Lately I’ve had a sugary cakey donut craving that just won’t quit. Like Homer Simpson, I wake up in the AM and hear the call of the coffee machine truly muffled by the call for DONUTS. It was perfect timing to get an invitation to a Yelp Elite event at The Donut Expirement in Saint…
9934 Old Baymeadows Rd, Jacksonville, FL 32256 (904) 641-4877 We called Deerwood Diner around 9:00 am to see if they were opened. They told us they certainly were and to come on in! We couldn’t say no to that invitation. First Quasi Mother’s Day Meal We had our Mother’s Day Brunch at the re-opened Deerwood…
Sometimes a big greasy breakfast brunch is the crowning moment of a busy weekend. At least last week it was. The craving had started a few weeks ago. My boyfriend suggested we go to Waffle House, but once we drove there, he realized that location was actually a Denny’s. How can you get the two…
Welcome to the World of Free Feasting. The Venue: The Brand New First Watch in Brooklyn Riverside. The occasion. A pre-opening Elite event. I received my nomination and acceptance to the Elite Yelpee world last year. After making sure I had plenty of reviews left, the fearless Matthew C, who runs the Jacksonville Elite squad,…
Not every brunch dawns with the smell of cozy coffee, poached eggs and Napalm.

Is the smell of sausage grease, brewing coffee and pancake syrup reason enough to get out of bed on the weekend? I think so. You can shake off the slumber of the methodical work week and the demands of shower, type, write reports, repeat with that first sip of diner coffee, cradled in a ceramic…
Before I even moved to this city, I’d heard tell of Maple Street Biscuit Company. It was a breakfast option when I was visiting Jax for a Nav20 Conference. To manage a diverse group of dietary needs, we ended up at First Watch that morning, but the seed was planted. Curiosity awakened. We skipped out…
Step 1: Roll Out The Door with Coffee on the Brain Sometimes you just want breakfast. Sure, you might have eggs, some cereal, even waffle mix at home. But that requires cooking. Buying groceries, whisking yokes and washing dishes. It’s a whole thing. Heading to a diner to scarf down some brunch only requires you…
