| - We met up with some friends here for breakfast while we were in town for spring training and I kind of wasn't surprised it was sooo packed.
Thankfully, we only had to wait 15 or so minutes to get seated. It was definitely a plus they serve free coffee and water outside to the waiting masses. I also ended up buying myself a beautiful bracelet for $10 from a lady set up outside.
When we were shown to our table, we noted the restaurant was slightly cramped, with tables pretty close by, to keep up with the demand. Our booth was comfortable enough, however....until the food started coming.
I'm a corned beef hash fan...can, fresh, homemade, whatevs. But I asked, just out of curiosity and was told very honesty that it was the can-type but they "make it very well here". Sign me up! I also got a side of pancake. Hubby got a pretty standard, two meats, a bunch of eggs and hash brown deal and did his hoovering thing.
The women folk ordered a mimosa that was made with some pink lemonade. It was actually pretty tasty. The curious thing was one of us ordered a soda and it was provided in two small tumblers. When we queried, we were told that's how they do it. Cool?
Food was well done, home cooking...you know, like when your mom's/husband's/lover's feeling guilty about something and wakes up early the following morning to make you a giant breakfast instead of your usual cold cereal or donut. No complaints here!
I can see why this place is so popular but next time, I think we'll give some other breakfast joint a shot, too.
