He never claimed it as an "original". But, he practices the sentiment
expressed.

Fast means different things in different contexts. Quickly is a more stable
word.

He tried evening hours - but, after six months the books showed that he wasn't
making the light bill and extra kitchen staff's pay. So, back to the bread and
butter parts. Jim started with a food cart at the race tracks selling grilled
pork tenderloin sammiches, Polish sausages, hot dogs, etc. And on the south
plaza of the Old State Capitol in Spring-A-Leak - with the same menu and a
pretty good lunchtime crowd. Made enough in the warm weather months to carry
him through the winters ... until his ol' lady convinced him to get into the
sit-down restaurant business. 25 years on he's still going strong - (currently)
as the host, major domo and general presence in the front of the house. His
(now) ex-wife is the manager and they keep 4 waitresses three cooks, a busser
and a dishwasher hopping.

Of course each set of reviews has the obligatory clewless arsefardel who would
find fault in a free doughnut.

Oddly there are no reviews on Yelp - which may be a good thing.  Bv)=

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
 Categories: Cookies, Chocolate, Pork, Nuts
      Yield: 12 servings

    3/4 c  Butter
    2/3 c  Brown sugar; packed
    2/3 c  Granulated sugar
      1 ts Hazelnut extract
    1/2 ts Vanilla extract
      1 lg Egg
  2 1/2 c  Flour
      1 ts Baking soda
      1 ts Salt
      1 c  White chocolate chips
      1 c  Dark or semi-sweet chocolate
           - chips
      2 c  Bacon crumbles; REAL bacon
           - only - NOT BACOS 

MMMMM-------------------MAPLE CINNAMON GLAZE------------------------
      2 c  Powdered sugar
      1 tb Maple extract
      1 ts Vanilla extract
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
           Water to make a thick glaze

  The best flavors of breakfast together in a cookie:
  chocolate chip with generous bits of bacon and a bonus
  (optional) maple glaze.

  Preheat oven to 350oF/175oC.

  Beat together the butter, sugars, flavoring and eggs until
  creamy. In another bowl, sift together the dry
  ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture
  and stir together. Dough will be slightly soft. If you
  want a cakier cookie, add another half cup of flour. Add
  in chocolate chips and bacon bits. Stir until well
  integrated. Place dough on a sheet of waxed paper and
  refrigerate at least an hour. 

  Remove dough from fridge, pinch off 1 1/2" pieces of dough
  and roll into balls. Set dough balls about 2" apart on an
  ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten dough balls slightly with
  your fingers in the center.

  Bake cookies for about 10 minutes, or until the dough
  starts to turn golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on a
  cooling rack.

  NOTE: It takes about 2 lbs of bacon to make 2 cups of
  bacon bits, just for future reference. Just be sure to pat
  the bacon to remove all the extra grease.

  MAKE THE OPTIONAL GLAZE: Mix all ingredients together
  until smooth and creamy. If lumpy, use a whisk.

  Spread a small amount of the glaze on the top of each
  cookie.

  Yield: 12 servings

  Mr Breakfast would like to thank Holly Martel for this
