Seriously some of the best home cooking, all you can eat food around. Even more so at a nice airport with great service. $8 all you can eat; what could be better! Great GA 100 dollar "hamburger" flight!

Fly in... enjoy lunch at the neat terminal cafe... $8 all-you-can-eat. Sit outside and watch aircraft circle in the pattern. Worth the trip.
