Here and there, the menu sports fillips of gourmet flair such as chicken pine nut salad.  Breakfast is popular here, and once you see the offerings, you understand why: pesto scrambled eggs; a lox plate; tofu scrambled with green onions, mushrooms and tomatoes; meatless biscuits and gravy; eggs Cubano with black beans and salsa; almond French toast; and house-made pastries.
