| - After an intense workout at a new gym, brunch was much needed. Renee mentioned the Fine Diner, I've heard about the Fine Diner, read reviews and looked at photos but I was hesitate because I thought it would be super busy before lunch time on a Saturday, Renee reassured it should be okay.
The Fine Diner is located in the heart of Inglewood, along 9th avenue. It was a Saturday around 1145am when we arrived and to my surprise, we got a table right away! We were seated near the main entrance next to another table which felt quite cozy. The dining area is super cute and seems small but apparently there's more dining space in the back!
Shortly after being seated, we were handed menus and poured waters. I heard good things about the stuffed toast and it looked even better when the table next to us got two orders of it....super tempting but I was feelin' meat and eggs. Renee and Julia both went with the spicy bacon frittata and I was torn between the duck benny and the sausage benny so I asked the server for his suggestion but he didn't help much "both are good" he says. :\ sometimes I just need someone to tell me what to order and I was hoping he would!!!... I decided to go with the sausage benny. After we ordered, I noticed there was a board which the featured specials on one of the walls. I really wish the server would have inform of us the specials right off the hop because normally I would try the specials out! But that's okay....:(
We were chatting away when our orders came. The frittatas looked like a nice size with a mix of jalapenos, cheddar and bacon, served with some tomatoes and fresh fruit! My benny came with a mix of potatoes and fresh fruit as well. I cut the egg in half to see the nice bright orange yolk...mmmm!!! The potatoes were great, regular potatoes, purple yam, orange yam - a great mix and they were crispy which made them even better. The sausage was house made beef and pork, really tasty and tender. The hollandaise on top, made for a picture perfect benny. Renee and Julia seemed to really enjoy every bite of their frittatas.
I'm definitely a fan of the Fine Diner and will be back! My only suggestion would be that they should introduce themselves as well as any specials that are featured!
