| - Bf & I had a couple breakfasts at Graze while staying at the Zona. For a resort, I thought prices looked pretty typical (a few bucks higher than what you'd expect) and the food was just A-OK, as there isn't much to screw up when it comes to breakfast.
Both times we were seated right away, which was nice. We opted for the patio since the weather was so pleasant (and because I insisted). Whoa, we were not prepared for the birds. It was seriously like we'd stepped into one of Hitchcock's scenes. They were everywhere, picking at people's food the second they got up and generally just being annoying. Our waitress said "ugh, yeah those are a problem". So, uh, do something about them?
Our breakfasts were okay. I opted for the 'Heart Healthy" egg-white omelet (both times) and enjoyed the spinach, tomato & onions with a dash of the hot sauce that was on the table. I was pretty bummed the second time I ordered it, as it was drastically overcooked, but I ate some of it anyway. The fruit it came with was pretty fresh and a good accompaniment. Bf tried a regular omelet and then a breakfast burrito on his second visit. Wasn't wowed either time, but ate his fill. The potatoes that come with most meals were kind of dry and bland so I'd suggest swapping for a fruit cup. You can't order a cup of coffee here, instead they bring you a carafe. Coffee was $7 for both of us and we weren't able to finish it all. Womp womp. I probably would have liked the variety of the Breakfast Buffet, but I wasn't prepared to stuff myself with $17.50 worth of food before noon.
My favorite part about breakfast? The mini jars of Bonne Maman jams & preserves. The raspberry is amazing and I made a mental note to order some online.
We did visit the bar with a group of our friends one night, but after a round of $12 shots we decided we could have just as much (or more) fun somewhere else.
