Yeah, now that you mention it, it might be more complicated than
just taking down the name, and it's not the kind of place where I'd
order lunch or dinner so I don't know what else they have. This place,
the owner is Greek, I'm pretty sure he knows where to find some cooks
who can turn out the kind of food they offer.
Me, I'm happy with my garden mix and bacon omelet, whatever they
do just give me that and my cranberry nut muffin to go and we'll get
along just fine. Heh. Not that I'm a creature of habit or anything. Much.

Googling around, that looks right. To me it was always just Perkins.
