Waking at 6:40 this morning wasn't too bad, and although the hotel continental breakfast was no better than PRH food, I had an enjoyable time playing Hearts with my family. For lunch we went to a Ella's Deli, which serves a great number of Kosher foods and favorites of the Jewish-American culture. I started with a very tasty matzo ball soup, moved on to a well prepared Ruben and impressive coleslaw, and finished up with a rather typical banana split. While I thought the soup was reason enough to stop in at Ella's, the decor serves as another attraction. A diner might very well feel like the interior of the place is a result of a circus colliding with a toy store. Every inch of the place seems to be decorated with moving parts and loud colors, but it's so much more authentic than, say, the Times Square Toys "R" Us, that it isn't nearly so off-putting. It's definitely worth a visit if you're ever in the Madison area.
