Loveless Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee


My family and I visited Nashville, Tennessee recently for a family wedding.  One of our favorite stops for breakfast is the Loveless Cafe.  Just the biscuits alone are worth the trip.

Scrambled eggs, pork with BBQ sauce and grits.  The flavors together were wonderful. And darn fine coffee.  The grits were just right, and you could see the grains and seeds in them.  Most people like these with butter, but I like my bowl with Splenda.  Oh so yummy delicious.

Someone at our table had Belgium waffles and they were light and fluffy

This is the menu choice that I was personally torn between "Sweet Potato Pancakes" and I got a couple of bites.  They were ever so wonderful, light, fluffy and flavorful. 

Here is one left over box to go - the most yummy biscuits that you will ever eat.  And let's not forget the jam!

Diner Adventures

Arthur's in Orange, CA; Greatest Breakfast in Town is what their sign says.  It looks like a big old house on the outside, which opens up to a spacious ranch style dining room on the inside.  You'd swear you were in Oklahoma...I think they speak Okie here.

Cinnamon Raisin French Toast and it was divine with sweetness, and how I love the powdered sugar on the top, crispy edges and almost as good as what my mom used to make on special occasions.  Got a yummy cup of Joe and we were off and running!
Mom's French Toast
3 eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 7 slices of day-old bread, cut in half
Beat eggs, add milk, sugar, and salt and beat until well mixed.  Dip each piece of bread into this mixture for a few seconds; then lift into a heavy skillet in which butter has been heated, and cook until golden brown on underside; turn and cook on other side.  Add more fat as needed.  Serve at once with syrup or sugar.  4-5 servings
