Denny's now has televisions with their own "news channel" at restaurants out here in SoCal.

Anyhow, one of their segments I saw this weekend, while chowing down on a $4 skillet, was about a guy with a MAME machine. He didn't have a fancy front-end, just MAME32 (or whatever the equivalent is named).

No sound, so I couldn't hear any of the commercial. Machine had a large flat screen and a CP set back from it; an enormous one.
 
Dennys sucks. I was at a local one last Sunday and waited FOREVER. I called the order in as I was in a hurry. Two orders of hotcakes and a side of bacon. They told me 20 minutes. OK, No problem. Perfect. It will take me that long to get there. I got there and it was not ready. They took my money as soon as I got there, but still had to wait almost a 1/2 hour more (total of 45 minutes) for an order I CALLED IN!!!!!!!!!

This was in North Olmsted, Ohio, right outside of Cleveland.
 
Shoney's was (is?) better. One of the few things I miss about living up North.

Just looked up Shoneys, and yes it was mostly a Southern thing. Learn something new everyday! :) They used to have them all over southern PA back in the 80's, but I guess they closed up and sold them? Apparently they only have six restaurants left in FL.

Waffle House... Or just wait the 3 hours and go to cracker barrel when they open. If you're eating at any 24 hour breakfast joint it better be 3 am.
 
Denny's is OK at 2AM after about a dozen beers.... but Alberto's is better!

We have a local breakfast house here called "Sunrise Diner"... it's a hole in the wall and is FREAKIN' AWESOME. Bacon encrusted Waffles anyone??

For awesome here you go to either Matt's Big Breakfast or Over Easy. Mat's has some great Pesto Pork Chops and Over Easy has some real nice jalapeno biscuits and gravy.
Both have been featured on Diners, Drive In's, and Dives. The Tecelote Cafe in Sante Fe is kick ass for breakfast too.
