Well , well well...
Guess who has one functional thumb but who is still writing about what he had for breakfast? This Guy! Yep its been a while, but I've been a bit hobbled for a month or so, as most all of you know, for those that do not, a month ago I was struck by a car while commuting to work,broke my ankle, leg and my thumb... but I digress. We ate at a restaurant in Lake Oswego, The Biscuit Cafe, ( Sorry Duane) I have a buddy who lives in West Linn, just adjacent to Lake Oswego. We've talked about next time when in Oregon we'd get together for Bfast. We were helping Cassidy move to an apartment in Beaverton, you know recently graduated, and very proud parents Jim And Marysue along with Mike and Sheri Brown (Brians Parents, Cass's boyfriend) helped out the kids with some furnishings, groceries etc. Yes indeed it brought back memories for me, moving in to my first apartment... yada yada. So next time Duane, I will definately call. The Biscuit Cafe is in a sleepy little alcove of a Lake Oswegian version of a strip mall, that came highly recommended from our friends Eric and Patty Baker ( who live in Lake O) and after all it was Fathers Day and what better than to share our morning nosh with all involved as well as our friends Eric and Patty. Alas, Ol Hot T and Smoj were not in attendance, their daughter Amanda graduated from Oregon St that weekend so they were in Corvallis. So breakfast? Yep it was delicious, tho there was a bit of a wait to get in and a little mix up about who, what ,where how many , I dont know quite frankly I am just along for the ride considering my incopacitation , I just do what I'm told. But in we did get, and once in the staff at the Biscuit was quite accomadating . Sooo the 8 of us had a nice table by the window, beverages poured, orders taken ... all was good. Msue of course ordered a scramble of sorts, sausage,ham , cheese, veggies eggswelldonesideosalsa, and Browns extra crispy and of course plenty of Ice tea w/lemon to was it all down. ( I ate the leftovers this morning) Cassidy had the Southwest Scramble, same kinda thing her Mom had , but coffee instead of the Ice T, Brian ordered up the Chorizo Scramble,it was all gone so I expect it was good, coffee as well for Brian. Mike ( Brians Dad) had the Chicken fried Chicken, just like CFS only with chicken ,eggs over easy, along with buttery browns, again a dissappearing plate of food , coffee and a diet coke were his choice of beverage. Sheri went all plainjane , Eggs and potatoes... no meat, until Msue talked her into bacon, so she could have some . For some reason what Patty and Eric had escapes me, but you know the routine, Patty ate part of hers... chicks huh? Eric ate all of his, it was delicious and the world continued to turn. As for the Crippled Guy, I was pleasantly surprised to see a Southern Benedict on the menu, the only other place I've seen this is at the Chelan Cafe ( its delicious). What the Southern Benny is , is a homemade biscuit (also delicious) split. sausage patty, poached eggs ridin missionary style under a blanket of sausagetastic gravy mmmmmm MM! crispy Browns as well, washed down with coffee that was a bit slow in coming at first but adequate, a little dissappointing as it was not Stumptown Coffee, something I've grown accustomed to in P Town. So all in all it was pretty darn good and I will def return , for the french toast looked amazing, and the fact that Cassidy is there I have even more reason to head south. Also by the time I go back hopefully my leg cast will either be gone or at least a differant color, its green and yellow, I was trying for University of San Francisco colors.... in honor of Cass's Graduation,.... sadly its more University of Oregon than San Fran... needless to say Jim got a little tired of the GO DUCKS remarks... (again sorry Duane) poor guy's a Duck till death.... Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads.... 30 plus years since mines been gone... still miss him. Gone from here but still in my heart...
