in a world of mundane breakfast, succotash stands as an exception. breakfast might be the most difficult meal to draw the masses in with, largely due to the difficulty of differentiating one's menu enough from the competitors' to justify travel time above and beyond that of going to the nearest local eatery. and that is what makes succotash so special. their menu is what i would consider 1/2 classic and 1/2 unique (and not the type of unique you would associate with abstract art that completely escapes you, but rather the type that hits you every time you see a new invention that's so obvious, you're mad for the next week that you didn't think of it sooner). portions are large, the food is prepared with an obvious passion, and for some strange reasonservicehas improved since the recent move to 2601 holmes. so, if you find yourself feeling a little frisky in the morning (for food that is), and willing to go the distance, try succotash and have yourself a "cake" & a smile (which is actually on the menu).
