Trying a new brunch place.
Turns out it's a very popular brunch place. If you don't have a reservation, I wouldn't even bother. The wait is long for walk-up.
Had the My Pear Lady mocktail - which has pear, lychee and non-alcoholic vodka. It's decent, but one was enough for me. I think I would've liked the Cucumber Refresher which seems to be pretty popular.
And here we are all sharing our food... lots of it.
First, is the Acai Ice Cream bowl. It has strawberries, banana, blue berries, granola and honey. It's really a very fancy açai bowl. Worth trying though.
Smoked Salmon on Toast, and the bread is challah. It has cream cheese, smoked salmon, white truffle onion. It's so good that I instead to take the left over home.
We had contemplated the Lobster & Grits or the Etuoufee, but that seems to be alot. So we went with Stuffed French Toast. Very light whipped cream, fruits, puree, and honey on top. The bread here is a croissant, not challah. It gives it super flakey goodness. Definitely different take on an old classic.
Original Chicken and Funnel Cakes, it's their take on Chicken & Waffles. Honestly, I enjoyed the funnel cake alot, the chicken was only ok for me. Can I just get the funnel cake on the side please?! (Actually you can, it's their Funnel Cake Fries - not the full cake, but same idea).
I will say, brunch can be intense here, the place gets packed easily. So having a reso is definitely, highly recommended. Food is not bad, some misses, but overall decent. Service is where it's a hit or miss for me. As the dining room fills up, we see less and less of our server. Oddly enough, I did see a photographer making us pose in all sorts of ways, then her cohort comes by with framed photo and for $25 a pop. While that's clever, it's also cheesy. While I do believe people do want to memorialize their outings, having multiple people in the group, it's less likely we'd buy multiple photos. That venture is kinda weird in this day and age.
Parking is no issue here, the parking lot is free and have ample parking.
