You missed the Bridge Cafe's Baked Mac & Cheese. People travel for miles to eat it. Employees at Mark Joseph's Steak House come in to enjoy it and they have their own on the menu. I've been told hands down the Best. And a side portion is inly $5.00 (about 6-8 ounces) Just what I hear from our customers!
