Another talked about joint that’s just around the corner on Market Street.
Arrive early. The sitting space really isn’t that large and a long queue formed 30mins after opening at 7.30a.m. We were lucky to get a table at 745am.
Ordered on:
15March2018


Avocado, tomato, jalapeno, corn, scallion, feta frittata – toast + potato USD15.95


*Tastes much better than it looks and probably the most healthy pick
Banana Raspberry Rice Flour Pancakes USD15.95


*Really nice airy pancakes. The banana gives that banana bread nostalgia. One can really taste the blueberries. Its a personal preference to enjoy incorporated fruit as opposed to a fruit compote over. The plus of incorporating it, is that you get those nice caramelized bits! A must order and to share as portions are huge.*
Smoked whiskey-fennel sausage, mushroom and baby spinach scramble with grilled chilli-cheddar corn bread and Jalapeno jelly on the side. USD15.25


*This was a bit of a hit and okay for some. The jalapeno jelly was really more sweet than anything else and went well with the eggs.*
Prosciutto, basil, balsamic roasted tomato and red pepper flake scramble with bread USD16.50


x3Lattes, x1Tea and x1 Hot Chocolate


Total Fed5  at17USD each with Tip with crew discount.

Overall it does taste better than it looks. The specials like the frittata and egg/omelette sounded good on paper but didn’t pack as much of a punch. The egg dish variations are probably superior in prep and selection to sears fine foods. Pancakes here done slightly different but gives those amazing ones done at Mama’s a run for your money. Overall, better than Sear’s fine foods but looses out to Mama’s on Washington. Top breakfast spot still goes to Cliff House which is a great place to visit and prob worth a few hours to check out the park and the bath houses.

The Bird
Recommended by Tim.S

We were looking for a bird logo or something, but what you should really be looking out for is a fox. Free Flow of iced water on-site. Just ask for the plastic cups.


Here's a break down of the menu as explained by them.
Naked Chicken, thinkKFC, just the chicken. Biscuit and chicken, you get like a half size serve but with biscuit instead of a usual burger fun. Fully loaded are the curly fries with cheese, cream and all the toppings. Chickens come either Spicy or Regular.
Ordered On:19thMar2018

Fried Chicken Sandwich USD8


*Good sized serving. The coleslaw and condiments work well with the fried chicken*
Naked Bird USD6.50
Curly Fries Fully Loaded USD3.75


*These were the bomb. Nice fry with a balanced out toppings of sour cream, cheese and bacon. Perfect bar food*
Chicken Biscuit USD4.50
Apple Fritters USD1.50 each


*A simple dessert topper at the end of the meal*
USD2 Wings during happy Hour 4-7pm
*These were the bomb! Hot Wings with a creamy cool blue cheese dipping sauce.*

The spicy chicken is a little salty and the spicy heat does mask the good flavor of the chicken. The stand outs here, personally were the fully loaded fries and the hot wings with dipping sauce. A great place to have classic hot wings and the awesome fries. The southern style chicken were pretty all right. A gungy place for some hot wings and great fries! The place serves up beer as well. For garlic fries, Super Duper still takes top spot

Another recommended joint that's just around the corner from parc55. The place prob sits 30 at tops so bare then in mind if coming here for a meal. Opens from 7am.

Ordered on:
20th March2018
Blackstone: Millionaire’s bacon, tomato, mushroom USD19

Comes with option of Hash or Salad and something else. Opted for the salad.
*A thing of beauty. The millionaire’s bacon is sweet, a little spicy and pretty generous on the amount for a serving. It goes very well with the thick tomato slice but could use more mushrooms. Both the eggs benedict and hollandaise sauce were on point!*
Total USD19+tips fed 1
Value 3/5
Ambience 3/5
Taste 3.5/5
Service 3.5/5

This particular dish is a little on the pricier side as compared to the rest of the meal options which are about the 15USD range.

This quaint joint has some interesting offerings different from the usual run of the mill omelettes and sandwiches.

Taylor street coffee is ideal for smaller groups and offers a different variety of morning breakfast choices. This place probably edges our Sears Fine Foods.
