| - After hearing some good vibes about this place online, my wife and I brought the kiddos in for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Let me tell you all, It feels REALLY good when you make such a good decision in life. After sitting down in one of the comfy booths, the kids went to work on the bowl of starburst on the table, which was a cute touch. Great music was playing (Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, etc.) and we both commented on how the ambiance and decor of this cafe made us feel transported to somewhere...just...else, and in the best of ways.
After perusing the baked goods on the counter, we started with what I'd describe as a "tropical roll" which was appeared as a classic cinammon roll, only with banana, pineapple and strawberry. I've never had anything like it, and every single ounce of it was consumed. (Pretty good start, one thumb up...)
Then, we tried a breakfast sandwich and a breakfast burrito. Both were simply delicious, especially the sandwich which came on this amazing bread baked in-house. It had the sweetness of a brioche, but without the glossy finish. The meat (ham and sausage, respectively) was very high quality and the veggies also fresh and delicious. Just very, very good. The coffee was top-notch and the water (yes the water) was from a water cooler (not the tap), which was just one of those little details that made everything better. (For those scoring at home, two thumbs are now up...)
Lastly, during the meal the owner came by the table and told our monkeys (read: kids) that she had a special treat for them if they behaved. Of course they didn't because they're 3 and 5 and often make a strong argument to have themselves leashed while in public, but the owner certainly delivered the (baked) goods on her end! I assumed they'd receive a small, bite-sized treat, maybe crafted from some excess dough. I was sorely mistaken. With a big smile, she handed each child a full-sized, warmed "cinnamon roll on a stick" blanketed with their amazing icing. Not only the kids, but our faces also lit up like Christmas trees in July. I don't usually do back flips over cinnamon rolls. I had to apologize to the kids for eating so much of their treat. Oh, and let it be known that I wasn't even hungry anymore after the prior food. (Someone lend me a third thumb so I can put IT up!)
There was just a great comfort and warmth within this place, and when paired with such great food and service, it made for a very memorable dining experience. This place really is a treasure in this town, and I can't recommend it highly enough! Go try it out and see for yourself! One request - save a cinnamon roll for me...you know, for the kids (wink, wink).
Thank you Taste of Grace for getting our weekend started on such a wonderful note! We WILL be back...like, this week. :)
