Welcome to the IE! A food crawl along two major freeways :)

Welcome to the IE!!

 Today we are going to go through a fun food filled trip through the Inland Empire referred to as the IE by those who live here. We will cover some of my favorite eateries that are must stops even if you’re only on a drive through on your way to Vegas or on your way to the beach. Today we’ll cover my favorite steakhouse, two breakfast brunch places with awesome selections and a bakery that makes amazing cupcakes. These are all locally owned owed establishments that give you bang for your buck and of course serve delicious food with flexible options!

 Great steak located just off the 60 freeway in Diamond Bar, CA. The Ranch House Cafe & Grill, home of the $8.99 Prime Rib dinner that isn’t crap! The steaks are thick cut to order and are juicy and delicious. They also have an assortment of burgers and serve breakfast. I’ve never come for breakfast since I don’t rise from bed on the weekends if I’m not working before 12 pm.

Continuing down the 60 freeway you should merge onto the 57 and make your way towards the 10 freeway heading east along this stretch of highway is some amazing finds.

 

If you’re in the breakfast mood and it’s not after 2pm I recommend you hit up Kickback Jack’s/ BC Cafe to enjoy the world’s best (at least in my humble opinion) pancakes and Belgium waffles they are made fresh in house to order. This place is only open for breakfast and lunch and there is always a wait because the food is so amazing.

 

Waffle with eggs, turkey sausage and avocado. Enough to feed two people.

Heading North on Indian Hill Blvd will take you to my favorite bakery in down were you can indulge yourself in gourmet freshly baked cupcakes, these are to die for and simply scrumptious. Some Crust Bakery also makes fresh baked breads, cookies, fresh roast coffee, wedding cakes and dog treats. Selections vary by day and are all delicious.

Lastly is a place very dear to my heart because it is one of the few places I can take my dogs with me to eat. This place is located in Downtown Upland just off Euclid and is known as Molly’s Souper. This is a restaurant that even features a doggy menu. If you’re an optimistic pet parent and own a well behaved fur kid then Molly’s Souper is a must stop for breakfast or brunch with your K-9 wonder after a morning jog or agility class.

 

Feel free to experience any of these places. They each offer a robust menu with delicious options and everything tastes fantastic.

 

Till next time,
