Nostalgia is an emotion best experienced with the taste buds, which is why proper cheeseburgers are always wrapped in original Norman Rockwells. Dine in old-fashioned style with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of American fare at Michael’s Family Restaurant in Chesterfield.

Michael’s Family Restaurant's classic American menu stacks plates with specialty sandwiches, old-fashioned burgers, and breakfast served all day. Diners can greet the morning or grudgingly acknowledge the midafternoon with breakfast items such as three-egg omelets and homemade hash browns ($4.50–$5.75) and the Lumberjack Stack—four jumbo pancakes, two eggs, and a choice of meat such as old-fashioned Dearborn ham ($6.75). Michael's lunch offerings volley flavor with bread-based delivery systems including the steak hoagie roll ($5.75) and the turkey Reuben ($5.50). Transport your face to the Americana of yore with an old-fashioned burger meal—two burgers, seasoned fries, and an old-fashioned shake or malt ($7.50; $8 with cheese).
