A recent story in Midwest Living on hole-in-the-wall restaurants in the midwest mentioned the Cozy Inn, an old favorite in Salina, but also That Place, in Conrad, Iowa which is allegedly near Des Moines. I had not heard of Conrad or The Place or its great pie so mention here so I can remember to try to find and try.
What: That Place
Where: Off Highway 14 outside Conrad, about 10 miles north of Marshalltown
