I did an investigation of the Mirth Cafe this weekend. As the "unofficial guide to all things Lawrence", I need to be able to respond to questions about this establishment.
The place was hopping at 10:15 am. Bill (bottom right corner) said it was because everyone knew that he was working. Mugs came to the table fast. Self serve coffee? Good idea!
I had the Blackstone Eggs. Eggs Benedict with the addition of fresh sliced, grilled, tomatoes and bacon. Oh my. The English muffin was a little crisp, but not too crisp which would have made it hard to cut. The bacon was a little smoky, the tomatoes were sweet, the egg yolk golden and runny, the hollandaise silky. Put all that together with some new potato hash browns and good coffee and you got the perfect start to the weekend.
Nancy I'll meet you and Meredith and Bob there anytime you say. Next time bring Marti too please. We have things to talk about.
What a great name for an eatery! I hope you can get Mirth by the cupful?
You have such unique coffee houses, cafe's, etc. We have the usual chain jobs...cookie cutter environments...BLAH!
