"Joe's Special, a scramble of eggs, spinach, onions and chuck ground at the restaurant, tastes the same today as it did in World War II."
"And by all means, someone has to order Joe’s Special: eggs, mushrooms, ground beef, and onion in a heavenly hash."
"Maybe you order the Joe’s Special, a hash of ground beef, eggs, spinach, and onions that’s been widely imitated but rarely equaled, not because other line cooks lack the skill but because other places lack the ambience."
"Like many simple creations, a good Joe's Special is a deeply rewarding thing: earthy, juicy, and purely elemental."
