Default More Culinary Choices in Southern Trace

Two buildings - a restaurant and a coffee shop - will be built on 466 in the vacant lot between BB&T and Village Dental.

Thumbs down Beef O Brady

Tried Beef O Brady yesterday afternoon. It was terrible and makes me continue to question why we can't get more good restaurants in The Villages? We have a few but they are far and in between. Have been here over 10 years and that is a continuing problem?

Because, people settle for junk as long as its cheap & they don't have to cook--

Why go out for breakfast- I can knock out a couple of eggs, coffee and toast-with bacon under 5 minutes & Mr. Bosch does the dishes

Which location? Please be specific because different locations have different owners, some even corporate-owned.

Eggs, coffee and toast--boring. I want something I'm not willing to take a half hour or more to make at home. Plus the ambiance of going out to eat.

I could very well make corned beef hash from scratch, eggs benedict, avocado toast, a terrific blueberry pancake, etc... but do I want to.

Rae Rae's will make it for me, and much more. Or First Watch.

Yeah, if he does that in under 5 minutes, I wouldn't feed it to my dog. He's obviously using the microwave for bacon and that's just downright low class.

Bacon from Cracker Barrel two strips, in my cast iron pan, two eggs in when bacon almost done, sunny side up, toast pushed down at egg drop. 5 minutes is about right.

I agree breakfast is our least restaurant outings.

Homemade corned beef hash does take longer. I prep leftovers when I make corned beef, vacuum bag, and freeze in portions. It’s getting the crispy crust that takes forever.to cook.

My eggs Benedict is in my souvide. That is couple minutes prep, and eat whenever we chose.
