Melk, Iowa City, Iowa

 I was very pleasantly surprised to find that I very much enjoy a restaurant that focuses largely on breakfast cereal (which in this particular eatery is served all day.  It is not just for breakfast any more).
The restaurant was started and is run by a young man who put together the interior of the restaurant in an Ikea like fashion that is very pleasing.  It is your typical bowling alley set up, but the lay out of tables and booths is nice.
So you walk in and are optimistic.  And not unreasonably so.
I tried the chicken tenders covered in Cap'n Crunch.  You might be thinking that this sounds truly awful, but is actually delicious.  Plus, as is true of most breakfast cereal, it is gluten free, which is a huge advantage for people with Celiac's Disease who want to eat things out that are hard to make at home.  Like fired chicken.  So that is reason enough to return, in my opinion.  You can get that with a delicious kale salad or with waffles and maple syrup if you want to go healthier or more Southern.  Then my kids say that the cereal milk shakes are another reason to return.  Check it out.
