3. My house! What can I get ya sugah??
I'd suggest Waffle House, but they're 100% red, so I wouldn't eat there if they're the only place on earth you could get food. That and I have all my own teeth and don't have 4 children by 4 different men. Yep...you guessed it - liberal elitest. :)

12. I can make all that too
well, not grits - I hate grits, but I make my friend potatoes from scratch. I prefer red potatoes and I leave the skins on them and if there is parmsean cheese in the house I add a little bit of it. And my potatoes are healthy - grilled in extra virgin olive oil

4. Yes - my place
I can make breakfast anytime I want and it's alot cheaper than dining out.

I just bought a dozen eggs last night and I usually have some canadian bacon in my freezer - how do you want your eggs done

15. Around 11 am, I think
It was a typical diner, plastic red seat covers on the short bar stools kind of deal, couple tables to go around, some cops. Very typical city diner.

11. I prefer a truck stop.
Maybe find yourself a good greasy spoon. Breakfast anytime and huge portions! Everything is made to your specifications and the atmosphere is colorful, to say the least.

21. The Greenhouse in Harvard Square
Edited on Mon Jul-11-05 01:31 PM by Kathy in Cambridge
:puke: They suck but they serve breakfast all day. The S&S in Inman Sq is overpriced but you can get breakfast there all day too.

The Greek place in North Cambridge. Name escapes me right now. Andy's on Mass Ave serves breakfast all day too. If you go over to Allston/Brighton there's quite a few diners there. Is the Grecian Yearning still there I wonder? Brookline has quite a few diners with breakfast all day also.

Mike's City Diner in the South End on Washington has great breakfast until 3 PM.

30. Some towns do good breakfast, some don't.
It's like there's either 1000 great places to eat pancakes at midnight, or none.

I live in a town that has no breakfast. Great dinners, no breakfast, no time. :shrug:
