Cheap eats at IHOP

Someone let me know about daily specials at the IHOP just off Buck Owens Boulevard.

For example, Tuesday is crepe day and for about $5.99 you can pick any crepe off the menu — and get an ice cream sundae.

I don't think any meal on the "specials" list hits $7, and some days include a drink or ice cream.

This isn't Mama Tosca's or Mama Roomba's. It's more like what your Mom might serve.

But it's cheap — and I'd argue a better price and better qualiy than all-too-easy fast-food.

I worked a VERY short time at that IHOP and the early bird specials included drink and dessert.  The place would fill up with senior citizens looking for a bargain meal.  I thought it was great as they got meat, potato, veggie AND the dessert and drink for around 5 bucks back then.  It's a great service to the seniors who may not have a full meal like that too often, especially in a restaurant.

It doesn't have to be gourmet ya know.  :-)
