Mimi’s Cafe- for breakfast. It is good at this chain.

mmm-yoso!!! is the food blog.  There are a few bloggers who participate. We tell you about what we ate. Today, Cathy returns with a ‘follow up’/continuation post.  Enjoy.

Hi.  A few months ago, I told you The Mister and I got a gift card for Mimi’s, and we went there for a late dinner.  I had heard about the breakfasts being good here, and a few comments back to me were complimentary of the breakfasts.  Well, you know, there was still some money left on that gift card and all…

Dsc01686 All of the breakfasts come with a choice of juice- I got tomato and The Mister got grapefruit (we have a Toccara blood orange tree in our backyard and have all the OJ we could ever want) and his breakfast also came with a choice of muffin. This one is blueberry and is low fat- they use applesauce instead of oil in making it. The taste was full and rich and I would not have known it was made without fat if I had not been told. Oh,it was also served warm….mmmm. Dsc01687_3 The rest of The Mister’s breakfast. The Shrimp Artichoke Feta omelet ($8.59)- A "Seasonal Special" (the menu here adds some seasonal items every 6 weeks or so-appetizers,  entree salad, entrees, dessert and breakfasts, as well as a seasonal muffin) A three egg omelet stuffed with diced shrimp, artichoke hearts and feta cheese.  Topped with feta cheese, too.

My breakfast…The "Pain Perdu"… two poached eggs, nice, thick, crispy cooked, very flavorful bacon and the red skinned potatoes…and of course, the Pain Perdu.

Dsc01690Ah, a cross section cut of the Pain Perdu – petite french toast stuffed with cream cheese and orange marmalade.Dsc01691 Served with real  maple syrup. Very rich filling, crispy exterior, fluffy interior of the french toast… and I think this could become addictive. 

A cross section cut of The Mister’s omelet…you can see it was light and fluffy and stuffed with good sized, flavorful shrimp and whole artichoke hearts. 

All in all, a wonderful breakfast.  Including coffee, before tip, this meal was about $22, and very much worth it.  Very fresh, high quality ingredients.
