| - I like fruit and vegetables to go with my breakfast. Guess what Crackers has? Fruit instead of potatoes for only $0.99! The fruit was delicious and fresh. The melons were really good and the strawberries were typical of this late in the season. I liked them, but not as much as when it is height of the season.
I had the spinach omelet with bacon. What a combination. I have been all over for breakfast and have not had this combo! It was topped with swiss cheese which I thought I would not like but was willing to try it. It was a good touch to the bacon, spinach, and mushrooms.
The service was great and we beat the Sunday breakfast crowd. The restaurant is comfortable and clean. Our food was brought out quickly and hot.
Something I always look for when I go to breakfast is the amount of strawberry jams they offer. This place keeps a full stack available. Why this is important is because as a child I hated when they were out of strawberry jam. This happens often. I don't eat the jam any longer, but I still rank a place higher when they take the time to make sure they have strawberry jam. They also have blackberry which Brad and I tried. Not my cup of tea, but apparently someone must like it since there was plenty of it too.
Brad ordered the carnitas skillet. It was a LOT of food. He could only eat half. He was surprised by the tortillas because it was not a thin, pale, cold, tortilla. It had some flavor and weight to it without being too thick. The carnitas and potatoes were spicy enough for him. The green chile was good, but not hat like at home, but for Arizona it passed. He also liked the salsa.
The thing he liked the most was the one piece of french toast. It was HUGE!!! Looks are also deceiving. I saw it and thought that it must be heavy, but it was not. It was light and fluffy and good. I can always tell how good things are by how much syrup he uses. He did not use much. The added touch was also warmed up syrup brought to him with his french toast. He licked the plate and was satisfied.
I have waited to visit this place since I moved here in March. It was worth the wait!
