    Boco Going Out to Eat for Breakfast

    Do you do this often? Where do you like to go?

    Hux and I are in love with a little place in town called Main Street Over Easy which has some amazing stuff. Of course there's always IHOP too, but some of the local places are great.

    Breakfast out is not really a thing here. I guess it's because everybody is just hungover from the night before. In any case, I did love IHOP while I was there in the US.

    There are so many freaking brunch places in the Bay Area. It seems like there's more brunch than dinner places, at least around here. We've been to most of them and they're alright. A lot of times we don't wake up early enough for it.

    Anyone live near a Black Bear Diner? They're a large-ish chain in the north west and they have the best breakfast ever. Such huge plates and delicious sausage...

    Dammit, now I want breakfast.

    The Griddle Cafe in Hollywood has the best breakfast food in the world. Their oreo pancakes are insaaaane. Peanut butter french toast, Mexican scramble with chipotle mayo, pico de gallo, chorizo and amazing fresh tortilla chips, BRICKS of fried breakfast potatoes.

    I'm an impatient person and the 1 hour wait to get into this place is thousand times worth it. If you're ever in the area, you must go.

    Aside from Griddle Cafe, I don't love going out for breakfast. I hate paying for things I can make at home. I make killer cornmeal pancakes, great omelettes, frittatas, and fairly decent home fries. Unless a restaurant has something really special in their breakfast menu, there's really no point in going out to eat for breakfast.

    Unless you go out for donuts. Donuts are always worth it.

    I don't have the tummy for it. Eating a whole meal for breakfast makes me feel sick (and the portions are huge in restaurants)!

    I do like when Necronopticous makes pancakes, though. He makes chocolate-chip pancakes for me!

    There's nothing quite like the morning after a big drinking session going to the local greasy spoon and getting a Full English... Bacon, Sausage, Black Pudding, Fruit Pudding, Eggs, Tomatoes, Mushrooms with maybe some Potato Scones (they're more Scottish/Irish though) or Hashbrowns (american) and baked beans (definitely an English thing) If that doesn't cure the hangover then nothing will.

    Did it a fair few times while I was at uni, but generally I avoid doing it if I can; I can make breakfast cheaper at home and won't have to wait as long for it.

    First I've ever heard of it. I just had to Google it and find out what it even was.

    I start at five or six in the morning for work, so going to an actual sit down place for breakfast is not an option. However, there is a pancake house around here that I used to frequent that was damn good. I miss that place.

    IHOP is a crock of trout. International my ass. It only exists in the USA and CANADA and that doesn't make you international. That makes you North American. smurfing lying bastards.

    My favorite place I ate breakfast ever was The Silver Skillet in Atlanta. Holy jeebus that place had good food.

    I don't really go out for breakfast, or brunch either. You can't wear your jammies when you go out for breakfast.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
