I’ve realized lately that a lot of my posts have to do with breakfast. What can I say? I love breakfast. As I know I have said this many times before…just give me eggs and coffee to make me happy.

This past Sunday I found myself at Longfellow Grill for breakfast. Scanning the menu, I saw items such as the breakfast burrito and the classic eggs, bacon and toast combo. Both of these selections I have enjoyed several times before at Longfellow and would be considered a usual order for me. For some reason, however, I was in a sweet mood…a very sweet mood. Almost without thinking, I ordered the Killer Banana Waffle. Thankfully Ed had his camera so I could share the above picture with you.

Crisp waffles, stacked high on the plate, topped with a huge ice cream-sized scoop of homemade whipped cream and drizzled with some sugary, rich caramel sauce was set before me. I never order sweet things for breakfast, but I had definitely hit the jackpot on this one. The waffle was so light, but crisp and the bananas were so sweet; it was unbelievably good. I believe all my breakfast companions would also agree that this waffle is the best in town.

Wrapping up this sweet story, I do have to mention my breakfast, Part 2. One of my breakfast companions was my dad, who knows me so well. He heard me order a waffle and then just happened to order two breakfasts, one was for us to share – two eggs and toast. It was a perfect morning…a sugary sweet waffle with a classic egg and toast combo chaser. Life was good.
