I also ordered a side of corned beef hash because I really wanted to try it, I wanted a bit of meat to go with my carb overload, and this would free up Travis’ order for something else. I went with the Red-Eye Velvet and Pineapple Upside Down pancakes, and then a sweet potato pancake on Julie’s recommendation. This meant I could choose three additional pancake flavors for my flight. Julie brought us a surprise first: one pancake of the day, which was a fluffy, almond buttermilk pancake with almonds, caramel, and a persimmon compote. The lightweight in my wanted to focus on food and not booze. We stuck with coffee and didn’t go for a cocktail since we were also going to the San Diego Bay Food & Wine Festival Grand Tasting in just a few hours. This knowledge completely changed our ordering strategy. When I mentioned how excited I was about the pancake flight, she told us that you can also order half orders of French toast, two kind of eggs benedict for each plate (since they come two to an order) and just about any side you want. Our lovely and totally sweet server, Julie, went over the basics of the menu with us and brought us coffee to get started. I wasn’t able to attend any of the fundraising media breakfasts Snooze held in San Diego before their official opening, but Bread and Butter PR was kind enough to arrange a time for us to come in and see if the food was as good as I remembered. Three different flavored pancakes on one plate so you didn’t have to choose just one. Long story short, it was delicious and what I remembered most was that they had a pancake flight on the menu. They don’t take reservations and we had a fairly large group, but I was determined to make it happen. At least now you know it.Īnyway, I found Snooze, read good things about it, and discovered it wasn’t too far from where we’d be staying. When this happens, I’m actually a little grump until the next meal or snack makes up for it. Other times, you end up at a greasy diner grumbling because you’ve “wasted” a meal on bad food.
Yes, sometimes you discover a hole in the wall worth remembering. Leaving things to chance is how you end up at weird places by the side of the road or across the street from your hotel. When we’re out of town, I like to make sure that I have plenty of food options so we’re not leaving meals to chance. Snooze first entered my world when we were in Denver for the Great American Beer Festival. On the flip side, I want them to have lots of crowds that stick around so they’re successful, because I’m pretty sure they’ve just become my favorite place to eat breakfast. I’m almost hesitant to tell you about it because I will be sad when the wait becomes super long as word gets out. Just in case you haven’t heard, a fabulous new breakfast/brunch spot has opened up in Hillcrest. Disclosure: Our meal was complimentary but I was not compensated for this review.
