Here's a travel tip you seldom here: with in reason, a trip to the suburbs of a large foreign city can prove both enlightening and tasty. Not as far afield as it seems, Greasy Joe's - about as an appropriate name as you'll ever hear - is worth a journey beyond the CBD.
The best grease joint in the city and surrounding area, Greasy Joe's is pretty much what you're imagining. Heavy on the wood accoutrements and boasting a menu that promises both immediate satiation and future heart troubles, GJ's is hugely popular with, well, everyone.
For breakfast, try the signature Triple Bypass Breakfast, complete with tons of pig, a healthy dose of eggs, and a porterhouse steak. Yes, that's right, a porterhouse steak. Are you really hungry, or do you just think you are? Of course, there are lighter options but you can only enjoy a fruit plate in certain company.
Like breakfast, GJ's dinner also has a tauntingly titled menu item: The Fat Bastard. Three patties, a heap of bacon, and a bucket-load of cheese will food you into a coma, so be prepared. For those hoping to live beyond the meal, Joe's serves a plethora of a-diner meals, from Fish Curry to Baby Barramondi, Pumpkin Ravioli to a variety of steaks.
Joe's, which continues to grow in both size and patronage, is popular for a reason. Welcoming, filling, and relatively affordable, Joe's is worth the trip.
