I was happy to find all roads clear of ice both on the way to breakfast and afterwards.
The Midwest Breakfast Company has been mopen about ten years, but Liz and I had never been to it. It has a great reputation for food and is usually quite crowded. The only time we did think to go to it, there was too long of a wait to get seats.
Plus, I understand they are also on the expensive side, but these days all places are expensive. A breakfast anywhere is costing between $15 and $20 after paying for coffee and the tip.
The place wasn't crowded, but it did have a group of retired men there for a coffee club. One of them turned out to be the owner. I told him I was there because I didn't have electricity. He said he didn't either and that he lived in Orchard Bluff Estates subdivision as I do also.
People continued to come in while I was eating and having several more cups of coffee. What else did I have to do? Most of the people coming in were in my boat with no elecricity.
The breakfast was every bit as good as I had heard it would be and really not more pricey than you'd pay anywhere these days. Price: $10.50 for Denver omelet, coffee $2.75, tax $1.07 and tip $3. Just a bit ver $17. Like I said before, breakfast is expensive these days.
I was kind of hoping to have electricity at home by then.
