    We've been sitting here for nearly 40 minutes now and yet, no sign of our food. Took them 25 minutes to bring a blueberry cake over to our table -a normal slice of cake, not freshly baked or anything.

    The Plow is your best bet at breakfast. Their potatoes are to die for. Opt for sausage over bacon.

    The menu rotates and EVERYTHING is fantastic...but the breakfast potatoes are here to stay, for good reason. Best in the city.
