“for real the french toast had this incredible contrast - like a crispy caramelized outside giving way to custardy softness inside with the maple syrup soaking in just right”
“the scrambled eggs were overcooked adn rubbery which completely lacked that creamy texture that makes breakfast eggs worth ordering”
