The Good: I like the vibe of this place, a pleasant neighborhood type greasy spoon, but not dingy and grease-spattered. Attentive wait staff. Good opportunities for people watching.
I had the Hog and Chick. Excellent hash browns...riced potatoes with a nice greasy bottom with pan drippings and pepper clinging to them. Just the way I like them! The strawberry jam with the toast was superb. And the coffee hot and tasty...no need for cream.
The bacon was curiously unflavorful. Next time I'd get sausage. Not sure what went wrong with it...not enough salt/smoke in the curing? It was cooked okay, just not a lot of flavor to it. (Of course, I still finished it...even mediocre bacon is still bacon!)
$12 for a breakfast seemed a bit on the high side, but not super exorbitant. Had the bacon been good I would not mention the cost. Still a fan though. 3.5 stars would be a better rating.
