The Mimosa Madames had PLANNED to brunch at the Dairy Bar, a
new place for us. But turned out the Dairy Bar was closed for the holiday
weekend. Disappointed, but always ready with a “Plan B” we ended
up at one of our favorite places from a previous visit, Kitchen 64 on
Bouelvard. (As previously noted, we have a rule which states that we
can’t visit any place twice. But we have another rule that says we can
change any rule at any time if we want to).
Any of the restaurants owned by this family (they also own 3
Monkeys, Gibson’s Grill, Kuba Kuba, and I think another one in
Richmond ) can be counted
on for good food cooked with fresh ingredients. Don’t be surprised to
get ample portions either!
I had fried green tomato eggs benedict-mmmmm yumm!! Needed
a little more hollandaise sauce, though. Carolyn had (I think) crabcake
benedict and was quite satisfied. Mary had French Toast (a real shocker-not!), and was also
pleased. We ordered a pitcher of mimosas (more economical that way, as I
pointed out). I sucked my first one down lickety split. Nothing like drinking
a champagne drink with a straw! I just love a good champagne buzz on a Sunday
morning! My friends laughed at me, but they know they wouldn’t have me
any other way. The coffee (certainly a critical component of any brunch) was
excellent.
Our waiter seemed maybe a bit “out of it”?
Maybe he was new? He asked Mary if she wanted her French Toast made with white
bread, wheat bread, or biscuits. Mary just rolled with it and asked for white
bread.
I have also had dinner here several times. I have never
been disappointed with the food. I’ve tried a couple of lamb dishes as
well as seafood. All have been seasoned and cooked to perfection, and the
portions definitely worth what you pay.
Would any of us go back? You betcha!
