| - I am familiar with the Park Cafe, but not for the usual reasons. This past Friday, I ate here for the first time, which was in fact, the second time I had done that. I met up with a friend and they suggested we grab some breakfast. Interestingly, we were patrons of the Mediterranean restaurant which previously occupied this corner of Old Litchfield Road and Wigwam Boulevard.
My dining companion lives in the area and had recently visited Park Cafe. And as I suspected, it was a great recommendation. Immediately, several items jumped off the menu, including the daily special which was an Italian Sausage Frittata. For breakfast, I chose the Goat Cheese and Chorizo Omelette.
My omelette was really good! The cheese was creamy and complemented the spicy chorizo. And the fried potatoes included a unique variety (sweet, regular & purple) that were attractive and tasty. And my companion's breakfast was equally delicious. She ordered the Chilaquiles. This dish had a sauce that reminded me of enchilada sauce, but with way more flavor. I shared her dish and wanted to lick the plate clean.
While we were sad to see the previous establishment close, Park Cafe is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. It's a beautiful area which makes dining on the patio very inviting. And after witnessing the line of folks waiting for a table on a Friday morning, I would wager that Park Cafe will be around for a while.
