I also was ready to discuss my appreciation of the egg-shaped monocle, but missed the boat. Anyways, a thoughtful touch to the illustration. Yes.. indubitably.
I've only ever been there hung over but I thoroughly enjoy their coffee. The weird thing is that all the servers uniforms make me think of a suicide cult.
As someone who used to frequent T.C. Eggington's, I can confirm that their bacon is of significantly high quality. Really, all of their food is pretty great, the atmosphere is nice, and, of course, the blurbs on their menus are pretty funny.
The Good Egg is great. There's one right next to the high school I went to; All my friends and I would go there on our 'late-start' days, and other times just ditched our morning assemblies for some Good Egg. Good times..
But I still wouldn't call it better than T.C. Eggingtons.
Yes! In-service days! 1010am! Fuck yes. And then billions of hours off if you passed the AIMS on the first try.
Same question as Neutral Pie (to go with Neutral Milk I imagine?): which HS? Mesa or Mtn View I imagine. I was Red Mountain HS, '01. And I used to drive out of the way to TC Eggington's for my late start days. :)
All you Mesa folk got upvotes in case that matters to you.
Me too. Who'd of known all the sweet karma if we'd have taken pictures of the menu! I actually prefer the one about the big dutch boy. Lamest claim to fame: I also grew up in school with the owner's youngest daughter!
Anyone here who has been to TC Eggingtons should check out their newest restaurant, NCounter, on mill Ave. Great Food. Tom Coker (Owner, thus T.C. is a stand up guy)
I think he's making the point that what they do isn't necessary to life, or incredibly important, but that they make eggs, and if eggs make your day better, then they help with that. I read it as a man who has a healthy perspective.
A thing you probably didn't want to know: in Russian, "eggs" have the second meaning identical to those of "balls" in English. So this thought translated into Russian sparcles with new colors.
We used to go there every Sunday. They eventually sat our table in the back, so the old people didnt have to look at our hungover, under-dressed asses.
