Noodles; the roll out the dough, cut up in pieces, make it yourself variety. Nothing (except beignets which they douse in syrup...ewwww) seems more important to my wife and most of her family. They all make their own and ship them all over the family. In fact you can find my wife's recipe for hers on this link http://recipesilovebyrebbel.blogspot.com/2008/01/homemade-noodles.html . They are real noodle fans!
Me,......not so much. I am not a noodle boy. In fact, I even hold a grudge against Cracker Barrel that promises Chicken and dumplings and you get chicken and what look like noodles, not dumplings!
So when I was trying to find something in Indianapolis, I came across Indy's Historic Steer Inn.
They are known for their Beef and Noodles among other things like their meatloaf and namesake twin steer burger. Because we had 6 of us we got a good sampling of the menu. The waitress was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is a little 60ish, divey feeling. There was a crowd, as often is on a restaurant that has been on the Food Network.
The house made noodles were served with a beef gravy over mashed potatoes. They were the shorter fatter version, that I suppose if we at a certain other restaurant we would be eating beef and dumplings. They were good especially if you were a person that likes starch on starch.
The twin steer is the name sake of the restaurant. It was not cooked to order. It was two thin patties with special sauce and cheese. It was better than a Big Mac by a little.
Jodie, my stepdaughter ordered a black and bleu burger, and Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese had bacon and 5 cheeses. Both of these are good choices. Her significant other had Chicken Monterey, which he said wa good, although he might have thought it strange we were all taking pictures of our food.

Finally the one Grandson had a cheese pizza that he gave a thumbs down that in his opinion was like a Chef Boyardee pizza and the other grandson had Jalepeno Mac and cheese which he thought was good but short on jalepenos. At the end I asked my wife if she liked , she said it was o.k. But she would not Steer anybody towards it. Pun intended. The Diner is located at 5130 E 10th St, Indianapolis, Indiana
