Lake Tahoe/Minden Nevada

The Old Post Office

-5245 N. Lake Blvd, Carnelian Bay, CA


- This place is on the north side of Lake Tahoe, maybe a half hour drive from Carson City, NV. The drive alone is one of the best things about this place, the road curves around the Lake Tahoe rim and the beauty is unrivaled.


- Go for breakfast, the chicks are cute and the coffee is good. Get the italian sausage links and anything on the menu. I have never had anything bad here and everytime I'm within an hour of Tahoe I stop by.


- The place is a local hangout for ski bums and the occasional richy rich who feels like slummin. It has great character and the food is top notch, drive out here and you will not be disappointed. Plus rich old ladies come in here every now and then ( I call them my 'retirement plan' ).



Russell's Bakery: Minden, NV

- No address for this place, its in the small strip mall across from Arby's near the Carson Vally Inn.

- Go for breakfast, come hungry or you're just wasting time. Get the sausage-egg-n-cheese breakfast sandwich on jalapeno bread.....just get one, its all you need. The sausage patty is the size of a burger and puts anything from McD's to shame. Seriously, come hungry.

- May want to schedule a post sandwich angioplasty.
