"You say “Powder pork” and I’m like Pavlov’s dog Cuz I start gravitation towards Jake Roadhouse. I found this place in the summer of '08 when I first discovered the Friday night Farmer market on Myrtle Street. When I walk around, I could smell all the grill that was cooked, so I followed my nose. If you order a pulled pork sandwich at the stand, its about $1 more than if you just go over the street to their store. Her pulled pig is by far the best I ever had. The meat is perfectly marinated and very delicate. The sauce is brownish. I also heard from mouth propaganda that their raspberry lemon pancakes were legendary, so I had to try it one morning. It has a light sweet tar flavor. It was divine with a glass of ice cold milk. Your land breakfast is also very popular, which is very sweet of raspberry lemon pancakes, 2 eggs, sausages and potatoes. This is too much for me, so I usually only the raspberry lemon pancakes. Again, I am a creature of habit, so I usually always have the same thing, so I rarely venture from the two items described above. I have many friends here in the last two years and they all loved it. They are very easy to arrange even group meals. I have their covered back terrace with heated lamps for a large breakfast that I once hosted. The ambience of the place is very up to earth with red tablecloths, vintage license plates on any available space on the walls and sawdust peanut shells on the ground. Yah, kind of like Lucilles, but much more to Earth. Anyone who works there is super nice, including the waiting staff. I never had a problem there, whether in or to eat. You also have a few benches outside, which is great if you have just seen a movie a few shops down at the Krikorian Filmtheater. This picturesque Myrtle street offers a very nice walk to any day or night time. Big suburb. Parking is usually never a problem since there are many adjacent street parking spaces and private business areas. Simply read the characters and observe the parking times limits to avoid tickets."
