LAURITA: Well, I can't wait to eat.

LAUREN: I know, welcome!

LAURITA: That always makes me hungry.

Oh, this is cute.

LAUREN: I like it.

SERVER: Hi ladies, welcome to Miller's.

This way, please.

LAURITA: Thank you!

SERVER: Two today?

LAURITA: Yes.

Two hungry people today.

SERVER: Very good, this way.

We'll solve that.

TABETHA: Miler's Smorgasbord opened in 1929 with Anna and Enos Miller who had a Texaco station where Enos worked on rigs so it was a good spot for the rigs to stop when they were traveling and eventually, Anna Miller started making chicken and waffles for those that were waiting for their rigs to be fixed.

We have continued that legacy and it ended up being a Smorgasbord, and the most famous dish is Anna's chicken and waffles.

LAURITA: Oh, you said you wanted some soups.

LAUREN: Soups!

Do they have clam chowder?

They do!

TABETHA: Miller's Smorgasbord was the first smorgasbord, and the first breakfast smorgasbord of Lancaster County smorgasbord to me is just a fancy word for buffet.

LAUREN: So I heard that these red beet eggs is like a... specialty of Lancaster County.

LAURITA: Well, I'll have to try one.

Okay we've seen it all, are you ready?

LAUREN: I think I have my entire plate picked out in this head already, let's go for it.

LAURITA: Let's do it, I'm going to start over here though.

TABETHA: So most of it is Pennsylvania Dutch, Pennsylvania Dutch Cuisine is a lot of carbs.

PAT: A lot of carbs.

TABETHA: It's a lot of carbs.

PAT: Like, like bowtie noodles gets brown butter on it, you know, and we have baked cabbage and... TABETHA: Macaroni and cheese.

PAT: Macaroni and cheese.

TABETHA: And, about 82% is made from scratch so we make it right from our kitchen.

LAUREN: We know chicken and waffles as waffles and fried chicken but up here they do like a creamy chicken and gravy LAURITA: Yeah that's why I want to try.

LAUREN: It looks good.

LAURITA: Cause it's different.

LAUREN: Mm-hm.

LAURITA: We've got to say that we tried it.

Oh and, there's a carving station.

Mm, girl.

LAUREN: They have roast beef over here, that's what I would like.

LAURITA: Okay.

LAUREN: Hello!

How are you?

SERVER: Roast beef?

LAUREN: I would love some roast beef.

SERVER: There you go.

LAUREN: Where to start, where to begin?

LAURITA: I think let's start with this chicken and waffles, because that was a cool story that we read.

LAUREN: I feel like my eyes are a little bit bigger than my stomach right now, LAURITA: Ha-ha, we got a lot of food.

LAUREN: Just a little bit.

But that's what you have to do when you come to a buffet.

LAURITA: I know.

LAUREN: Get your money's worth.

LAURITA: All right, I'm gonna dig in.

LAUREN: The chicken is like the chicken that's in a pot pie.

LAURITA: The sauce is so creamy and delicious.

LAUREN: The sauce is so good.

LAURITA: But you know, the waffle has a little bit of sweet, but not too much, so it's like a perfect combination.

I mean this is just great Pennsylvania Dutch eating.

LAUREN: And I heard this creamed cabbage is like a staple of Lancaster County, so, we're really eating, like the... LAURITA: Like the locals would.

LAUREN: Thank you.

TABETHA: During our peak season, which really is from March until December, we only have a couple of months where it's down time, but we can get up to 23 coaches a day but we also bring in transients.

On a busy Saturday we could bring in 1700 people we seat 379 at Miller's and we turn those tables over six or seven times a day.

PAT: I have been here for 45 years, not giving out my age, or anything like that, and uh, I just enjoy it here, I enjoy the clientele that comes in, we call them our guests instead of customers.

The food is good, the service is good, they come back time and time again, and of course we are known for the shoofly pie too.

LAURITA: I've heard of shoofly pie only in a song.

LAUREN: I love that it's so warm, I love warm pie.

LAURITA: It's sweet cuz of the crumble on top, LAUREN: The local said that all their food is carb high and sugar high.

I can't wait till we get to our lodging.

LAUREN: Where are we going, mom?

LAURITA: We're going to the Amish View Inn.

LAUREN: Mmm.

LAURITA: Alright.

LAUREN: Gonna have some great views.

LAURITA: Oh yeah.

Thus...

BOTH: The Amish View Inn!

All right, last bite and I'm done.
