Canopy Cafe, Winter Park - Closed
I went to this little breakfast/lunch cafe on Pennsylvania (near Coop) on Sunday. It was Tolla's two years ago. They close at 2pm. I had the Chef's Special omelette for $10. It was probably a two egger. It was filled (not stuffed) with mushrooms, tomato, ham and some cheese was melted on top. It was mostly ham. Two types. Little cubes of what tasted like honey baked and maybe some really fried Canadian bacon. The mushrooms seemed desiccated. The tomatoes had no taste. The eggs were bland as well. It came with a choice of potatoes. I chose home fries. They were a little (just slightly) undercooked. It also came with toast or biscuit. I almost went with an eggs benedict of smoked salmon on a cream cheese bagel, but, it is disgusting isn't it? The rest of the menu is what you would expect. Sandwiches and breakfast fare. The guy next to me had a nice looking pancake. The look of the place and the canopied patio is probably the main thing that separates this from a dime a dozen diner/cafe. The inside is a little "blase" with the mass market French decorations and exposed work areas. I think they are actually going for a French Cajun affect. They have a painting of Cafe du Monde inside and I recall some similarities with their awnings and the faux awning accents inside. The outside is black. In any event, the staff (5 for maybe 15 tables) was polite and polished and conscientious. The place was full of what seemed like happy, repeat customers (even towards closing). It's not a wheel reinvention, but, it's a wheel. There is no way I am writing " a wheel good time" or a "wheel good wheel". You would have to be a real lug wrench to write that.
