The Scene
This place is easy on the eyes: Two small rooms with hardwood floors, solid wood tables, and walls painted in soft, muted tones. Owners and folk art collectors Rodney and Renee Carswell's eclectic taste permeates the space, from contemporary gothic paintings and displays of local photography to a curious pencil collection in a rack at the front counter.
The Food
The early menu offers hearty egg dishes, sandwiches, wraps, fresh soups, hot plates and fresh pastries. At breakfast, the enormous, delicious egg sandwich piles scrambled eggs, roasted peppers, spinach and basil mayo on thick brioche toast and is served with home fries. The chilaquiles winningly blend eggs, corn tortillas, onions and chicken topped with cheddar cheese and served with a warm tortilla and firm black beans. A dinner menu offers signature items like Frito pie and the ''Flo bowl,'' a melange of grilled shrimp, chicken, sausage, mushrooms and rice.
