Another Broken Egg, Winter Park

A friend and I had lunch at this Louisiana based chain today. I had a classic bacon burger for $10 and he had a cheese omelet for $8. They hosed us both for around $3 for beverages. The burger was cooked close to medium rare. It tasted meatloaf-y. It was a thinnish patty. They abused it with some season blend. Ruined it. It came on a ciabatta roll. The bacon was good and it came with cheddar cheese. Why they don't call that out on in the title I have no idea. It also came with some decent "fries" in cube form. I guess so they can use them in the breakfast dishes too. My friends omelet looked dry and tough. It's in the old Truffles spot next to Chamberlain's in the Winter Park Village. They did nothing to the place so see that review if you want a description. They sat us in the back (worst seats in the house) though the place was half empty. Strike 1. The menu prices should be slashed in half. $13 for eggs benedict? Do people know how easy it is to poach an egg. It's a damned $1 (on sale) Egg McMuffin. Strike two. They serve a blase menu of mostly bennies and omelets and burgers. Strike three. They try and throw in a little Louisiana sass. Dullsville. One is coming to Lake Mary. I'll warn them. Bob Evans serves the same purpose and is half as expensive. Service was fine. Do I dare say they laid an egg? You are right. Too obvious. How about - Another Broken Promise? Heart?
