god bless the french! as my most recent review had stated, i had pretty much given up on finding agoodbreakfast in santa fe.
i had stopped here a few weeks back, but they were on 'spring break' and closed for a week.
as i drove by today, even though it was packed, i decided to exercise my patient side and hope for the best.
the luck of the irish came through via a french vessel, known as clafoutis.
i decided to go à la carte and ordered the waffle, a side of scrambled eggs and bacon.
the waffle was baked perfectly, drizzled with chocolate syrup, and presented with a single raspberry on top.
the bacon was spot on and some of the best i have had eating out. it was only $2, so i actually had (2) sides.
eggs were fluffy and flavorful. the service was excellent, despite the packed house and the french roast was a very full-bodied,goodcoffee.
i will visit once more before departing santa fe in a couple weeks.

unexpected to be back in santa fe during summer, but the best part is being able to enjoy clafoutis a few more times. little did i know, they serve hash browns! they are very flavorful, buttered perfectly and my new favorite!
wonderful to sit on the patio in the early hours, before the heat gets too intense. the owners are so nice and they pour their heart and soul into this place. the mother/daughter team handles the front end and the father comes in each morning at 1am to make all the delectable pastries, in true french tradition.
don't miss this gem. super busy, limited parking. the only knock, if there is one, is the consistency of waitstaff. super nice, but sometimes the language barrier results in sending an item back. enjoy!
