The Busy Bee Resaurant is situated on West Main Street, across from a pay-to-park lot that won’t let you park for an early morning breakfast without paying the all day price. Not that the Xonuts crew is sore about it (read: they are).
People walking by may think that this hole in the wall might be dingy and cold inside.
And they’d be right.
But don’t let the interior design fool you; it is designed to ward off the uninitiated. It’s a defense mechanism against those who don’t appreciate the canonical greasy spoon.
If a passerby happens to find themselves inside despite passing through the first level of defense, they would be confronted by the second level of defenseāa holdover from the sixties.
But travelers who persist through the second challenge will be rewarded with a pleasantly surprising meal.
Great meal! Both sausage links were meticulously bisected, creating a blanket of pork to cover the American cheese, the egg, and the meticulously toasted English muffin. Two thumbs up from Dave.
Bo opted for the Wheatcakes. Hearty as a heart. Sturdy as a sturd. Orange as a door hinge. Or former House Speaker John Boehner. They look like pumpkin pancakes, but they aren’t. Dave goes, “they look like egg bagels!” Dave was right. They’re orangey. Colored. Not flavored. They taste like regular pancakes but they’re less absorbent of butter and syrup. Reliably reliable. Wheatcakes. Fit for the servant of the guy who makes and fits and repairs shoes for a king. Desired by all United States soldiers involved in the allied intervention in the Russian civil war who were stationed on the Vaga River Front (1918-1919).
Overall, the Xonuts crew was impressed with not only the quality of the food, but the price-to-quality ratio as well.
Pro-Tip: Cash only! They may tell you that there is an ATM around the corner, but it was harder to find than the entrance to Diagon Alley.
Don’t Miss: The cigarette machine. It’s a novelty.
