Mitchell's Original

Today was kind of a slow day at work. Many had returned from vacationing, but many were still gone and, due to the holidays, there weren't any major deadlines that needed to be reached five minutes ago. So a good-sized group of us decided to go out to lunch. We went to Mitchell's Original on Clybourn, a pretty basic diner-type restaurant with Greek influence. It serves breakfast and lunch foods whenever you want. It's not great, but it's not at all bad.

By the time I was supposed to place my order (which took a while, though this wasn't a bad thing), I had no idea what I wanted because I had spent the entire time amusing myself by the menu. Here are some highlights:

- The "Just Picked Omelette" -- I really should get myself an omelette tree. I think I might actually eat breakfast if I had one.

- The "Pizza-Cado Omelette", the "Bac-O-Cado Burger", and the "Breast-A-Cado" (a turkey sandwich) -- Not only do I find the need to title anything with Avocado in such a manner hilarious, but I am also highly amused that each incarnation is concatenated in a different way.

- "Don't forget that you can order any sandwich 'Hollywood Style!'" -- So what does this special style of sandwich mean? -- "Hollywood Style sandwiches are served with lettuce, tomato, and mayo." -- ... uh... huh.

- "Glorified Bacon & Eggs" -- this is the actual menu item name, not just what I called it.

- "Fresh, Light, and Beautiful Salads" -- Steve-o said he would please like to know which salads were fresh, which were light, and which were beautiful.

- Tuna Melt Deluxe, made with "our freshest tuna salad" -- ... as opposed to the normal tuna melt with gets the not-so-fresh tuna salad? Which menu item gets the day-old tuna salad?
