I’ve blogged about Comet Cafe before and referred to it as “the Chicago Diner of Milwaukee”. Every time I go there, it just keeps getting better and better. The first time I went there I was eyeing this sandwich called the Open Face Meatloaf Sandwich that could be made vegan. The description read that it was Comet’s homemade meatloaf with a scoop of chive mashed potatoes, all on top of rye bread and covered in beer gravy. I was finally brave enough to try it last week when I went to lunch with my friend Chris.
I was expecting it to be absolutely ridiculous, but WOW. At the bottom of the plate there are two slices of rye bread, topped with two huge pieces of seitan meatloaf, a scoop of mashed potatoes, a really thick beer gravy, and fried onions and tomatoes. It was sooooo good.

YUM!
Holy wow! I feel stuffed just looking at that plate. Milwaukee is awesome.
I have a question on the hypnosis cookies. With the pre-cooked dough freeze well? My sister has a Alice in Wonderland themed charity function coming up. I want to make these for her ahead of time (of course I will have to cook some up immediately for myself and blog about it and the book release).
Hey!
Yeah, that dough would freeze very well. Just do the rolling beforehand and stick the log in the freezer. Then when you’re ready to bake, let it defrost a bit, slice, and bake!
Perfect. Would you be able to e-mail me the recipe. I didn’t test that one.
