Iron Whisk

4/20/2019

Yesterday we decided to try out the Iron Whisk in Cobden which we'd heard good things about from our nephew.  It's not very big but it's nicely done, it also has a limited menu.  They have beer but it's extremely limited and it wouldn't surprise me if they eliminate it in the future.
We decided to split a cuban, which they do with pork belly, and an order of biscuits and gravey (b&g).  We both also ordered a Modelo especial although the Glue was tempted by their bloody marys.  The cuban came with chips and a pickle and was good but the b&g was even better.  They service it in a small cast iron skillet and it has two biscuits and is very filling. 
The Iron Whisk is a really good spot to have brunch which is nice because I like breakfast type food but don't eat it for breakfast very often.  It amazes me that a town the size of Cobden can have a place like this, a really good pizza place and a great tamale place.
On the way back we decided to stop at Von Jakob's for a quick beer.  I had a dark bock and the Glue had a hefeweizen.  Both were good and while I really like the dark bock one is probably enough for me.  Another thing that always amazes me is the out of state people we've met in the various places.  There was one group where some were from Kansas City and the others were Alabama and I overheard another group say they were from Missouri.  This on a rainy, crappy Friday afternoon and there were only a handful of people there.
Speaking of crappy weather, yesterday and the day before seemed exceptionally crappy which probably has something to do with how nice the days were before it.
