| - Under ordinary circumstances I'm not a breakfast person. However, the morning after Thanksgiving, it was obviously time to consume more food, so off to the Green Lantern we went. And a good thing too...I had the best breakfast I have eaten in recent memory, and left totally impressed (and full).
Breakfast foods are simple foods. Many places take advantage of the simplicity by rushing things along. You end up with edible but uninspired eats. Though my breakfast arrived shortly after it was ordered, it was cooked properly and with care. My sunny side up eggs were perfectly done, the whites well set and the yolks warm but properly runny. The four (!) large slices of bacon were thick and flavorful. I ordered the hash-browns crispy, and that's how they came. Everything on the plate was cooked just right and tasted super good. I could almost like eating breakfast out, if every place served breakfast like this.
Service was fast and friendly. Coffee was the usual diner style, weak and plentiful. The bar looked capable of producing a solid bloody mary, but alas this went untested. Prices were as cheap as the day is long. I'm docking a star for the corn beef hash--it lacked flavor and that all important crunch. All the same, I still highly recommend the Lantern for your breakfast needs.
