| - Since we are always on the lookout of a GREAT breakfast place, we had to check out the new Another Broken Egg when they opened. My husband travels quite a bit and had been to Another Broken Egg in Florida and he loved it. so we thought it would be worth the trip to Southpark to give it a try. We actually live much closer to the Ballantyne location, but after reading the initial negative reviews we thought it might be best to skip that one for now and try this one instead. We're glad we did!
We ventured in their first opening weekend. We fully expected some hiccups along the way as they were still new and getting their rhythm down. We anticipated correctly, but it was nothing major. The waiter was such a sweet kid, but he was clearly a bit nervous and a little frazzled. He did just fine though. Several staff members stopped by to check on us and the Manager came over to chat with us for a few minutes, too. He was about nice as one could be. He was engaging, he clearly loves the company and his job, and he seems to have a great rapport with his staff.
First off...the restaurant decor is so adorable and very homey! It's a great first impression! The menu is quite unique and extensive without being overwhelming. I love that their menu includes breakfast and lunch items and is available at all time. (I'm not always a breakfast food person, so the lunch items are perfect for me!) Some items have a Cajun/Creole influence, which some people seem to enjoy.
We opted for a couple of appetizers (I LOVE the idea of appetizers at breakfast!)...we ordered the Monster Cinnamon Roll and the Biscuit Beignets (with Honey Marmalade dipping sauce). I didn't try either of them (I'm trying to low carb...UGH!), but my husband and son enjoyed both of them very much. My husband was especially fond of the Beignets and for someone who doesn't like Marmalade, he couldn't get enough of it!
My son ordered Steak and eggs. He ordered his steak medium, but it came out medium-rare. He still ate it and still enjoyed it very much. The steak came with eggs and potatoes. He loved the potatoes! My husband had the Southwest Scramble and he loved it. I had the Cafe Burgers (sans bun). I ordered it Medium, but it came out almost rare so I had to send it back. Once it was cooked correctly and they remembered to put the bacon back on, it was delicious! It was seasoned nicely and the toppings were delicious...Bacon, Blue Cheese, Sun Dried Tomatoes, Roasted Onions, and a Garlic Aioli. YUM!!
We liked it very much and will be sure to go back.
