eating breakfast out, I've only found two places with acceptable CBH, one of which was in a little cafe about 300 miles south of me and the other in a small restaurant up in Oregon. I'm gonna have to give this one a try next time I visit.

Hi Ken ...I'd agree with your assessment It took a few shots to get the waitress just where I wanted here. Things move fast at Bette's in the early morning.

Re: PESO - Breakfast At Bette's
Completely agree! Your best, Shel! I can see this as a classic period snapshot. Waitress in typical plate handling mode and depicted in motion, a black cook in his "rightful" roll and the breakfast boys blithely performing their morning routine.

Since you put that double-dash-space limiter in there, I can't reference the URL, but... Seems to me the inclusion of an apostrophe in it was the killer. I haven't been able to access it from any of the list messages it shows up in.
