| | The eggs were just right, there was plenty of cheese and bacon, and the home fries were crisp and greasy, the perfect complement to half a bottle of ketchup. | | | Definitely not a greasy spoon, but the place to have the BEST fried chicken. | | | Also there's Cici's (formerly the Jayhawk Cafe) which is like a greasy spoon but it's more about coffee and pie for tweakers. |

| | Tucson Weekly : chow : Long Live the Greasy Spoon |
| | Emil noted the key dish at any greasy spoon is the chicken fried steak, so that's what he ordered ($7.45) with a biscuit on the side. | | | I went with another greasy spoon classic, the turkey dinner ($7.25) with meatball soup. | | | When I arrived at Chaffin's, the first thing I was struck by was how ugly the place is. It looks like it hasn't been redecorated for at least 25 years. |

| | Nothing like "greasy spoon" cuisine complete with a pile of buttered white (must be white) sliced bread and a mind bogglingly strong cup of tea made with sterry milk. | | | A big plate, really large pile of chips, nicely greasy egg, with the necessary pool of oil trapped in the folds of the white, and two of those cheap supermarket sausages deep fried until the ends were dum dum bullets. | | | I squirted the pile with tomato sauce (Morrisons I noticed) and tucked in. |

That's right, Rocco's was nailed for a greasy spoon violation. | | | The restaurant was also cited for having three "moist wiping" cloths "soiled with old food particles and not stored in sanitizing solution." Another violation resulted from an "employee toilet facility" that was not equipped with the required "self-closing door." | | | AUGUST 11--Already saddled with whiny employees, lousy reviews, and comparisons to the Olive Garden, the New York eatery featured in NBC's "The Restaurant" was slapped with six health code violations following an inspection last week, The Smoking Gun has learned. |
