What is your favorite greasy spoon?
Submitted by S@ngarang.
This is an easy one. The Bowmanstown Diner in Bowmanstown, PA wins hands down. This place has never grown beyond the traditional greasy spoon offerings, and I'm fine with that. The only exceptions to that rule are some locally loved Pennsylvania Dutch recipes like potato filling (mmmm), pork and sauerkraut, and french fries smothered in gravy. Being the only 24 hour place in the area, I ate way too many post midnight meals here when I was in my late teens and early twenties. Hot roast beef sandwich and fries (or filling) with gravy. Stick to the ribs food that always hit the spot. I don't get there nearly as often as I'd like now that I'm married.... my wife isn't a fan of such places. But I'll take nearly any excuse I can to get back. It may not be fancy, but it's great, traditional, meat and potatoes style food.
