| - Amazing space, great staff, good food. The lineup isn't quiet as bad as I was expecting from past reviews, and I was delighted by the ambience - low key, elegant, and welcoming. They were even playing my beloved swing music - which is guaranteed to put me in a good mood even in the morning! We both ordered Eggs Benny (mushroom with lemon cream and ham varieties) and asked for our eggs well poached. Unfortunately, we got them very undercooked, and had to send it back. However the staff was super-understanding and polite, and the second attempt produced what's probably the most delicious eggs I've ever tasted (Seriously, why doesn't everywhere offer free range eggs yet?). The rest of the meal was good (nice hash browns, good bread for the bennies, etc.) and they make a decent chai latte. Only issue was the price - as much as I enjoyed Vendome, $40 for breakfast for two is just too much, especially if it isn't out of this world amazing :(
