So yesterday morning I went with Atwater photographer Nick Meistrell up to the South Bay to shoot. We’ll about 5 minutes from arriving Matt Meistrell called and informed us that there was a fog bank that rolled in and you couldn’t see anything. Nick has grown up in the South Bay so we decided to go grab a bite to eat while we waited for fogtown to go bye bye. Nick had been raving about Eat at Joes and their famous breakfast “The John Wayne”. The way he had described this work of art I was already in before we got to the place. The waitress came by and whammy we ordered up 2 John Waynes and a half a John Wayne for Randy Meistrell who had joined us for the meal ( he was the smart one of the bunch). Our meals came out in like 5 minutes and then it was go time. This bad boy is ( I’ll list in layers from bottom up) hash browns, 2 fried eggs, sausage patties and then some sort of Mexican sauce poured on top oh and it came with tortillas to be used as a spoon. It was a meal and I couldn’t even finish it. Nick seemed to finish his in record time but didn’t look too good afterwards and Randy had no problem with his but as I said he was the smart one that just ordered the half. Great place for morning food.
