Michelin dining for cheapskates: Shoddy Goods 073
1I hesitate to say I have a particularly refined diet - some of my favorite meals have been the eggs, hashbrowns, and toast at the local diner - but I’ll splurge when the opportunity arises.
How about you: outside of home, what’s the best meal experience you’ve ever had?

The very best meal I ever had was over 40 years ago when we stopped in a Village Inn on the way home from the hospital after my daughter was born. I was terrified and incredulous that they let us walk out of the hospital carrying this tiny human being. I mean, we didn’t have to sign anything or get checked out or anything!
We had coffee, beef and mushroom omelets, hashbrowns, and biscuits and gravy.
It felt like the first meal of the rest of my life and it was. In all that confusion and apprehension, it was a touch of the familiar and comfort and for that reason it was the best meal in my life.
