Daily Cafe on Sunday

Sunday, after church, we went to Trader Joe's to get food so Robert wouldn't starve while I was at the beach. We drove home to unload and then walked over to the Daily Cafe for brunch. We use to live 1/2 block away from it and went more often then than now. They start you out with a basket of biscuits and scones. The menu has great choices and is always fun to select something good.

Robert started out with the "baked gravenstein apple with whipped creme fraiche and pistachio nut brittle."
My first course was the "custard baked French toast with Italian plum and dried bing cherry compote.



We both ordered the It's Oktoberfest in Munchen! - 2 fried eggs (but we said over easy and they were really 'easy') with pan fired has bratwurst, red gold potatoes and capers. I loved it. The potatoes were even better for dinner (I took the left-overs to the beach). It may not look good to you, but trust me, is was. I love capers and need to remember to use them for breakfast egg dishes.
There is a new Sammy's Flower Shop on Lovejoy in our neighborhood now!
