| - Yay for an update with an added star! If you read my initial 3 star review, I said I will return in hopes that the breakfast is above average. Well it was, and again the owner/chef was very much involved.
I sat solo at the breakfast bar. I enjoy this because the kitchen is in clear view and you can see everything that's going on. Including communication and hustle of the staff. The girl who cooked my food even came over after to make sure I enjoyed, and suggested something for next time. I LOVE THE INVOLVEMENT!! From everyone!!
But anyway on to the food!
First off, the don't have beignets anymore, boo :(
They were fresh and perfect and the mascarpone cheese (that is also a goner) went perfect with the bread and raspberry preserves. Instead they do offer a raison cinnamon bread. I passed because I had my heart set on something else.
By suggestion of the waitress I went with the ever so popular Huevos Motulenos. It is a mix of fried eggs, green and red chili, bananas, black beans, peas, and feta served on top of a corn tortilla. I loved this dish. The chili alone was wonderful and had just the perfect amount of spice and flavor. It also blended real well with the other ingredients. I wasn't a huge fan of the banana, but I do not really eat bananas anyway, so no shocker there. I could see how it accompanies the dish for those who do enjoy them.
I was told next time try to truffle eggs, which I intend to do.
Also, the orange juice was great. Some may not make a big deal about that, but a big glass of fresh OJ with a filling breakfast hits the spot!
It is great to see the success of this place downtown, and I will continue to be a customer and a fan!
