Yes, we’re a pancake house. We’re also the place where you can eat clean and still leave happy. Here’s what to order.
1. The Energy Breakfast
Egg whites, lean chicken breast, tomatoes, mushrooms, green onions, and fresh sautéed spinach with your choice of toast. Protein forward, vegetable heavy, and it eats like a real meal instead of a compromise.
2. Chicken Breast Omelette
Diced lean chicken breast folded into egg whites, served with cottage cheese or fresh fruit and toast. This is the one our regulars order before the gym, not after.
3. The Health Club
Two poached eggs on a toasted English muffin or multi grain toast, with cottage cheese and fresh fruit. All the satisfaction of eggs benedict, none of the hollandaise.
4. Heart Healthy French Toast
Whole grain wheat bread dipped in our egg substitute batter, grilled golden, topped with fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or bananas. Sugar free syrup available. Yes, French toast made the list.
5. Crunch Berry Oatmeal
Homemade oatmeal made with skim milk, fresh strawberries and blueberries, topped with heart healthy granola. Warm, filling, and under the radar.
6. Country Baked Oatmeal
Our heart healthy oatmeal with raisins and bananas, finished with brown sugar. Comfort food that happens to be good for you.
7. Anything off the Salads, Broiler, or Seafood menu
Come at lunch or dinner and there’s a whole other side of us. Fresh salads and cold plates, broiled entrées, and fresh seafood, all served in the same warm room. We’re open until 9 PM daily now.
A few things that help:
Ask for egg whites or egg substitute on any omelette. Swap hash browns for fresh fruit or cottage cheese. Multi grain toast is always an option. Gluten free pancakes are available on request. Our kitchen reads every note, so ask.
