    Chicken Dinner
    Steve S.

    If you ever find yourself cruising on I-40 or I-70 right around the Illinois/Indiana border and you have a hankerin' for some good grub - you must track down the Marshall Family Restaurant. It is only a few minutes off the well traveled path. To be honest - I was not trekin' through, but was back home again in Indiana (insert state song here) for Easter visiting relatives and had the opportunity to partake in an incredible lunch. My uncle and I hopped in the truck and he opened his cell phone (yes cell coverage is there). Called the restaurant and placed our orders. Call ahead - YES! As we pulled into town my uncle was obliged to wave at everyone he knew - basically limiting his driving to one hand. We pulled into the parking lot and headed inside. After the obligatory hellos and introductions to every person in the place we sat down. The Restaurant was clean, a fairly good size, enough for a smoking and non-smoking section, all with that hometown feel. I was even advised that many wedding receptions and rehersal dinners are held here. =-) Here came lunch (pictured). Basically the equivalent of a Whole Fried Chicken and a Diet Coke. Cost: $6 The taste - incredible. Light, flakey breading and batter, not too oily, and every bit of juice still there! Yet cooked through and through! I eventually found out that the chicken is slooooooooooooooooooooow cooked (deep fried), and if you do not call ahead it is about a 20 minute or so wait for this delictible treat! The service was small town - quick, friendly and efficient. Maybe because I was with my uncle and he knows the entire town. Who knows! All I can say is that I should have ordered another dinner to-go, but that would have posed a serious conflict with the left over Easter ham back at the homestead.

    Got the roast chicken dinner. 6.95 for half a chicken, potato, dressing, soup, veggie. Now you're not going to mistake this for high French cuisine but that's not the point. A solid home style meal made only with ingredients your great-grandfather would recognize for a tenner, tip included. Good eats and a good deal anyday.
