Any place that serves champagne in a can is #1 in my book.
The only place I've ever been that did so is the Trailer Park Lounge.

(For some reason when I took this photo, I thought it was a lot better than this.)

( I'm never willing to pay the $7 for the can of champagne, but just the fact that it's an option makes me happy.
My favorite thing to get: nachos with cheese and vegetarian chili.
Something else I've tried: sweet potato fries. Not my fav since they're covered in cinnamon & sugar. However, I'd say that's pretty authentic as far as trailer park cuisine goes.
When to go:
Birthdays, Happy Hour, & when you're already drunk.
Last year a group of us went for my friend Anna's birthday and the waitress brought her a moon pie with a candle in it. <3
PS. Don't let the name and menu fool you - the prices are ironically on the high side.

Ohh! Oh my! Come now, make haste to your weendow! A foundation of porcelain forms een silence, and zee whorled ees blanketed anew!

FEATURED ARTISTS:
Math-You Namie www.mathyounamie.com

Evoking fragmented and dreamlike imagery, print-maker Lindsay Bourget incorporates woodland animals, typographic symbols, ornate borders and tango sheet-music in her mixed-media works.
Lauren Bahr www.laurenbahr.com
Combining elemental shapes with a warm palette of flesh and jewel tones, Lauren Bahr's kaleidoscopic 'triangulations' celebrate the crystalline geometry of shattered forms.

Armed with high-power projectors, the A/V agitators of the Glass Bead Collective tackle contemporary issues by altering physical spaces. Their multidisciplinary works include 'guerrilla art projections' at Ground Zero, several documentary films and numerous site-specific video/sound installations.
