Mike and Anne's



Sundays are meant to be like this. Nothing planned-nowhere specific to go. We took our little man out for a walk this morning and he ended up falling asleep so we decided to have breakfast out. We walked to Mike and Anne's in South Pasadena. This restaurant is our go to place when we're in the mood for a local breakfast that's within a reasonable walking distance...it's really not that close, but it's fine. My husband always has doubts that I can make it there without pulling a muscle, or complaining about a sore side.

So Mike and Anne's is a good place for breakfast-we like to sit outside in the patio. The food is good-it's not the most amazing thing in the world, but it's good food. I'm never blown away by it, but it's never a disappointment. We ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes and now that I think about it, I can't remember tasting the lemon. It was really good today. It's been somewhat forgettable in the past, but today it was really good. It's not fluffy like a pancake. It's kind of course yet super moist and has this great unexplainable flavor-the ricotta adds such great flavor to the dish. My husband ordered their corned beef hash as always and it was good.

It was just a great way to start our Sunday.
