Breakfast at the Cornerstone Cafe

If you find yourself in Alphabet City, and you like delicious, well-priced breakfasts, well then mosey on over to the Cornerstone Cafe and put your fat face (it's cute! makes you look young!) into a pile of these pancakes !

They are lovely and light, absorbent of all things maple syrup, and can come in a variety of forms and fashions including blueberry, bananas and fresh fruit.  

They also make the perfect appetizer if you find yourself among a great group of friends who are willing to partake in a little carb-party.

Harry oversees Jean's pancake cutting skills, while Heather is excited for the fluff !

So airy and delightful!

After the pancakes, we each went our separate ways for entrees.  Jean dabbled in a tomato-rich baked egg dish with a side of home fries.

Harry went eggs benedict.

And I went traditional with scrambled eggs and sausage patties.  The eggs were not as fluffy as I had hoped, but I still managed to shovel the entire bunch down my maple syrup-lubricated throat.  The sausage was fat and fine.  Heather got a similar dish with a slice of grilled ham (in the background).

That morning, we drank from a pitcher of mimosas, and the day seemed our oyster !  And it was ! Get yours !
