Yeah, it was Tom's Diner. Sadly I looked it up while I was thinking of gyro omelettes, and though I thought only 1 of their 2 locations had closed, both are gone

I'll make a note to check out Ritter's next time I'm in town! Pittsburgh has good diners.

Soft Pretzel Twists are just a dollar today at Sonic, which for how good it is (not saying it’s amazing but it is better than a lot of places), is hardly ever discussed here. They have a good looking Garlic Butter Bacon Burger right now...none of us have reviewed it. Unless I missed that somewhere.

They have had that burger before, right? Looks tasty but small on the ad, $3 price point isn’t motivating either.

So on my app, that 'tab' is 'Deals' not 'Offers' and I see quite a few: couple of daily deals (BOGO for a $.01 b'fast sammich, $3 off $15 purchase, BOGO free Happy Meal), the J Balvin Meal (good thru 11/01) and a couple good thru 12/27 ($1 large fries, $.99 any size coffee).

I'm probably doing it wrong, though. Do you have to be signed up for offers?

The buy a 20 pc and get two free fries deal is my go to right now. I've ordered nugs more in the last month or two than the rest of my life combined.

And I have to say covid has done wonders for their curb side service. I am getting my food in 90 seconds. I was happy if it came out within 5 minutes before.

All the gyro talk reminds me...

About 10-15 years ago I'm driving across the country and we stop outside Tulsa, Okla to see my (now) wife's grandma, so we go to the little diner run by this Iranian guy ("one of the good ones, just look at all the US military stuff on the walls in here, he puts all the local vets' pictures on the wall" etc). According to TripAdvisor it is the #23 restaurant in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. I have no idea what I was thinking, but I order the gyro. "The what?" I point at the menu. "Oh, the JY-RO. Uhh, let me see if we have that." Oh, ****. I try to say 'hey, chicken fingers will be fine.' But she's gone. Sadly she affirms that indeed they still carry JY-RO, so I can have that. Guess I'm committed. So the thing comes with no sauce, and I'm like 'uhhhh, can I have the tzatziki?' "The h-wat?" ****. 'Ummm, the JY-RO sauce?' "Oh, is there a sauce? Let me check. HEY, do we have a JY-RO sauce?" Eventually, a small cup of tzatziki emerges. I have no idea how old it was. Needless to say, this was not a smashing success.

Moral of the story: stay in your lane. FPS is not your friend.

The #4 restaurant in sapulpa, where your steak comes with sides of tabouleh, hummus, cabbage roll, bologna, and ribs. No it's not good, yes it's hilarious and worth one visit.

I had the burger a few months ago. Good, but not as good as Buttery Jacks. Food or $ wise.

Funny, my grandparents grew up in 20s and Depression era Sapulpa. I've never been to OK myself. Will not be ordering a gyro when I do go.

Had Mcd's breakfast the other day for the first time in i cant even remember how long and it was pretty damn good. Everything was super fresh but my gf ordered something i had never seen ordered before. She got this pancake breakfast platter with all kinds of stuff, like we couldve probably shared that alone. It was ok i guess but a complete rip off imo... i got a sausage egg mcmuffin and hash brown and everything was piping hot and i was still drunk/hungover so it really hit the spot for sure. Thats all i got.

The platter could have fed you both but is a complete ripoff?

I guess i left out the part that it was 17$ for that order and thats why it seemed like a ripoff. It was on the strip but still that seems pretty high for what we actually got.

No i do not like pancakes and literally think the only breakfast items from mcds ive ever gotten have been mcmuffins and a hash brown.

Big breakfast is just a deconstructed sausage egg biscuit. And more expensive. I used to like it but not worth the jam and butter you get. Hot cakes may be worth it?

I'm getting a few daily deals.
Buy one breakfast sandwich, get one free.
Two mcgriddles for $4 (bacon or sausage, egg, cheese)
$2 bagel sandwich
$2 10 pc mcnuggets
Free pie with $1 purchase
Free lg fries with any purchase
Buy a combo, get free happy meal

Might do the mcgriddles or a steak bagel

I don't think I've ever seen anyone under 65 order one. Definitely not judging though!

I used to get them when I was younger, but that was before Rick deployed the full array of breakfast biscuit sandwiches and stuff.

Yup I remember these being a lot more popular in the 90s.
