Brunch at Cora's

Kids' French Toast

Hubby and I usually do not get excited over food we can easily make at home. This is why having brunch, for no special reason, does not come naturally. We can make all types of eggs and cute pancakes in our own kitchen, after all! A recent birthday celebration, however, took us to Cora’s.

Since I do not make crepes at home, that is what I ordered. I realized later on that I should’ve opted for some stuffed savoury crepes instead of the plain ones. While I got some fruits and bacon on the side, this meal was not very satisfying. Another thing I could’ve ordered was Eggs Benedict…oh well.

The kids had something from the Kids’ Menu--French Toast.  Hubby actually makes this at home, albeit not as fancy. The kids enjoyed it and finished their meals quickly. Getting bacon from other plates, though, made brunch even faster for DD#2.

Chicken Salad Sandwich

Hubby had a Chicken Salad sandwich which he said was just okay. Grandma had a Cora’s Special consisting of two eggs, bacon, ham, sausage and a pancake (replacing crepe). Meals at Cora’s don’t come very cheap as you would expect with simple dishes. However, they were nicely presented—which is what you might be paying for in the end. The ambience is nice and cheery, leaving you with a great feeling to start the day. Bottomless coffee is not bad, but not great either. But hey, if you wanted better coffee, you could get it at Starbucks. All in all, it is a nice brunch place for meeting up with friends, but not necessarily something I will crave. Have a good morning!
