| - if you absolutely love brunch but have a breakfast type brunch hating boyfriend like mine, you need to come here . its true . with hoof cafe closed, this is the best brunch place of its kind .
i didnt give it a full 5 stars however, cuz of 2 reasons . ONE . communal table . this isnt really something to complain about, its just my personal preference . i DO like, actually more than like, communal tables at coffee shops . but for a sit down meal, no . i like my table space when eating . plus, i dont like feeling like im being staring at as i stuff myself silly . it makes me feel like a slob . TWO . im pretty small, 5'2" tall, weighing 105lbs, but when i looked at my bf's order, i thought there wasnt enough food, even for myself . there isnt enough food on the plate !! he actually ended up getting a burger afterwards . :|
so i ordered the P&L porkbelly pancake dish & the bf got the trout . mine was unbelievably delish ! pancake was soo fluffy, pork belly had the perfect amount of fat w the perfect crispiness of the skin and the egg was cooked just .. perfect . all the items on the plate went together so well . i wanted to go to the kitchen, convince the chef he needs to come w me, take him home, lock him up in my basement so he can live w me and make me brunch everyday :) my boyfriend's dish HOWEVER, while being absolutely delish as well, it was wayyyy too small . he said it was like having sex but not finishing . it was a complete tease . haha the amount of fish was smaller than the half of my tiny fist . the rest were just salad, hard boiled egg & little pieces of little pickled radishes . as im looking at the menu online right now, i just noticed they forgot to give him a toast too . boo :(
i'll be back, but definitely will be avoiding the trout .
