    My favourite restaurant in town, great friendly service and a very vast menu with more items than any other greasy spoon restaurant of this caliber. 100% family owned, you will see the same staff every day working hard for the people of east van. Very busy during the lunch rush during the work week for good reason, this spot draws a good cross section of working class people and is a pillar of the Clark drive industrial community. Their burger patties are made fresh daily, they don't make milkshake machines like the one they have anymore, their omlettes are the best around (properly folded, not a bunch of stuff scrambled together) and although I am not a huge fan of their chow mien (the noodles are very soft), their daily Chinese special is the most food you will get for ten dollars anywhere in this city, unless you enjoy packing in two or three bons breakfasts at once, which does get to be a bit much if you do it too frequently. Not feeling grease? No worries. They have the biggest bowls of udon I've ever seen too. And nice salads. Lots of options for everyone.

    My favourite old school diner for breakfast. Awesome place for bacon and eggs, pancakes and omelettes. Prices are cheap! Coffee is really good too, surprisingly. I haven't tried the burgers but they seem to be very popular since I saw a lot of people ordering them. Fries looked amazing. This place is not fancy but it is old fashioned goodness that is rare to find these days. This place is a gem. The family that runs this place is top notch.

    Old school, cheap, and good.
    Real regulars go here and I doubt there are many more places like this left.  

    There is nothing gourmet or artisanal here... just a cheap breakfast and an old school grill,.. not even many windows..

    I wonder how long the property will last but it is in the most odd location,.. and that is why I like it.

    It's a truck stop cafe.  Very easy to miss when you're driving on Clark Dr either north or south bound.  Western and Chinese cuisine available.

    It's a three star, but a very enthusiastic three star.  It's family run and if I were to take a wild, wild guess, they live in the upper part of the building too.

    The day I came here, son(?) runs the front part of the business.  He seats you, brings menus, brings food and clears tables.  The rest of the family cooks in the back.

    Overall the prices are very cheap for what you're getting.  See pics.  Entire meal under $25 tip in.

    They know who the regulars are.  The son(?) asked whether I lived in the area or not when I went to pay.  He's a very, very pleasant guy.  Very mature for his age and soft spoken.

    Recommended for cheap eats.  Don't come here expecting anything fancy.  It is what it is.

    Parking on side streets.  VISA/MC accepted.
