Kaisers - American Bistro

The kids and I had an in town adventure today, which included a trip to Kaiser's resturant down (or up depending on where you live) in midtown.  The place has been here since 1918, originally started as Kaiser's Ice Creme Parlor on NW 7th and Robinson.  Opened by Swiss born Anthony "Tony" Kiaser who had the concept: feed people and make them happy.

Mr. C ordered a modified BLT, no mayo, so it was a BL sandwhich.  Served on a bagget and looking much more like a hot dog than a sandwhich it recieved "two thumbs up and a smile."  I managed to get part of the bacon and it was very good.  Ella went with the safe bet, Mac and cheese.  This was actually a side dish, as they do not have a "Kids Menu." Ella gave the Mac and cheese "one thumb down, and a smile."  The smile throws off the critique of the meal, and could have been brought on by the chocolate ice cream she was eating.  They both have he ice cream a "taste good," Ella did not like it because t was cold (go figure).  

I had the Reuben Sandwhich which was very good, perhaps not quite a taste explosion in my mouth, but tasty none the less.  

The dinning area was a bit on the small side, I found the music to be a good selection.  It was somewhat entertaining watching the wheels come off the resturant  while eating, the food server was not happy because 1/4 of the dishes he brought out had to go back.  A couple of times he tried to give the guy at the register the "what for" only to be dismissed by a "...man I don't have time for this..."  Also entertaining was watching the cook hit the bell for the server with exasperation, and a metal plate that was back in the kitchen.  Lunch today came to an end when the dishwasher broke and they ran out of dishes during the Saturday afternoon lunch rush.
