"Is it possible for food to be too intense?\n\nIf so, Hoof Cafe just might being serving it.\n\nI was intrigued to see all the atypical animal parts going into their menu, so I knew I had to try this place before the end of my visit.\n\nBone marrow doughnuts: a pretty subtle flavour behind all the strawberry-doughnutty goodness.\nTongue grilled cheese: a TON of tongue, wow. So thinly sliced, it's delectable.\n\nand last but not least...\nFoie gras French toast: the BIGGEST piece of foie gras I've seen in my life. And I've seen my fair share of livers. And it melts like the best of them. The French toast is rich and subtly sweet. Plump blueberries and a pat of butter complete this totally extravagant dish. ($26.)\n\nSo rich, I couldn't finish it, even sharing with friends - and I seriously couldn't function for about 30 minutes after eating.\n\nNext time, I'm trying the eggs Benedict!\n\nCome with lots of time - we had an hour-long wait for Sunday brunch at noon, perfect for exploring the Portuguese Village beforehand.
