Egg and I

In search of a new breakfast place, and since we've driven by this place several times, thought we gave it a try.

The place doesn't look like it, but it's pretty big inside.  However, they don't seem to have enough help for the day, which led to a not very pleasant experience.

For breakfast, we got the corn beef hash with eggs.  Decent presentation, and unfortunately, it ends there.  The whole plate was cold.  Then there was no taste to the corn beef hash.  I had better corn beef hash from frozen than this.  On top of that, a tab for 2 corn beef hash and 2 cups of coffee was $36, not including tips.  

The place was busy the entire time we were there.  However, they were short handed in the kitchen, and the owner was running all over the place, probably trying to manage the people, yet I don't see her running food to tables.  So, our server has way too many tables than he is used to.  He was polite and checked on us twice, but the kitchen was just short-handed.  And by the time he went back to get our food, it's been sitting there for at least 15mins.  I hope that the owner review the backups and reallocate help where it makes sense.
