Morning Meals
And Toulouse Petit commits to its morning happy hour.

Recently Toulouse Petit announced it would make its bargain-heavy breakfast promotion a permanent fixture. Monday through Friday from 9 to 11am, all entrees on the massive breakfast menu are now $6. Well, almost all. The two exceptions are the steak and eggs, $10, and the Louisiana blue crab eggs Benedict, $9.
Anyway, another morning-time announcement just hit my inbox: Beginning this weekend, Emmer and Rye will start serving a weekend-only breakfast. On the menu will be the restaurant’s farro fries—a big hit at dinnertime already, even though the restaurant has been open only a week. Another enticing offering: vanilla rum french toast with strawberry compote.

The city’s best breakfast panini is perfect in the park on an unseasonably warm day.

You know what is a little strange? When people say “global warming” every time there is an unseasonably warm day. I’m no global warming naysayer, but are they crazy? Do they think it’s that simple? When it’s cold and rainy like it’s supposed to be in winter, does that mean there’s no such thing as global warming? I’m pretty sure I just committed some kind of logical fallacy but come on now.
Let’s move on.
Next time there is an unseasonably warm day, I suggest you do this. Grab your significant other or that friend with whom you are basically living until one of you finds a significant other, and go to Oddfellows. Order two breakfast panini ($8 each, worth it) and two iced americanos and take them on over to Cal Anderson park—I like that grassy knoll near the playground equipment.
The breakfast panino is two ginormous pieces of toasty-but-soft, spongy, buttery bread between which are smashed cheddar, tomato, and bacon and onto which are tossed two fried eggs. It’s a little piggy, but it comes with a green salad, which squares things up nicely. Have a jog around the park if you’re feeling guilty, or listen to your shrink when she says that guilt is an emotion that you choose whether or not to feel. Either way, you’re gonna have a very, very good breakfast.
