"The Allin’s breakfast selection features the regular suspects like pancakes, biscuits and gravy and omelets, but the restaurant’s signature item, the slinger, is what brings locals back for more. Not a dish for the faint of heart, the robust entree consists of hash browns, topped with a burger, followed with an egg, and then topped with homemade chili and cheddar cheese."

"If you’re not in the mood for something that unusual, there are biscuits slathered with gravy, crispy salty hash browns, a two-egg sandwich and of course, Allin’s version of that perfect meal to start your morning and stop your heart, the slinger. Concocted by Dave, the chef and owner here, Allin’s slinger is a stacked high Tribute to Cholesterol: fried eggs, hamburger, and hash browns, with a dressing of the place’s famous chili and Cheddar cheese."

Cliff Strutz

"Although slingers are often ordered as part of a late night, therapeutic post-drinking cure, at Allin's Diner they are the star of the breakfast menu."

"The draw, though, is the delectably offbeat: a formidable chili–and–cheddar cheese slinger with hash browns and a fried egg that’ll pay for your cardiologist’s summer home on the Côte d’Azur."
