After jobsite visit, Bagel Boy and I desperately need some food to cure our hunger. We were debating between either Memphis cafe or Rooster Cafe. Since I already been to Memphis Cafe, we end up settling with this place. I actually came here once before but it was at night while they had “Hidden Kitchen”, the owner rent the restaurant out during some night time. Food wasn’t bad, but it’s a little more upscale compare w/ what Rooster Cafe offered. What’s unique about Rooster Cafe is that they open late from 10pm – 3am on Fridays and Saturdays, so people.. if you are looking for something simple to eat after everything else closed, here’s another place for consideration.

 
Base on what I heard about the place is that their breakfast burrito is amazing and you can order it anytime during store hours. But I was craving for something more like a sandwich, so I pick “French Dip” instead..then I saw “Grilled Cheese”… yuummm..that sounded really good, so I order one of them too figure that Bagel boy would help me with my food. Bagel boy ordered “The Randolph”, like what he usually does.

  
  
Obviously Bagel boy liked his sandwich, It looked very summery to me, color combination plus it’s cold (I assume it’s cold sandwich). To my surprised I thought the Grilled Cheese sandwich was pretty good, I like it more than the French Dip. French Dip was good, but the meat was tougher than I expected, and it wasn’t all that unique. Au Jus was kindda salty to my liking.

  
Those pictures were taken from another take out, Mexican Hot Chocolate and the Early Riser. The Mexican Hot Chocolate has some spices which was pretty unique, different with a little hint of spiciness. The fried egg inside the Early Riser was perfectly done w/ over easy in the center. Those two makes a delicious breakfast combo.
