Delicious gift from heaven

That grilled cheese with chips and a pickle; those little black muffins; that free ice cream!!

Oh how I've missed it.  But today I found it...


Beautiful. Delicious.

I've been craving Jason's Deli, oh, since the day I left Austin. And with the Texas weather we had today, the craving was out of control. So I finally drove myself 30 minutes out to the ONLY Jason's Deli in the entire state of Pennsylvania.

Don't these people understand how good this place is?!? These babies should be all over the place. But no, not here, all the restaurant space is taken up by mom & pop italian restaurants (more than you'll ever see in your life), irish pubs (refer to 'Kiss Me, I'm Irish' for more background on this issue), and pseudo-Mexican Restaurants.

The place was empty with the exception of a few families; sad that people around here have no idea about this delicious gift from heaven, but fine by me-now I could savor my grilled cheese in peace.

And that I did. Savored every bite of that specially 3-slice cut sandwich. SO GOOD. For a moment, just a moment, I thought I was in Austin and it was sweet.

Two little black muffins, a grilled cheese, chips & a pickle, and free ice cream later, I left Jason's Deli one happy, full camper. 

(Thank you God that you put the only Jason's Deli so close to me and not hours away. That would just be a tease...and I'd probably, sadly drive hours for it.)

We have some Jason's Delis down here...and I've never been, but after reading about your delicious grilled cheese (and free ice cream?!) I think I'm going to have to go check this place out :)
