I have to agree with hamsamich, St. Lucie's cafe was good.
One outage I had so many meal tickets that I Ate free 2 times
a day for the entire Outage.

I Work For Food...

In the early 80's at salem the nuclear vice president named miltenberger liked this near beer drink,so he had it but in the new salem guard house on the left hand side in one whole machine filled with it.
Then somebody figured out that if you drank 6 of these beers it would equal 1 beer so they pulled it after about 9 months on site.It was in the cafe too.They were afraid the control operators would drink 36 to equal a 6 pack.

God I miss the 80's

sounds like shandy bass thats the nearest near beer drink i can think of dont usually find it here stateside though

Why drink "near beer" when you can have the full monty?

JessJen · « **Reply #28 on:** Mar 25, 2006, 09:53 »

its actually good stuff.....a shandy is typically a lemonaide and beer concoction the soda version just has next to no alcohol in it.

now back to the subject at hand....calvert had a tolerable semi cheese steak sammich last time i was there, while ano had a good salad bar at thier cafeteria......I cant think of too many others that stand out though

kaveman32 · « **Reply #29 on:** Mar 26, 2006, 02:15 »

have to agree the cheese steaks arent to bad at calvert...nor is the howard or romo.

LaFeet · « **Reply #30 on:** Mar 26, 2006, 02:18 »

Okay... I tried the cheese steak here (sans cheese) and it was pretty damn good.... especially with jalepenos

kaveman32 · « **Reply #31 on:** Mar 26, 2006, 02:21 »

how about a side order of fries with a sprinkle of old bay

Log one vote for Palo Verde, it was a haul each night and worth it.

I hear Fermi is closing their cafeteria or at least closing the seating portion and offering a limited selection.

I like the Sequoyah Cafeteria, especially on FRied Chicken day.

Does Nine Mile have any food service on site?

TN-Man · « **Reply #36 on:** Feb 27, 2008, 03:59 »

Brunswick.. Seafood and steaks cooked to your order. Probably get the seafood fresh from the intake screens. I haven't been there since '01 so it may have changed. Great food....

St. Lucie, Turkey Point, and TMI all have good onsite cafeterias. Pickering beats them all. But the best was that Winnebago that pulled up at SONGS. That was the best roach-coach I ever dealt with, and the burritos...ahhh the burritos.

Gaby's. They have a fleet of 3 or 4 of those now, of which I probably covered the lease on the first one....

..Palo Verde..what ever you want,,specially southwestern...but that IGLOO cooler from the house always has some homegrown groceries inside..

Diablo Canyon's cafeteria had some pretty good meals. A little pricey, but good food.

Had a few nice meals there this time (the tri-tip was esp. good), but they have been slipping over the years. Still good food if you catch it fresh, but along about 2330 the dishes that have been sitting under heatlamps since morning are looking pretty rough...glad they have the grill, too!

I just found out this outage that they will make custom pizzas! Call ahead at X4227. Order a Pepperoni, Pineapple, & Jalepeno, and they'll know who sent you!

Does that come with a side of Pepto-Bismol?

To each his own, but YUCK!

I remember 3 different vendors in the parking lot at Peach in the early 90s. They made some good breakfast sandwiches. Frank Mojica's burritos were always good.

The Ryder's sausage haus roach coach on the Lazy H

Gotta love a Death Dog heart attack on a plate w/lots of jalapenos

Have a bum like a Japanese flag, but worth it.

Yeah, I got food poisoning from the Lazy-H roach coach...it's the only job I've ever had that I was glad to get food poisoning, 'cuz it was better than going in to work... :/

2 sights that warm an ex-sailor's heart.....seeing the mail bag come over the lines during UNREP and landing on the deck, and afternoon changeover of the Gaby's morning truck and afternoon truck, so you (and the raccoons in the switchyard) can smell the freshly fried food for swings!
