Well, Memorial Day is in the rear view and summer is full steam ahead. For many of my fellow riders this would mean cruising the back roads and enjoying the freedom a Harley has to offer. This year is going to be a little different for us with the new babe but well worth it.
I did have the pleasure of venturing out this past weekend to one of the many Diners, Drive-ins & Dives from the Food Network show. It's kind of a hobby of ours to hit up as many as we can when traveling.
The Smokey Valley Truck Stop is located in Mt. Olive, Kentucky. It was featured for the coconut cream pie (vodka included), homemade biscuits and the Smokey Burger. In my opinion, and who am I but an unknown voice coming to you thru the internet, it was one we could have passed on.
The place was small and crowed for 2 pm on a Friday so we took that as a good sign unfortunately the staff was not prepared (or maybe it's always like this) so the most of the open tables were still in need of busing. After waiting for some time for a server to arrive we placed an order for the Smokey Burger (which was huge but not overly exciting) and biscuits (which never arrived). After the food was dropped off, quite some time later, that was the last we saw of the server. It was a bummer since most of the 3D's are pretty good but what are you going to do?
So overall I would give the Smokey Valley Truck Stop 1 star overall.
Atmosphere: Smokey fits the bill on this one. The place is filled with KY smokers.
Cost: Two dinners & two soft drinks was under $20 but for the quality it was a little pricey.
Until next time...
