Eggs In A Tasty Nest
2 eggs nestled in a bed of hashed browns with bacon,
grilled green peppers, fresh tomatoes, onions & garlic
topped with cheddar cheese and served with biscuits.
To ensure that we didn't have to wait long for our tables when we got there, I convinced everyone to wake up super early. I was shooting for a 9am departure time, but it was more like 9:15am. Not too bad! We found parking very easily since I am assuming all the Haight Street hipsters were still hungover from the night before. Thank goodness. By the time that we arrived there, it was full. Arg! We squeezed through the door and told the waitress we had a party of three so she instructed us to wait outside while a table was being turned over. Luckily, we only had to wait for three minutes, but they sure made sure to pack us like sardines against the wall. The online menu only showcased about half the stuff on the actual menu, but I still stuck with my original order of Eggs in a Tasty Nest and for the most part I was pretty happy. Let's start with the positives. The portions were huge and I like that the veggies were cut pretty crudely so it had a homestyle kind of feel to it. The hashbrowns were very crispy so I appreciated that since most of the time I go to breakfast spots, the hashbrowns are still that yellow color and it seems like they barely throw it on the skillet. Now on to the bad part. As much as I consider myself a garlic-lover, there was waaaaay too much garlic here. I had to dissect the order and pulled about six large chunks of garlic away. It really overpowered the dish and I left the restaurant somewhat in on a sour note. Too bad, this place really had so much potential. Sadly, I probably will not be coming back here again.
I would go back... I didn't think you thought your meal was that disappointing... and it's not too expensive for all the food you get.
ReplyDeleteI don't like having to pick stuff out of my food. I just like to eat it as is. Too much garlic can be a bad thing
