The Pony Express Coffee Shop
Wading through my holiday emails, I followed a web link that lead me to a copy of this old menu, circa the 1940s or 1950s.

It's from a Salt Lake City restaurant I'd never heard of before: The Pony Express Coffee Shop. Located on 20 East and 200 South, it served classic diner fare.

Customer who were feeling flush could order the "choice New York cut steak" for $2. A little low on cash? Get the Deviled Egg sandwich for .35 cents. Here's the entire menu

Now those were the good old days. Does anyone know anything else about the place? Post a comment and tell us more.
