Well, don't look for Part one, it does not exist in this blog, what I refer to as Part 1 is the original Joy of Eating in Vallejo.
I first became aware of the Joy of Eating while I worked at Mare Island Naval Shipyard as an electrician on submarines in the 1980's. I was introduced to this delectable eatery by one of my former coworkers.
It is mainly a breakfast place with a train theme at the Vallejo location, however it is open all day long at the new location in downtown Suisun City (hence, the Part 2 title of this article).
You can experience joy too, just by stopping in to either location and finding out why I was overjoyed to discover the new location in Suisun just yesterday. They opened just a couple weeks ago there. Of course, foremost I must tell you the bread is TO DIE FOR. So, if little else, go at any mealtime and just tell them you are there for the bread, they will understand and sit you right down to get your generous portion of this tasty homemade bread that is truly worthy of a "secret recipe" moniker.
Almost anything else plays second fiddle to the bread, but you are welcome to order any of the fine side dishes to the bread. I recomend to go at breakfast time, so you can get the bread toasted.... And because the roots of the original location being in good old "Valley-Joe", you must know that there are some deep Portuguese roots there and of course the Joy will serve you a good flavorful linguicia with your bread/toast and a cuppa Joe to wash it all down with. I plan to "blog the menu" in a future blog posting, keep your eyes peeled for it!
If you are from "Benisha", you will understand the importance of bringing some of the Benicia culture out toward Suisun, this is a fine place that has gone literally from rags to riches and is really proving that it would be interested in becoming the destination for eating in Northern Solano county, it is just about there now I would say that many a business meal has been had there already.
Our company has a unique new home subdivision just opened in Suisun at Grayhawk a few weeks ago and nearly sold out already! Just ask me about the buyer incentives there and the live-work residential/commercial aspects of these places, right there on the marsh, only approved buildings to be going into that area.
