It’s Always Morning in Rosedale at The Omelettry

November 19, 2013 by cwsapts

The Omelettry proves that omelets don’t just have to be for breakfast. Located right on the corner where Burnet Road meets West 47th Street, the Omelettry is a place where it's always morning. That’s because the Omelettry serves breakfast until dinnertime! This is a cool spot with funky paintings on the outside walls and a dining area that defines casual. But the word is out, so be prepared to wait a bit on the weekends. The menu features many traditional breakfast plates, but locals really like the specials (try the Popeye Omelet with spinach, the Eggonomica, or the Gingerbread Pancakes). You can also create your own omelet! Come back for the lunch specials, or just have breakfast again! And remember, this is a cash-only establishment.

Authentic Mexican Cuisine at Austin’s Fonda San Miguel

November 12, 2013 by cwsapts

Since 1975, Austin diners have indulged in Fonda San Miguel’s authentic regional Mexican cuisine. Diners are impressed with just about everything that comes out of the kitchen, its hard to make a wrong choice. The quesos asados are popular starters – try the queso with homemade chorizo verde. If you’re looking to indulge, the lobster mango ceviche is also highly recommended. Their signature entrees are the chicken mole, and the cochinita pibil, a Yucatan dish of pork baked in banana leaf. Save room for dessert, the tres leches cake is delicious. Fonda San Miguel also offers a Sunday brunch buffet with plenty of options, ranging from quail to fajitas, along with many sides. Customers rave it is worth the pricy $40. The beautiful hacienda-style decor with hand painted stucco and dim lighting makes Fonda San Miguel a popular spot for celebrating special occasions. If you want the experience on a budget, stop by during happy hour for half price appetizers and drink specials.

Kick Start Your Day With Proper Breakfast

November 8, 2013 by cwsapts

A proper breakfast is the best way to start the day, so why not do so at the Proper Breakfast restaurant? Located where Medical Parkway meets Marathon Boulevard, Proper Breakfast was founded by two friends who wanted to make tasty food using local products. That’s why most of the ingredients at Proper Breakfast are procured from neighboring farms. Everything — the eggs, dairy, meat, even the syrup and coffee — is grown or produced close by, which translates to a fresh, delicious breakfast for you! It is not a big menu here, but you don’t need it when you’re drinking fresh, locally roasted coffee and eating the freshest egg you’ve ever tasted outside of a farm. And the pancakes are gluten-free! Proper breakfast is open every morning until 2 p.m.
