| - Looking for an omelet using my Yelp Mobile application I ended up at Radio Maria. I was hoping Sam's Cafe was open with a more diverse breakfast menu, but to no avail, I would head to the trendy (read: odd) Radio Maria. Not Maria's Radio, because who has a radio now a days? I don't even have an Pod so I am one to talk about technological advances.
We were seated on a Saturday afternoon during the beginning of Restaurant Week in Champaign. They were setting up all along the street for a big festival, so I figured we should get somewhere quick before all the drunks show up...haha. There is a dining room (which is where we were) and a bar/tapas area. Seems really trendy, hipster, and urbanized. You're definitely not in the suburbs of Chicago anymore!
I went with the Greek omelet that comes with house potatoes and beer bread, to which I got fruit instead of the potatoes. I also got a grilled plantain. That's a banana (almost, different genus species for all you biology nerds out there).
Total for two people was under $20. Waitress was great refilling my water, but she had too much lipstick on and didn't really seemed pleased to see me, which was disappointing because most people love to see a short, quirky, medium skinned Yelp Elite member. Not Ashley, who was our server. Oh well. Will I go back? Probably not, but this makes the grade. I used that pun because I am a teacher who teaches things to people...hahaha.
TURN DOWN THE DAMN RADIO, MARIA.
