I discovered there is a newer version of BW for Maximus so I will try
setting that up to see if it works.

IIRC, my GC is a busy one and they do enough lunch business to justify
the additional expense of the lunch steaks. Pork steak is just as good
to me as is ham and roast beef.
My favorite is the bourbon chicken. I find that easy to eat.
Once I can get my choppers adjusted again, I will attempt to eat salad.
I went to Freiberg's German Restaurant downtown with my parents yesterday
for lunch. The eatery offers a weekday lunch special of pork schnitzel
for $5.99. It is a really good-sized pork schnitzel. Mom and Dad had
rotkohl (red cabbage) and bratkartoffein (pan-fried potatoes) as their
sides and I had broccoli and bratkartoffein as my sides. With a soda
served in a large stein, I got out of there for under $10. If I'd had
water, it'd been closer to $7.

Freiberg's website is
https://eatbrats.com. Andreas, the owner, was
born in East Germany and immigrated to the US about 20 years ago. My
parents and I were there on Freiberg's opening night. There was
lederhosen and bier everywhere that night!
DD> I know the words to that song Bv)=
As much as I dislike moderation at GC, small portions of varied food is
the way to go.

It is sad. The nearest Shoney's to me, if I'm correct, is in Morristown
which is an hour's drive west of me. My local National Weather Service
office is in Morristown so if I have to go there on SKYWARN business,
I'll usually stop at Shoney's with other SKYWARN members to get the
lunch or dinner buffet. The next nearest Shoney's is in Pigeon Forge, the
giant tourist trap, at a two hour drive from here.

I don't think I've tried their biscuits and gravy. I do love their
Frisco sandwiches, both breakfast and lunch versions.
