| - They don't have soymilk. Or any non-dairy options for coffee. But...isn't this a breakfast/MORNING ONLY restaurant? And aren't we in North Scottsdale? Just checking.
They do have a coffee on the menu that sounds delicious, but is of course "already made" and they can't serve it without the condensed milk. I would have totally ordered it and went without milk if it meant I could partake in the yummy-sounding cardamom and cinnamon infusion, but alas, they said it was already all pre-made.
Anyway, we had to wait about 15 minutes for a table in a space that seems like it could easily fit ten more tables in there (I only walked in the first room, not the second one), so it just felt oddly empty. Service was nice, everyone was friendly, food didn't take too long, and the food was pretty good.
I ordered an egg white omelet with spinach, asparagus, and mushrooms, with a side of sweet potato tots. The tots were alright, but not nearly as delicious as I'd hoped. Something about them was off. Omelet was fresh and tasty, but swimming in butter/oil (order it dry if you're watching your calories!).
My friend and I split a 1/2 order of the caramelized banana and pecan french toast. I have to give the restaurant credit for offering half orders of ANYTHING, but especially for something so heavy and delicious sounding. Don't you hate going to brunch and having to decide between being healthy or a total glutton? I only ended up eating a few bits of the cloyingly sweet french toast, which wasn't the worst I've had but I certainly wouldn't order it again (and I LOVE sweets).
Also, *they close at 1pm*, and we were still eating at 1:10 and were probably the last people in there-they clear it out by closing time! This is NOT the place for a lazy Sunday morning brunch, unless of course you are a very early riser.
I would only go back to try out their infamous waffle dog, but I need to be up super early and bring my own coffee if I plan to go for brunch one weekend!
