Chopped steak

Attraction had nothing to do with it. One was a mom with 4 girls in school I think and the other was approaching social security when she waddled out with the food for the tables.

The service was absolute first rate. I did not go in there to be demanding at all. I had too many miles on me that day in particular and had several really simple demands. A gallon of tea, bunch of breakfast food (I don't care what. hot and fast) and leave me be until I quit eating and drinking. We settle up then.

Only took a couple hours to get that 2000 mile run out of me. (Only they don't know that. The local law was in there fetching breakfast too. It was a beautiful day for everyone.)

If a town is that small and only has good people working hard to make a living any way they can like that, it's certainly a possibility to move to someday if things get too much BS here in Arkansas.

 

It's not a truck stop is the thing however there is quite a bit of truck parking within easy walking distance. They also have a full bar. I'm not sure if they have daily lunch specials. I'm always through or break there in the evening

 

At stretches? Surprised we have not met a Plainfield that's a ok place. I'm by there 2 times a week.

 

What everyone seems to be describing is a dish I know as Salisbury steak.

I'll google search the differences between chopped steak, Hamburger steak, and Salisbury steak.

Whatever it's called, it's a dish I don't order. I don't like the flavor or texture. It sure does smell good, though.( At most places.)

 

Planeview no longer has a diner. I 41 oshkosh, exit 113.

 

Salisbury steak should be a thin "steak" of one cut or another and beaten (tenderized) with a meat mallet, then cooked, then slow-simmered in some type of tomato and onion "sauce". Those are okay, too in some cases. You'll usually see this offered on a lunch special.
