Review: Dena's Diner South West Omelet

Today’s choice off the Breakfast Menu was the Southwest Omelet from Dena's Diner

I had a little bit of time to kill before an 11:00 meeting so I stopped into a place on the way. Dena's is a go to spot for me to grab some delicious grub for a great price.

The service there was great, but it was in part because I was the only person in the pace at 10am on a Wednesday. The Western Omelet was a weekly special, so I ordered it with a slice of french toast. The South Western omelet came with sweet corn, black beans, grilled chicken, cilantro, tomatoes, pepper jack cheese, salsa and sour cream. The salsa and sour cream was on the side so I could put as much or as little as I wanted.

The omelet was great. The ingredients were cooked in well and had great flavor. It was very scrumptious. The omelet had a good kick to it and wasn't so spicy that I didn't like it. (I am not a fan of spice) I typically don't like salsa and sour cream on an omelet but this one was better than any I have had before. The potatoes weren't the greatest but the french toast was creamy and delicious. I have had it before and it didn't disappoint.

I give the omelet a 4 out of 5 eggs.

The food and the service was great. The potatoes didn't quite hit a mark, but the rest of it was worth coming back to. If you want cheap eats made with a little but of care then I recommend Dena's Diner.

Recipe: Sweet Rice

Today's recipe was a family staple sweet rice, Most people would call this rice pudding. Its about the same, but we tend to eat it warm, where others may eat it cold. We also consider it to be a useful addition to any meal, be it as a side dish or a breakfast. The recipe is pretty easy, so I suggest you try it for yourself.

Review: Lemon Ricotta Pancakes at Cheesecake Factory

Today's choice off the Breakfast Menu was Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and the French Toast Napoleon from the Cheesecake Factory Today the wife and I decided to hit up the Cheesecake factory for brunch. We have eaten there once before for breakfast but that was so long ago that I did not have a clear memory of why we had never returned. A friend of ours really likes eating at the establishment and it had been forever since we ventured that way. The restaurant was of course packed to the gills but we discovered the secret of the bar area where, if you can grab a table, you can jump the line and get seated faster.

Review: Zoup!

Today’s choice off the Breakfast Menu was Zoup! Fresh Soup Company: Every now and again a friend will call me to sit down and bend my ear to their tales and troubles. Today was one of those days where I found myself on the other side of the table while a friend laid out a personal issue. We decided on Zoup! at Stetson Square. It specializes in various soups. They let you taste them before you buy, so you have the chance to try over a dozen different soups. The soups were tasty but not spectacular. It was a pleasant experience for a quick lunch.
