| - I went on an overnight trip to Cleveland on Saturday for a mini getaway.
After a long night of drinking, I was in dire need of some breakfast this morning. While I normally love brunch, alcohol was the furthest thing from my mind. My boyfriend and I drove around searching for somewhere to eat that didn't involve paying for parking. I consider it really lucky that we stumbled upon Shay's.
The unpretentious diner was full of a diverse crowd getting their morning meals on. We were seated right away by the friendly waitstaff, and our drink orders were taken promptly. My coffee was fresh and hot, and they kept the refills coming.
Their portions were very large, and really inexpensive for all that we got. Because I was hungover, I ordered a huge breakfast of a Belgian waffle with strawberries, bacon, eggs and toast. It was all perfectly cooked, and was really delicious. I didn't come close to finishing it all, but it wasn't for lack of trying! My bf ordered a sandwich called the Polish Boy - a regional favorite consisting of kielbasa, coleslaw, french fries, and bbq sauce on the sandwich. It didn't appeal to me at all, but he said it was delicious.
Best of all, our meal came to $16 - less than the cost of one person for brunch, any given weekend. It wasn't a fancy place, but it definitely did the trick. I'd go back in a heartbeat!
