"Norma's meringue pies are impressive. This tall beauty is peanut butter chocolate, its silky cool layers so beautifully abetted by their ethereal crown and its scattering of crunchy nutmeat."

"A real Lone Star cafe breakfast: chicken fried steak, a pair of sunnyside-up eggs, hash browns, pepper gravy, and biscuits. In the background: my check, delivered with the meal."

"A close-up suggests the crunch of the crust and the richness of Norma's sausage-dotted gravy. The beef is a well-tenderized cube steak, easy to cut with the edge of a fork."
Michael Stern
"Nice spuds, although next time I am going to ask the waitress (hoping she won't hit me) to have them well-done. Those crunchy outside parts are divine."
Michael Stern
"Note the sign hanging over Norma's dining room. The counter is to the right of the photo."

"Morning in Dallas: the sun turns Norma's an inviting shade of gold."
Michael Stern
"From my seat at the counter, the view at breakfast was of fresh pies getting sent forth from the kitchen."
Michael Stern
"Unfortunately, we were at Norma's Cafe too early for most of the pies. Which means we had to 'settle' for this cool lemon pie, with meringue twice as tall as the filling."

"The migas is a combination of scrambled eggs, cut up bits of tortilla, jalapeno peppers, tomatoes, onions, jack and cheddar cheese. In the background is the crispy hash browns and the homemade salsa. A couple of hot tortillas came on the side."
