Deep in the heart of Leander, TX, lies one of the best kept brunch secrets around. Mike and I were in the mood to try something new without having to drive too far. We drove up to a cute little building with a large porch. We opted for indoor dining, despite the gorgeous weather. We simply prefer eating without nature's friends. It was approximately 1 pm and we had brunch and breakfast options to choose from on the menu. I didn't want to feel stuffed so I ordered a half order of French toast and a side of jalapeño cheese grits. Mike ordered the Lagniappe (lan-yap) so he could sample a bit of everything. Our food was delicious! I love my French toast that was made with French bread and cinnamon. The grits were excellent too. The jalapeño added a great kick to a dish that can be bland. Mike got soooooo much food, but it was all amazing. His meal included bacon, handmade sausage patties, a ham steak, grits, hash browns, eggs, and a biscuit with gravy. His favorite part was the sausage patty, which was super yummy. I tried some of the biscuit and gravy and loved it. His plate definitely conquered him, but he did get to try a bit of everything. We were very satisfied with our meals and we be back to try more items on the menu.
