I'll go to great lengths to check out a good recommendation. That's how I ended up making a side trip to Indianapolis, just to try a slice of pie. But I wasn't leaving Ralph's Great Divide without a good meal. Thankfully, this little spot by the interstate was a great dive to enjoy. My friend Mike Hobbs turned me on to this place. He did so with tales of coconut cream pie, mentioning how a pie fanatic like me should appreciate a good slice. And so I did sit in my car with my computer, wearing strange clothes and sipping on tea, looking at this website for this place right off the interstate in Indianapolis. At the time, I looked longingly at the cool idea of chicken salad (it was over 90 degrees that one afternoon) and resolved to include it in my post-event adventures.
Delish!. Hot German Potato Salad! Enough said!
Hot Pot Aug. Before you take your children, remember this is a bar, so don't get your hopes up and leave in a huff. Leave the little ones at home.
It's all about the soup. This great mom and pop place has been featured in major magazines for a reason. The menu is pretty small and basic, but they do everything perfectly. Steaks, chicken, and the soup. HOT POT AUG is where it's at. Cheesy potato soup topped with a handful of croutons, and cheese, then broiled. They also have the HOT POT PIG which has ham or bacon, can't remember which, and pepper jack melted on top. Dinners come with your choice of salad, vegetable or potato (including the soup), bread, and homemade dessert.Can't get my punctuation right. That's 2 sides and dessert. When was the last time you had free dessert? I usually order "The Basic T & A" which includes steak tips, Hot pot aug, and a smaller salad with no dessert for a little less cash. It's just the right amount of food, and you can always share dessert. If you go for lunch you get a couple of pieces of candy with your sandwich for "dessert".
The building is off putting, and their hours can be strange, but go. You will not regret it.
