| - I finally had the chance to try Amazing Cafe's brunch over the weekend with a friend, and it didn't disappoint! Everything was as delicious and beautiful as I'd hoped. I was been torn between here and Zenith for a truly vegan brunch experience, but the photos of Zenith's food just looked a little spottier to me and the reviews were more mixed.
My friend and I were able to sit down at a table as soon as we arrived. It was 12:30 on a Saturday. She'd arrived earlier and reported that it was packed, but by the time I got there things had cleared out substantially. There was a menu board full of enticing hot and cold dishes, brunch plates, juices, smoothies, coffee drinks, and tea. They also carry Gluten Free Goat donuts. You order at the counter, and your food is brought to your table as soon as it's ready. We both got the Smile, which is French toast with a fruit topping and a cashew cream drizzle. Our food arrived within fifteen minutes, and we started eating. I honestly can't ever remember having such a delicious serving of French toast before in my life...maybe the cinnamon apple and whipped cream topped monstrosity I had at Cracker Barrel as a child came close, but this version was fresher, lighter, and ten times more flavorful. There were blueberries, raspberries, and a crumble topping with toasted pumpkin seeds on two warm, tender pieces of bread. The generous drizzle of cashew cream lent the whole thing a richer taste than normal. I polished off the entire serving despite my original intent, which was to save half for a late breakfast the following morning. I already can't wait to come back for more French toast as well as their delicious-looking juices and raw Pad Thai. I have a feeling Amazing Café is going to claim a regular spot in my weekend restaurant rotation.
