Title: Breakfast Buffet in Manhattan?
Post by: rlh06 on December 13, 2015, 11:47:17 AM
I seem to remember a good breakfast buffet joint when passing through Manhattan many years ago. Can't remember the name of it but they had cat head buttermilk biscuits the size of a lap dog with pretty good sausage gravy and some decent waffles. I seem to remember it being on a numbered street or maybe some street about a fish of something. Y'all know what place I'm thinking about? Damnit, had I not been thinking about it, I could have named it.

I do remember it wasn't Kites. I think the place I'm thinking about had a blue door. Seemed like it may have been an old soda fountain shop at some point.

Predicate all the help. Hadn't seen the name pop up yet but I think it'll come to me at some point. Definitely wasn't a chain joint.

I do think the place had a neon sign out front. I'll remember it at some point. Good breakfast. Not sure about the rest of the menu. Definitely was on a number street.

Kites seems to be the choice here. Doesn't ring a bell to me though. Place I'm thinking of had a blue door and was on a numbered street, I believe. I seem to remember it having a neon sign out front. Perhaps this Kites place wasn't always Kites? I'll see if I can jog my uncle's memory cause he was with me and had those cat head buttermilk biscuits that were the size of a Rottweiler. Maybe he'll remember it cause I can't seem to recall.

Well, maybe I had the wrong city. Kansas'll do that to a person. Still, The Roost makes a darn good breakfast. Good joint.

I travel a lot and when I talk to people and say I'm from Manhattan they always ask which one, the big apple or the little apple.  When I say K-State and the little Apple their faces light up and tell me how much they enjoy watching the cats win championships and grace national TV all the time. It's actually pretty cool
