Cheap Eats 2006

This breakfast hot spot offers all the standards: everything eggy, including a range of tempting benedicts ($7.50-$10.50), French toast ($3.95-$7.50) and waffles ($3.95-$4.95). On weekends, you'll wait a while, but it's a cheerful, kid-friendly scene. A smoked-salmon omelette ($7.50) was flavorful with cream cheese, scallions and spinach. Lunch options include pastas ($7.95-$8.95), salads ($2.95-$10.95) and sandwiches ($6.50-$7.50); dinner is more of the same, with the add-on of a few unique entrees like duck with plum sauce ($15.95).
