Sounds yummy! I have heard great things about the Garbage Salad from a lot of folks. Now I need to try it for sure, plus bring home some dressing!

The wife and I will be coming up from Florida in two weeks and we can't wait to try it. My sister in law eats at Grumpy's frequently and raves about the food. Especially the salad. Will see you then. Also hope we can snag a few bottles to bring home.

Saw some cooking show today. guy was making Grumpy's garbage salad, with poppy seed dressing, tats on both arms, very wispy think long mustache, I wondered if it was Upso on the show.

Oh crap! Yes that was me! I haven't seen it yet! I wonder if it's online?

What cooking show was it???

posted by gamegrrl on Jul 22, 2012 at 02:43:50 am     #  

Some morning show on I think channel 13 was on Saturday morningish, think like 10 or 11.

It was channel 13 called Full Plate, but the links to the video dont work at least not for me they dont.

Bummer. I couldn't even find a link to this episode.

Love the video!!!

I'm on a mission to try a Garbage Salad and buy some dressing. I just can't seem to get there during the week :-( I even work from home most days, but I'm so busy I don't even stop for lunch. sigh Someday...

gamegrrl: if you like reuben sandwhiches I recommend that as well. Grumpy's makes the best.

o my, I can see I'm going to have to be hungry! See you 8/24 for brunch, kiddo!

posted by nana on Jul 24, 2012 at 11:03:35 pm     #  

Mmmmmmmmmmmm! I love a good reuben!

I've been eyeballing the Take Out menu, and I see that you offer HOMEMADE CORNED BEEF HASH. Holy crap. Why don't I just move in with y'all?

posted by gamegrrl on Jul 25, 2012 at 09:10:12 am     #  

Corned Beef Hash and two poached eggs. Serious breakfast food... but the calories and fat...good god ya'll. Do they still have Monte Cristo Sandwiches?

That's good to know, INC.

My husband loves a good reuben. He has met me at Grumpy's for lunch once or twice, but the first time he tried a garbage salad at my request. Can't remember what he had the 2nd time, but I don't think it was the reuben.

Now I need to get him to meet me for a reuben, so that I have an excuse to get another garbage salad. :)

Molson, yes we still have the Montecristo!

As for the corn beef hash, I've been told by many it's the best in town ;)

it's probably because we use homemade corned beef :-)

Seriously.

you know...
you ARE allowed to leave your house for lunch now and then! :)

LOL upso! My stupid health keeps me inside when it's particularly hot or humid. Or cold. sigh I'm hoping to convince someone to schlep down there and bring back a Garbage Salad for me at the VERY least!

Maybe Upso will consider a delivery service, hah.

posted by Linecrosser on Jul 26, 2012 at 09:44:51 am     #  

We DO deliver! :)

There you go Gamegrrl.

posted by Linecrosser on Jul 26, 2012 at 09:52:05 am     #  

Arrrrrrrrgh! But I'd have to find some other peeps nearby who want lunch too: I understand it's an awesome salad, but $10 salad plus $10 delivery charge puts it out of my comfort zone. LOL! I'm going from memory on those numbers, so apologies if they're incorrect.

posted by gamegrrl on Jul 26, 2012 at 10:32:38 am     #  

I almost forgot: PLUS a jar of dressing. :-)

Cant put half in the fridge and have it the next day?

posted by Linecrosser on Jul 27, 2012 at 05:32:07 pm     #  

Yes!!!

Totally geeked to hear that Sautters is stocking the dressing. Awesome. :)

Linecrosser, I can't eat old salad. LOL! I have some food 'issues'.

posted by gamegrrl on Jul 28, 2012 at 08:53:32 am     #  

Yes mom2
Sautters, churchills and kazmaier's all carry it at the moment!

posted by upso on Jul 28, 2012 at 11:17:37 am     #  

Wow...If Grumpy had known what a huge hit it was going to be , he would have gotten dressed a long time ago.
