Brunch of Champions

So as is usually the case, a healthy dinner and early breakfast of oatmeal was in need for balancing. Before getting our day started, Jenny and I allowed ourselves to be seduced into Netties Sunday Brunch.

Netties, as the sign says, has been serving Silver Lake before it was cool. The 80's that is. And now, the original owner and chef have decided to step down. In the effort to transition the restaurant into a place she'd be proud of, the owner has begun a slow transition to a new chef. This Sunday brunch is part of the transition and so far they have provided it for the last four weeks.

This is one exceptional Brunch. Pricey, but delicious. A brief attempt to go healthy, we considered going with just one main dish and some sides....we quickly returned to our senses and ordered 1. A BLTA open face on a cheddar chive waffle. 2. Soy Chorizo scramble. In addition, we were served an appetizer of goat cheese and honey on toast.

The BLTA was the fanciest damn BLT I’ve ever had, and really good. Thick premium bacon, greens, avocado topped with a garlic lemon aioli all piled on a savory waffle. How could that not be good? And it was. Enough said.

The scramble was spicy and zesty. Served with small sides of sour cream and salsa. Very good.

They serve Bloody Mary's and Champaign as well, but we didn't go that far.
