When it comes to dining, it's fair to stick to the "everything in moderation" camp —e but when it comes to to offering sweet dishes on brunch and breakfast menus, all bets are off. Luckily there are plenty of sweet-tooth solutions around town on any given morning from indulgent riffs on everyday favorites to novelty sugar bombs. From the syrup-drenched pancakes at Kerby Lane and light-as-air waffles at Trace to the overindulgent French toast at Jacoby's to the slightly-messy-but-worth-it beignets at Épicerie, this guide highlights the town’s best spots for getting your morning sugar buzz.
Not convinced sweet is the way to go when the sun comes up? Those who have a bias toward sugar in the morning will tell you that breakfast accoutrements such as bacon and eggs can balance the meal so you have the full bodied savory-sweet experience perfect to jump start any day. So dig in, and live a little — or a lot. And make it a really good morning.
