| - Crusing around looking for a bathroom and something to eat... (cause and effect at it's worst) my mom didn't want to wait around for Original Hamburger Works to open, which sucks for me cuz I could just TASTE that burger!! :( oh well... we wound up going to First Watch... At first I was disappointed and then I was worried becuase that lil parking lot was FULL on a saturday late morning!
We came into their very busy foyer and got seated very quickly... which surprised me becuase I was like.... "ummm what about the other 20 people waiting for a table?" But whatev' all's fair love and good tables at resturants.
It took a LOOONG time for someone to even come up to us and ask for our drink order, but when we did - our waitress Sissy said she was brand spakin' new and was getting used to the ropes. I gotta admit, she was cool... she was patient and was willing to go ask the kitchen if the chicken salad had any onions in it... and it didn't btw - (yay!). So props for her on that. She even kept my mom's chickery spiced coffee aflowing and even got us some splenda for our drinks. I also have to mention that nothing on that menu is over $10! Score!
Our food came and we were starved! I tore into my chicken salad and it was goooood... creamy, slightly sweet, nutty and chicken-y. I was in love. I wish it came with two pieces of toast instead of one, but I guess it's okay. The fruit salad was good, but I wish it were more seasonal... the maranated salad was okay too... a little too sweet for my taste. The potatos I had screamed onion powder! I tried to power through it but the taste was too strong. I couldn't finish it. My mom loved her spinach and tomato omlette and can't wait to try it again.
Over all, we had a good time in the multi colored dining room in the middle of downtown... I left happy and not bogged down by a huge meal, which was nice. *sigh* brunch... it's what's missing from my day.
To my yelpers: I say go. Atleast once. Go when you want what I call clean food... something nice that will sit well in your stomach and is a nice polite way to start the day... sooo not a good spot to nurse your hangover! lol! and don't worry about the loaded parking lot, just try it anyway and see what happens. you never know, you just might get seated right away like we were! :)
