Has this ever happened to you?
I visited one of my favorite diners with two goals: 1, to have an excellent breakfast; and 2, to get a good, current picture of the excellent breakfast for my image files. The aroma from the griddle and the hypnotic sight of the short-order chef juggling eight meals all at once put me into a fugue state; and by the time breakfast arrived I had forgotten all about goal #2. I dug in and remembered that I had wanted to take a picture only as used my last piece of buttered toast to mop up the last good splotch of egg yolk on the plate. So, pictured above is the plate that once held a very good meal. Based on the scraps, does anyone want to hazard a guess as to what, exactly, the meal was, and where it was served?
