Mary Bill's Cafe

I have commented on breakfast restaurants before since we usually go out for breakfast every Friday. Nick loves breakfast and I love it as long as someone else is cooking! We usually eat at Zorba’s. The food is decent and fairly priced, but the atmosphere can be daunting depending on where you sit, and the smell of the open kitchen lingers on your clothes. For the past two weeks we have gone to Mary Bill’s Café at Eutaw. The prices were unbelievably low and the variety of dishes impressive. My standard breakfast plate is two eggs, bacon, hash browns, and toast. Mary Bill’s price for this is $3.99. My meal was very good and I was able to choose between an English Muffin, toast, or biscuit. Nick was ecstatic because he tried the grits which were creamy and buttery, just like at home. This week I had the Viva La France which is four wedges of delicious French toast, an egg, and a slice of bacon. This is also $3.99. Nick tried a western omelet. This omelet was as beautiful as a picture, perfectly cooked, and tender to eat. The simple atmosphere makes for a pleasant, quiet meal, and my clothes didn’t pick up the odors of the kitchen. Although the drive is a little longer than Zorba’s, this will be a frequent haunt.

Silly Question for Friday

What's the weirdest breakfast you've ever had?

Mine was in Germany where they serve hard rolls and thinly sliced salami. I didn't like that very much. But on that same trip I discovered Nutella. Nutella is a peanut butter type spread that is made with hazelnuts and chocolate and the lucky people in Europe eat this on bread for breakfast. I've loved it ever since.

Nick loves breakfast. We normally go to Zorbas. Today we are going to the Ambassador Pancake House on 301. I'll let you know later how it was.....have a happy FRIDAY!
