Denny's: Love or Obsession?

L-O-V-E

Preston and I love Denny's. Our strong ardor for Grand Slams and endless coffee is the glue that bonds us together. Additionally, our mutual and respect for one another may also be a key component. But anyways, back to Denny's. 

Denny's is perfection. It offers breakfast ALL DAY LONG. It is constantly dreaming up new ways to meet their customers' ever-changing pallet, potachos anyone? It is always there for you, no hour is too late or day too sacred. And it's EVERYWHERE.

POTACHOS!!!!

Absence Abroad

No matter your destination endless pancakes and "Moons Over My Hammy" will meet you there. Everywhere that is, but Australia*. We should have know that this very fact was a clear omen that the land down under could never be our permanent home. A pancake puppy-shaped void existed in hearts last year.  Slices of Ozzie fruit cake and pounds of Thai bananas were unable to fill such an abyss. During layovers and long bus rides Preston and I would dream up fantasy feasts. And before we went to sleep each night we'd pray for a safe return to "America's Favorite Diner".

*But, Tokyo does! We passed a glorious yellow sign during our four hour layover in Japan. Unfortunately it wasn't our stop; fortunately we were just twelve hours from 'Muurrrica.

Remarkable Times at a Remarkable Place

Our summer return ushered in a new era of Denny's passion. A mid-morning celebration for our three year anniversary opened this new chapter. But this isn't the first time that Denny's has been a backdrop for my grandest moments.

Best Moments at Denny's:


  • The annual breakfast spot before childhood trips to Disneyland
  • My victory dinner after I was elected middle school Vice President 
  • During said victory dinner my mom surprised my sister and I with tickets to Disney World
  • A whole wheat pancake frenzy at the beginning of my sophomore year of college 
  • Celebrating New Year Eve's in style with an orange themed three course meal
  • A snowy double date during my first visit to Washington
  • Concocting my Honors Senior Thesis with old friends over endless cups of coffee
  • The day that Reno taught me that Denny's serves beer

The Hobbit Hole Breakfast & a peak of Honey Cake French Toast

Denny's Second Breakfast Menu has changed my life. I now realize that is so much hope and goodness in the world. And I encourage/command everyone everywhere to go and bask in its breakfast glory. CARPE DIEM. YOLO.

And from a less biased source:
According to my mom, a Tolkien disciple, the only thing missing was ale. Luckily I know this Denny's in Reno...
