Legend has it that an old prospector named Zeke made his fortune
in the Big Alaskan Gold Strike of 1880. Like so many rugged
adventurers he set out to strike it rich and enjoy a Great new
life of prosperity and happiness.
Prospectors were rough, tough people. They worked hard,
endured hard ships and Just like hard working people today, they
knew how to enjoy good food.
Zeke was captivated by the hearty appetite of the rough, tough
prospectors. “These guys could eat more than an army”, he once
told his friends.

Zeke was so taken by the way these hearty men ate that he took
part of his mining profits and opened a special “Eatin” place.
