Jack In The Box Jumbo Breakfast Platter

So after seeing a commercial for it last night, I decided to take the opportunity today to try out Jack In The Box's New Jumbo Breakfast Platter. For the most part, it's pretty standard fair for fast food breakfast plates. You got pancakes, eggs, meat, and hash browns. Unlike other breakfast platters though, you do not get a biscuit or english muffin for your troubles. Though I guess it makes sense for the price. My only major gripe about the platter is that instead of giving regular sized pancakes, they give you mini pancakes. I mean they taste alright, but their small size make pouring syrup on them a bit of mess. This is due to the syrup not having much area to run down. Either way, it would have probably have been more effective to have offered pancakes in a regular size. Also, am I the only think that the eggs alone take up a good portion of this platter? Eh, for $2.99 plus tax, I can't really complain that much thought. All in all, I think this platter is passable to someone who wants a good old American style breakfast for dirt cheap at any time of the day. Though if you want a quality breakfast, go to IHOPs, Dennys, Nations or some other restaurant or diner like them.

Free Denny's Grand Slam

So earlier today, Denny's was having it's free Grand Slam promotion today from 6:00AM-2:00PM. Considering I am man who loves pancakes, I just had to be there. So here are some photos I took during this excursion with my still somewhat malfunctioning camera.



This is what the line looked like when I arrived on the scene.



Here is a shot to establish that I am at an actual Denny's.



Here is another shot of the line as I got closer to the front of the restaurant.



Here are some signs in front of the Denny's promoting things like a Grand Slam sandwich and free Grand Slams on your birthday. What there's a sign about salad you say? What's that? Never heard of it.



So what I take from the placemat, Denny's starting tomorrow will offer endless pancake and fries with it's entrees that come with them. This means if you order like a burger and fries, you can get unlimited refills on fries. Or if you order an entree that comes with pancakes, you can get refills on pancakes. A neat idea, even though I never eat at Denny's outside of free Grand Slam day.



So here is the main attraction in all it's sheer unbridled glory.



Although the free Grand Slam was awesome, really $2.51 for a soda? I guess they have to make their money back somehow.
