Editorial Review

Actual Agatha Christie era railroad car makes for super-noir mise-en-scene. Serving crooked cops and sleepless screenwriters choice prime roast beef hash and sometimes superb steaks 24/7 since '21. We'll go for breakfast when their extortion rates become almost acceptable. Joe's Special (zesty ground beef, onion, spinach and egg stir-fry with muffins and hash browns) will have you signing whatever is put on your desk to board the crazy train.
