i've been to the porch in burleson for breakfast twice. the first time i had the greek omelette which came with hash browns and another side. i selected two pancakes. the other options were grits or hash browns. the omelette had fresh spinach folded into it and looked as good as it tasted. it is an excellent version. the pancakes were fluffy, about a half an inch thick.
my recent visit with a friend found us at breakfast again. this time i ordered the texas scramble. this was scrambled eggs layered along with a small to medium sized chicken fried steak, home fries, all atop texas toast. this was completely smothered with a ton of lightly peppered cream gravy. a small cup of jalapenos were served along with this. i spent a little while looking this over and began dotting the gravy with the jalapenos. when my server came and asked if everything was okay, she noticed my decorating my plate and laughed. i hadn't even tried it yet. this was odd especially since it was a very long wait between ordering and receiving our meals--probably about thirty minutes. once i did try it, i gave it a thumbs up. coffee is always good here, very strong, but without a burntness that i always notice in a starbucks regular coffee. service every time i've been here has been great! they never let your coffee reach a halfway mark.
my dining partner had the french special: eggs, sausage and home fries with french toast. she liked the meal, although she noted that the home fries were not fresh, but frozen.
the hardwood floors really need a cleaning though. the last time i was here, a few years ago, the flooring was new and everything was spotless. this time they had streaks of mud at the entrance. it looks like they have added more tables. on busy days, you would be bumping elbows with some of your neighbors. didn't have that problem on this recent visit though. they have window unit air-conditioning, but it was sufficient during my last summer visit. of course they have a small front porch in which to have your meal if you so desire. they also have a small selection of pies from which to choose. a pie case sits at the entrance. the porch serves a solid breakfast, but also offers lunch and dinner as well.
