On our drive to Bowman, we had to stop for road repairs. We asked our flagman for a restaurant recommendation and this was his pick. Because it was Tuesday, he said, 'Get the chicken fried steak. It's the Tuesday special.'
We check into our hotel and ask the desk clerk the same question. 'Silver Dollar. It's Tuesday, so get the chicken friend steak.'
Well, we needed to be told twice, but not three times. Off we went. It's basically a local haunt with a nice barkeep and lots of the nice townspeople wondering who the hell we were.
