I bet the food is actually really good. I once ordered tamales at a Chinese
buffet and a sweet Mexican grandm bought me some of hers she makes fresh
daily for the other Mexican workers there. A local eatery called Cootie
Brown's[1] has some of the most amazing Mexican food available though
they make Jamaican, New Orleans, Mexican, Italian, and American entrees.
They also ship their food nationwide.

We also have East Tennessee State University here that helps the local food
and downtown bars going. There is this tiny hole-in-the-wall place called
Pennyman's Diner[2] a couple of miles southwest of me that is constantly busy
but it's delicious. "Fox And Friends" did a live broadcast from there a few
years ago and Pennyman's became even more popular.

Looks tasty and yeah, I have to do that also. I am thankful my mom taught
me how to change measurements in a recipe.
Here's a recipe I just transcribed from one of my favorite YT channels.
"Life of Boris" is about a Russian programmer and his life. He actually has
some interesting recipes and ways to eat very, very cheaply for times when
your employer doesn't have money to pay you (that's happpened to me).
I even included the metric measurements!
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
Title: Milk Soup (Soviet-era)
Categories: Main dish, Russian, Pasta, Sean Dennis
Yield: 2 Servings
1 c (250 mL) Uncooked pasta
2 c (500 mL) water
2 c (500 mL) milk
1 t (5 mL) salt
2 T (30 mL) butter
2 T (30 mL) sugar
Boil water. Add salt to water. When water is boiling, add pasta.
Boil until pasta almost ready (discard pasta water if you want the soup
to be less salty; I do not). Pour milk to pasta mix. Mix in sugar and
butter. Lower temperature to low and let simmer for a few minutes until
pasta ready. Serve hot with side of buterbrod.
