So I thought I'd devote a few of these blog-icles to places for breakfast in the 'burgh. I'm starting with a place just a few miles from the Beattie Career Center, and so a perfect place to stop to fuel up for the day on your way to our show.
Chub's Place is located at 810 Ingomar Road, Wexford PA on the edge of North Park. Hopefully you can tell from the picture that Chub's has all the ambiance of a machine shop; it several notches above "greasy spoon" but definitely on the "dive" end of the scale. If you're counting calories or grams of fat, your calculator may not have enough digits. If you like to think your food is being prepared in a kitchen scrubbed operating-room clean then stick to Bob Evans (or one of the other places I'll get around to reviewing later).
But don't let the negative reviews you'll find on the Internet scare you. The food is simple and tastes good and is cooked on a big grill just behind the counter. The waitresses are friendly and call you "Hon" and keep your coffee cup full. I recommend their L-PO - a big plate of scrambled eggs, fried potatoes and sausage that bears absolutely no resemblance to an omelet. Or have anything with bacon and eggs - you can't go wrong. If you believe that frying makes everything taste better and think coffee should be strong enough to remove paint, then Chub's is your place!
Directions from A W Beattie:
- turn left out of the parking lot onto Babcock Blvd,
- in half a mile turn right on Kummer Road
- in about 1 miles turn left onto Ingomar Road
- Chub's is about half a mile a head on the left.
I'm always looking for breakfast places - if you've got a favorite, especially in the Northern 'burbs, please leave a comment here telling me where it is and I'll check it out and report back.
