Score: 8
Best for: The Vice-President of the United States
Parking is easy (not always so in Houston), and the staff are welcoming. My coffee was already on the table when I arrived – good call, Miguel. Neither of us had been before, and by the dark furnishings we figured it probably gets busy on Friday and Saturday nights. Thinking of that, I made a mental note to come back for dinner one day. We decided quickly – I went for tacos (yum!) and he a kimchi burger (with house-made kimchi – impressed they take the time, and the smell!). While we waited we ogled nearby tables of food and my coffee was refilled without asking. Lovely.
The order:
- Breakfast Taco Plate – black bean taco (no queso), Tofu taco (no feta or crema), home fries, extra egg
- Kimchi Burger – cabot cheddar, house-made kimchi, sunny-side up egg, aioli, bulgogi sauce, fries
- Brewed coffee (free refills)
- Traditional cappuccino
To try next time:
- Russian Pancakes – family recipe thin pancake, seasonal jam, powdered sugar
- Third Coast Benedict – buttermilk biscuit, tasso ham, poached eggs, tomatillo sauce, cumin hollandaise, side salad
