Pretty good Jo!

Well Sunday is here at last! "back to the blog" Today the destination for the hungry four was Glo's a little and I mean little cafe just on the edge of Capital hill on Olive. Ken and I dropped the girls off out front and we tried to find to find a place to park. Now if you've ever attempted to park on or around Capital hill you know that if you decide to park where its posted not to, you will immediatly be put to death! but we lucked out and found a spot within walking distance
Glo's like I said is tiny but they pour you a cup of coffee and let you stand outside to wait your turn, how nice! We didn' t have to wait much more than 10 minutes and we were seated, darn lucky again because once we were seated it appeared the entire population of Cap hill was waiting their turn to injest some of Glo's grub. Yep, same ol same ol , the tatooed Waitress brought me a coffee,Ken had hot tea, Val had her use, small oj. M Sue ordered Ice Tea w/lemon and the reply was "sorry " no ice tea... WHAT ? ooohhh she was not happy at all but she smiled and said water will be fine. Well for a tiny place,Glo's had quite the menu, Val ordered "Eggs Blackstone" kind of a Benedict with spinach instead of the meat, the eggs were poached well and it was served with browns plenty , a pretty big plate of food! She Liked it. Ken had "Eggs Nicholas" a scrambley sort of thing withs sausage and veggies He liked his as well l but they did forget his toast ,no big deal really, there was plenty of food .I ordered the "Huevos Rancheros" Three eggs over easy piled with beans, avocado,onions ,black olives,jalapenos and cheese all on top of corn tortillas, "most delicious" my quest for the great breakfast and the great coffee could have ended here , for both were excellant! Not so fast Bloggerinas, I have'nt mentioned M Sues food yet, My lovely Wife was a bit perplexed as too what she wanted , The Biscuits and gravy or a Scramble or one of the Benedicts that Glo's is apparently famous for, which was some info she said she wish she had before she ordered. She decided on the Biscuits , cuz I kinda talked her into it. You see Glo's Gravy is not Sausage it's a veggie based mushroom gravy,that while it looked good, she did not care for it! I'm sure there are some vegy folks out there that probably would like it ...but as far far as M Sue was concerned ,"not so much" Well I'll tell you there are a few things I have learned over the years about dining out with my bride of lo these many years and one of them is you should have Ice tea with lemon and plenty of it and you dont take the sausage out of the gravy!! I mean really, Veggie gravy, please! But all in all good food ,and whats more really good coffee! The coffee is from a company called Pegasus, they are on Bainbridge Isl. We all decided we would go again to Glo's, MSue would of course order differantly.
