Breakfast at SC Cafe

When in San Clemente, we sometimes like to go to a very local place. We actually walked here to the SC Cafe from our house in about 5 minutes this morning. it is on El Camino Real just south of the 5 freeway on the west side of the road. if you blink, you will miss it. This place only seats about 13-15 small tables (2-4 people each) and is a favoriate hangout for surfers and locals. When we arrived, there was only one table open. The resteraunt is family run (Dad took our coffee order, son took our food order, daughter cleaned up the plates, dad took the money at the end).
I had French toast, eggs over medium, and sausage (and coffee). We had a good time... then walked the 527 yards back home again to do chores.

Rachels Birthday

Last night, we celebrated my youngest daughters 23rd birthday by going to her place of choice, Gullivers resteraunt in Newport Beach (actually, across the street from the Orange County Airport. This was John Wayne's favorite place to eat.
Three of us had the traditional Gullivers cut of prime rib, which also comes with creamed corn, creamed spinich and Yorkshire pudding. The photo shows my meal partly eaten, since I started eating in the excitement of the moment. It was a grand event, and a moment some great food. Happy Birthday Rachel.

Eggs Benedict

One of our favorate places to eat while at home is at "The Fisherman's" on the San Clemente pier.
One of my favorate meals is Eggs Benedict. After a nice walk with our friends Dwayne & Lisa Roberts, along the beach, we went to have breakfast. This is a photo of my breakfast, as well as the view from our table.
