Hey, your article is below. First, check this cool video out:

The days are getting shorter, the holidays are looming, and winter on the horizon. This is the time of year when most of us shift our eating habits away from light salads and breezy, summer tapas to heavier, more filling dishes as we prepare to hibernate. Winter may bring the perfect Florida weather but I can’t shake the desire for classic, comfort food this time of year.
When I think of comfort food, meatloaf is the first think that comes to mind. Granted, I never ate it as a kid but generations before me sure did, and they ate a lot of it. You’ll find it on the menu at nearly any old school diner and Foxy’s Café (while not a diner, per se) serves theirs as a melt. It’s a no-thrills sandwich: a quarter-inch slab of (dry) meatloaf, with lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese and mayo, all sandwiched between toasted rye bread. We loved the price (and the coleslaw side) but this melt just misses the mark. The meatloaf itself was much drier than we had hoped for, so thank goodness for the fresh veggies and mayo. Points to Foxy’s for actually melting the cheese, though. But at $9.39, you get what you pay for.
