Girdwood's "The Bake Shop" vs Jackie's Place
Posted: Mon May 08, 2006 7:08 am
Before the day begins in Girdwood, Alaska, the good people are up making some of my favorite Alaskan Breakfasts. Big ass sweet rolls and pancakes that make you want to say "Good Lord!". A unique Alaskan experience for all who enter."Restaurant and Bakery offering omelets, gigantic sweet rolls and huge sourdough pancake stacks. For lunch, sandwiches, pizzas and bottomless bowls of homemade soup. Summer garden dining. Open 7 days a week."
...
I guess I should mention my other favorite Breakfast place - Jackie's Place in Spenard. It's a classic southern style greasy spoon type place. I had a friend that loved the place because bodybuilders ate there (or maybe it was the pictures of the muscle dudes in thongs above the bar)
I guess they are both unique. Jackie's doesn't have gourmet coffee (or gourmet anything) but "The Bake Shop" doesn't have the characters or the classic / timeless waitresses.
