Best Modestly-Named Eatery
English Muffin
Calling yourself ENGLISH MUFFIN because you're primarily a breakfast and lunch place is definitely an understatement for this full-fledged diner-like eatery. Even for breakfast, when said muffins top the menu as a vital ingredient in Benedicts, there an unusually large number of sides, including Italian sausage as well as links, hash as well as ham, sliced peaches as well as hot apples. For lunch, there are generous salads, wraps, clubs, grinders, and "charbroiled" chicken, burger, or steak sandwiches. The "daily dinners" (it's only open one day past 2 pm) include a veal cutlet with brown gravy and mashed potatoes; baked ham; fried clam strips; three versions of parmesan (chicken, veal, or eggplant), and a pasta of the day, plus daily specials, such as meatloaf stuffed with Italian ham or shepherd's pie, "just like Mom's." That kind of place. | 1989 Plainfield Pike, Johnston | 401.943.6100
