FOOD: I ordered the Farmers combo breakfast.
I want to share with my friend some of the meat because I knew I could not eat it all.
Waitress was warm and friendly. Took our drink orders. Ordered our breakfast. When it arrived. It looked great with the exception of the sausages. Wow, talk about way the heck over cooked. I cut into one and as I suspected. It was completely gray inside. I put it over on another plate with the ham. OK, let's look at the ham. It looked very good. I took my first bite. Once I got past the salt it wasn't bad. I then took a bite of my home fried hash browns. Holy, pass the water. The ham was nothing compared to the potatoes. So darn salty. I couldn't eat them. I love salt but don't want the salt mine to go with it. I thought, is the cook mad at someone and he wants to sabotage the customers food...
OK, what about my two over easy eggs. Now things are improving at this point. The eggs were very nicely cooked. The pancakes were next up at bat. Wow, delicious. Plenty of syrup, butter, well whipped spread. I ate it anyway. Very good A+ on the pancakes as well. The breakfast was not a wash. The eggs and pancakes saved the day. Oh and the home fried hash browns were as cold as a mother in laws kiss. My friend had regular has browns and said the same thing. I gave her my bacon as I could not eat all of this breakfast. It was as limp as a dish rag after requesting crispy. The breakfast came on not 3 plates but 3 platters. Talk about a really crowded table. I was jockying food to one plate, nope not going to fit there. So wound up using 2 platters and the 3rd one was the scrap pile.
Again. I'm a chef. I recognized immediately what had happen. The sausage was cooked earlier and ket in something they thought would keep it warm like a heat lamp or they threw it back on the girl to heat it up. Nope, sorry cookie. It didn't work. Not cooked fresh. That's a huge no no. Give customers a value for their money. If youre going to serve sub standard food. Sell it cheap. Please don't think I stupid enough to not know what you're doing in the kitchen. Please don't tell me you cooked that sausage right after I ordered it either. The only mistake in doing that is you. If you cannot make every move count in a kitchen. Please get the heck out of that kitchen before you kill your owners customer base. If you can't salt for properly instead of like a Crack head did it. Don't salt it at all. That much salt will make people sick. I didn't say anything to the waitress because I would not have come across as a brother in the business. I would have sounded like Gordon R and that isn't a good thing either. 2 wrongs don't make a right. So, but the to.e I got to Claremore to visit a well know Museum there....which one? The ne the pay tribute to of a fine American Sage.
Needless to say. I most likely won't be headed back to Claremore soon. If I was. I darn sure would eat at Lucy's unless I wanted really good pancakes. I recommend you engage this place with high alert statistics. However, it's clean, bright and a very cozy. Quaint atmosphere.
No more for me. I had a stomach ache by the time we left the museum. Service was very good. Some foods very bad. Nice people though. read more
