Obviously you understood my question<G>... I knew about both, and wondered
which you had at that hour! I was sorta wondering how the steak and eggs
were... and the hash browns.

Not wanting hash browns and knowing that we couldn't substitute sliced
tomatoes, BR and I decided not to bother with the steak and eggs and ordered
the regular steak special. Andrew evidently had his heart set on
tomatoes--even if it meant that they were cooked. He opted for the Chicken
Parmesan sandwich.

Is the special going up in price?

It's $4.95 for now, but if the knuckleheads in government keep ordering
more U.S. feed corn to be turned into expensive, tax-subsidized
ethanol, all meat including the Ellis Island steak will be going up in
price

This is strictly from my rapidly deteriorating memory so take it with at
least a few grains of salt as I could be very wrong, but I vaguely remember
that someone from the group was told and posted that since the smoking ban
went into effect, the plan was to raise the price of the off-the-menu EI
steak special by $2.00 to cover the projected loss in revenue.

When I went there just a couple of weeks after the smoking ban went into
effect, I waited close to an hour for a table. I could be very wrong, but
their business seemed more than fine to me.
