about

For a few years, the menu at the Magnolia Place Cafeteria at the Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton, Ohio was read by a man who affected a very broad "cowboy" accent. The "Miami Valley Cowboy" really savored reading words like "sausage," and never failed to sign off with his signature farewell, "an' I hope yuh guys have a gooooood one." The hospital's underwent a renovation in 2016 and the menu hotline service was discontinued. This final recording stayed on the line for a few years after, but has since disappeared. It's preserved here for posterity.

From the Directory of American Menu Hotlines, a printed directory of over 80 active phone numbers of the best pre-recorded menu hotlines in the United States.
